When I really need silence at work I use ear plugs in addition to construction grade ear muffs. I may look a bit silly but it really does block out almost all sound.

I've done that sometimes, leaving me alone with my tinnitus.

It's still better than the incessant jabbering of phone meetings and other office noise.

Some days, the noise puts me on the verge of another breakdown. And no one in management cares.
