PM I do like actually, a lot of my old coworkers put on rap, hiphop, grime, so I do run into a lot of really great artists. Some of my new coworkers are way younger and their choices are... Questionable to me. I had somebody lose their mind that I hadn't heard of some guy named after a boat, or another whose name was mostly symbols instead of letters.

For reference I'm from a punk/metal background, spun DNB/dub/garage records for a few years and have a deep appreciation for blues/jazz/soul, so I'm not one to dismiss music easily. Heck, I'll take a T Swift day when my fry cook is in the mood

I see I’ve found a another person who actually listens to everything. I drive a tow truck so sometimes I get too far away for my Bluetooth FM adapter and have to go with radio, who whoever I’m towing has a preference on what to listen to so that as well as just looking for new music gets me some good exposure, especially since growing up I had rap, country, pop, grunge, rock (and all sub genres such as metal and grunge for simplicity) so I’ve never been one to just shy away from music. I’ve had a few instances where I didn’t know of some new artist and me nephew (who’s 17) shows me absolutely awe struck I hadn’t heard of whoever it is

Absolutely love this. Working in kitchens you get exposed to a LOT of different music, so I count myself fortunate. Finding new artists is always a great feeling!

I make an active point of digging for music sometimes so I am kind of stuck in my own feedback loop, but we're always sharing songs and artists because you really never know
