Restaurant TVs.
I use mine all the time. Lobby's, waiting rooms, restaurants, bars... it's really nice to have it available. Especially when it's just me, waiting in the doctor's office, and I don't wanna hear or watch whatever is on. I can just mute it and enjoy the silence, or change the channel. It's not like I'm bothering anyone else anyway, I just don't wanna listen to a Fox News opinion piece at a loud volume, if ain't nobody else is watching either
Instead of messing with other people's things why wouldn't you just put in ear buds?
the lobby tvs are so annoying. if i'm alone for a while, i turn one off for a quiet section of the room
