    Wear long sleeve shirts.
    Feed earphone wire down sleeve.
    Sit with your arm propping up your head, thus bringing cuff into close proximity of ear.
    Profit?

    Re: So, I'm at work...

    Now look what you've made me do! I'm having to boot up my laptop because my workstation doesn't have any audio hardware and now I want to know what all the fuss is about!

    if I'd actually been getting any work done, this would have been a problem
