The All-Pervasive Muzak

I’m on the phone with FedEx, asking if I can pick up my package today. (I can’t)

He put me on hold to call the local FedEx center, and the hold music was EXACTLY the same as what was playing in my office.

Sync’ed exactly.

I pulled the phone away from my ear, sweet sounds floated down from above. Put the receiver back to my ear. It’s in surround sound now.

The Muzak is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now in this very room. You can hear it when you look out your window. Or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work. When you go to Church. When you pay your taxes. It is the music that has been pulled over your ears to blind you from the truth.
