What’s your go-to vibe while working on-site?

Curious how everyone here works on-site. Do you usually have music playing while you’re doing installs or troubleshooting, or do you prefer the natural hum of the job to stay focused? I know some people like background noise to keep the pace up and others want zero distractions. What works best for you and does it change depending on the kind of job you’re doing?
 
I’ll do music for installs, no question. But the second something doesn’t look right, earbuds come out. That hum of a panel tells you more than a song ever will.
 
Music for longer days, especially when I know I’ve got a full schedule. But if I’m tired or it’s a tight space, silence helps me stay sharp.

I like complete silence or the natural sounds of the job site to stay focused.
I think music is a distraction, it pulls my attention away
