I work as a teacher via the internet. That means I don't work in a classroom, but in an office. I do talk to my students over the phone, but my exposure to nocie is pretty limited in my work.

I am also a singer in a country band an I always use earplugs and that's pretty frustrating, as I hear my own voice in my head when I'm singing.

I got T in 2002 during a rock concert, when I removed my earplugs. The day after my ears would ache when people around me clapped their hands. My T has worsened every two years or so and I've been over sensitive to loud noices, but the H has gotten worse the last couple of weeks.
