I was just listeing to an NPR piece about the problem of workplace noise, with some focus on noisy co-workers. For example, working near someone with a frequent loud cough is a miserable thing.
I don’t know if there’s a munchkin solution, but possibly being a noise consultant for businesses is a possible niche. Perhaps just selling white noise machines in bulk to businesses would work.

The munchkin solution is noise-cancelling headphones.
I assume that if you want to talk with someone, ambient white noise is better.
This comment taken out of context kind of delighted me.
It’a decent definition of small talk :-)
Uh-uh… yeah… No way! Oh, and then… How could she?! Yep… Hmm… I think so, too… Ummm…
At the level needed to drown out “frequent loud cough” you will need headphones just to escape that white noise X-/
