The day-to-day workplace looks different for most people right now—especially those who find themselves abruptly working from home—and to make the experience less foreign, I Miss the Office shares familiar office sounds. I Miss the Office, an office noise generator, is a site that's dedicated to playing background noises from printers, clicking keyboards, squeaking armchairs, bubbling water coolers and more.
Unlike many ambient sound generators, this one is highly interactive and allows for people to customize the noises they'd like to add or subtract from their experience. Users are able to select the number of virtual colleagues they'd like to work alongside, and then also click to turn on other comforting workplace sounds.
