It's typically done by those that hates everyone they work with and used as a means to avoid having to stop and listen to their BS all day.

You may find it rude or inconvenient that you are unable to speak to this person in passing, ask a question, or otherwise interact with them. That is fair, and probably a warranted reaction.
This person, by having their headphones in, is signaling that they do not want to interact with you. Is it not just as rude or inconvenient for them if you speak to them when they do not want to be spoken to? I think it's just as fair as the above point.
Where does this leave us?

Is this practice considered rude? It seems to be more and more common to see people with air pods or even over-ear headphones on. I'm not talking about when they are sitting at their desk. I'm talking about while walking around the office, heating up food in the kitchen, walking through the halls, going to the bathroom, etc. When I see somebody like this, I assume they don't want to interact with anyone in the office. I can't say I'm a big fan of this trend. It's hard enough to get people to actually work in-person in the office today, but if you are going to do it, at least show up and interact with people.
It's bad enough that they're forced into the office, you want to force them into pointless chit-chat with other co-workers, too?

I wear my Airpods most of the day. With transparency mode on so I can hear my surroundings.

I don't want to talk to people especially when I am out in the field. Also I can talk on the phone to one of my 875357 bosses while still working. If anyone considers it rude they can frick right off.

air pods in means they're working hard or not working at all imo

Not allowed in the hangar or on the flight line where I work. Safety purposes.

You need the ear buds that looks like hearing protection. I almost bought a pair when I worked for an airline.

Just because the ear buds are in doesn't mean they're on. Get off my lawn, gramps

You really have people wearing over the ear headphones walking around your office?
Yep. Have seen it at other offices as well.

I know this one chick that still holds her phone up to her ear on phone calls even when she has her earbuds in.
