> I find it hard to concentrate in silence Great! Put on some headphones, then?

You can! They have great noise canceling headphones these days, so go ahead and put those on and let everyone else do their thing?

I don't understand how that will create silence, not just "different noise".

Ear plugs then? (Bose noise reducing headphones actually do a good job at drowning out office noise, even with no other audio playing)

The point is - its just as easy to block noise, so take the responsibility on your side rather than asking others to change for you.
