I used to almost exclusively listen to any kind of audio through headphones. I had a microphone near my desk configured so that it would pass through the vibration of footsteps directly to my headphones. I was rarely startled, no matter what sordid activity I was undertaking.
If you’re pounding one out that won’t really save you. He probably games with headphones and just doesn’t want to get jump scares by mom.
I always had a desk and a bed and I made a point to never have my back towards the door when I was at my desk for the above reason.

I swear the footsteps trigger a Pavlov response in me at this point. I can even tell who it is by the footsteps
As in you instantly lose an erection, because you’ve been conditioned to associate footfalls with a ruined orgasm?
I can only get off if I hear approaching footsteps
I used to be able to do that, too! These days, I live with two people: an adult wife and a toddler. Their gaits are pretty easily distinguishable.
Wow was that hard to setup? Any special equipment needed?
Honestly, that was some 25-30 years ago. It was pretty simple to setup back then, but it might not be the same now, especially in Windows.
Same for me at work. But I use a mirror from Aliexpress.
