Definitely true for me. If I have something looming, I am completely distracted and struggle to start anything knowing it will just be interrupted. Then you have those situations where you avoid starting anything 15 minutes out from a client arriving, then they run late and you've thrown away 30+ minutes.

Not related to productivity as such, but...

In a previous life I was a manager in the construction industry.

And, generally speaking, before every meeting there was another meeting that only a few people were invited to.

I'm guessing this wasn't an industry specific thing?

Not sure how much it correlates with IT. I'm sure it does on higher levels. But on lower/mid levels, lot of meetings are just regular work stuff. Inter/intra team communication, talks with clients, etc.

Presumably people at work don't view NSFW sites, because that would not be safe.

As a security guy who sees alerts thrown when people visit NSFW sites at work, I can assure you that they absolutely do.
