There is another problem here. Most executives are extroverts, so for them being in the environment like that feels right and good. Does not really help with understanding in my experience.
What makes perfect sense for their kind of works does not make as much sense for my kind of work.
I found myself having conversations with family members where I never mentioned words that would give away what I was talking about.
What drive me even crazier is co workers that took an almost insane interest in what I was eating for lunch.
Yeah, it's a fucking big mac... have you never seen one before?
I was mostly surrounded by customer phone support people so I doubt I was distracting them.
I also have nervous kidneys. Hmm.
