@GrantMeStrength it’s also bad to assume everyone even can wear noise-cancelling headphones.
(I cannot wear closed headphones, I get hot ears after about half an hour, followed by ear infect. In-ear is also out. My new work headset is open around-ear and surprisingly works, had no problem with the ears after a five-hour onboarding meeting but they of course don’t isolate in either direction.)

@GrantMeStrength I don't think even extroverts want open plan offices and constant COVID exposure alerts.
Office policy is being made by whatever the corporate equivalent of the surveillance state is.

@GrantMeStrength "surveillance market" just sounds like where you go to buy security cameras

@GrantMeStrength As someone with adhd, the switch to open spaces over the last decade has been... difficult.
I never thought I'd miss shitty nightmarish corporate cubicles, but here we are

@GrantMeStrength easier said than done. I just try to get by with what tools I can manage to get my work done, and enjoy my life.
And yes, noise cancelling headphones are one of many essential tools for that.

@GrantMeStrength I'm thinking that it might not have anything to do with introverts vs extroverts, and a lot more with upper management getting their kicks out of torturing every body.
