I Want To Tell You What I'M Doing Today

I’m doing an experiment to see how much time extroverts waste talking about trivial things.

I’m counting every time a conversation happens about something non-work-related, that I can hear through noise-cancelling headphones and music (David Bowie, today.)

We’ve been here for 2 hours and 45 minutes. So far, there’s a total of 55 minutes wasted on babbling.

UPDATE:
The total for the whole workday was 111 minutes, or 1 hour and 51 minutes.

So, almost two hours the talkative people were not doing any work themselves, and also preventing anybody else from getting any work done by being noisy.

Ugh. I'm so glad I'm introverted.

I never had a job that could allow for that kind of trivial talk. Factory production never slows down long enough.

Perhaps you should apply for a grant for further study. Should be worth a few million. If you need to add some staff count me in.

Not all extroverts talk about trivial things. Just sayin'.

Yikes, so exhausting, especially to empaths.
