"take a day to go fishing to ponder a problem" Hell yes. Fishing per se isn't what I'd pick, but the freedom to use even small amounts of real solitude and calm surroundings in order to clarify thoughts - that would improve my work life immensely.

There's really no polite way to tell everyone in an office to shut up and back off, because you need clear mind time to see a problem properly.
