I stop feeling charitable when I start missing deadlines and can't get any work done because of constant interruptions.
Is there a more clear way that I can signal I need fewer interruptions than a closed door and headphones? Just a couple hours each day without being interrupted would be great.
- kinkrtyavimoodh 9y agoI do sympathize with the need for some alone-time, and if you are using the 'headphone' method for just a few hours, I think it's pretty good. Just that there are often people who have their headphones on practically the whole time, and then expect to never be interrupted
- Double_a_92 9y agoWhat do you work that you as a single person have deadlines? Usually in SW development those are as a team. So it doesn't matter if you help your teammates?
