Does anyone else here have difficulties working in an open-plan office where everyone seems to talk across each other? In addition, there is a table about 15 feet from my desk that people use for presentations and meetings.
My solution is to use headphones and listen to music. However, as soon as I have managed to get into that state where I can ignore what is going on around me (usually takes about 10 minutes), someone always seems to come over and ask me a question. Headphones out, back into the 'real' world and back to square one.
Anyone have a technique for dealing with this?
