Being trained as an Analyst can be a double-edged sword. When I'm out in the wild, I notice a lot of things - people, signs, and general surroundings.

For some reason, when I'm in a meeting (year-end reviews or discussion of merit increase), my spidey senses are dulled and I can miss red flags. Has this happened to you and if so, how do/did you reset your senses?

It's just got to do with circumstance. Out in the wild = relaxed. Talking about your compensation = stressed. Everyone misses more when they're stressed, tired, distracted. It's normal.
