Like A1 said, headphones are what get me through the day. Also, communicating with my team and letting them know that I can't really handle distractions throughout the day, and asking them to email me if they need something, rather than constantly interrupting me. It may come across as rude to some, but it's better than losing your job because you can't focus on anything.
I actually had trouble at my last agency for exactly those requests. I anticipate filing accommodations eventually, but as expected as soon as I did, the downhill ride got steeper.
so much noise. My metrics were better when I was fully WFH; this hybrid shift is draining me of both energy and productivity.
Headphones help me. I also have workplace accommodations for remote work, which is a common accommodation for ADHD. Check out askjan.org, which is an advocacy organization who helps accommodations seekers with accommodations.
Thank you! I think I will end up filling accommodations. Probably better sooner than later.
Headphones help, until they don’t. I’m a wandering people watcher when I’m taking thinking breaks.
In a coffee shop? Perfect micro breaks. In the office? A habit of a gamble of making eye contact with the wrong person/thing.
Accommodations?
I was hoping to avoid since last time I filed accommodations, the way people worked with me changed completed. It’s like they felt like no one could talk to me anymore without HR, and as someone who NEEDS open and transparent communication, it was a shock.
I will likely be filling, with the knowledge that I’ll be on an island. Fine because I don’t want to be here long anyway.
