I once had a job where I had to field a lot of phone calls and it messed with my head. If the phone rang at home I'd pick it up and say the name of the company. Like a reflex, I'd think I was answering a phone at work. People would think they'd called a wrong number, and friends would think I was joking. I wasn't joking, it was an awful habit to pick up.

Oh wow, that’s such a relatable feeling! It’s wild how work sneaks into every part of life sometimes.
Heheh this made me laugh because the other day I dreamed about the hold music for one of the vendors we frequently use. It was just stuck in my head and I couldn't get it out. And I have definitely had people like friends and family say "why are you talking like that" I always laugh.

Haha, I love that! Hold music really does get stuck in your brain in the weirdest ways.
It’s both funny and a little sad, being so invested in your job that even your subconscious thinks you’re still working. It reminds me of a video I saw where a guy was sleep-talking and apologizing to a customer in his sleep lol.
Chief
Haha, that’s hilarious. Sleep-apologizing to customers takes dedication to a whole new level!
