    Context switching, if it ends up being an irrelevant phone call even if it’s short, it can throw off your flow. It’s embarrassing because they were tricked into letting through a bad call. Are you like an alien trying to understand humanity or something?

      I wouldn’t call it tricking, more like deceiving with a clear intent to be a nuisance to everyone involved. Presumably even the scientist down the line was deceived into talking to them before inevitably hanging up. Nothing embarrassing about that. But yeah I don’t disagree with the flow thing, that sucks but again it’s no ones fault but the callers.

      You say that as a joke (?) but this honestly is my lemmy-experience so far in a nutshell lol.
