You're three hours deep into solving a gnarly algorithm, finally understanding the recursive call stack, variables are perfectly named, the solution is crystallizing in your mind—and then Steve from accounting walks over with "You got a minute?"
Spoiler alert: It's never a minute. It's a 20-minute tangent about his printer driver, and now you're staring at your code like it's written in ancient Sumerian. The mental stack you so carefully built? Gone. Obliterated. You'll spend the next hour trying to remember what that variable tempVal2 was supposed to represent.
Fun fact: Studies show it takes an average of 23 minutes to fully regain focus after an interruption. So no, Steve, I don't have a minute. I have negative 23 minutes now.
