Meaningful work, creative work, thoughtful work, important work-this type of effort takes stretches of uninterrupted time to get into the zone. But in the modern office such long stretches just can't be found. Instead, it's just one interruption after another.
The book "Remote: Office Not Required" by Jason Fried discusses how meaningful and creative work requires significant amounts of uninterrupted time for individuals to reach a state of focus and productivity. Unfortunately, in contemporary office environments, this uninterrupted time is increasingly rare, as workers are frequently interrupted by distractions and demands from colleagues.
Fried argues that the modern office setup often hampers the ability to engage in deep, thoughtful work. This continuous cycle of interruptions can severely affect the quality of work, leaving employees feeling overwhelmed and less effective in their roles.
