Interesting read. I agree with a lot of it.

I find noise cancelling headphones uncomfortable and claustrophobic. I have really bad tinnitus, so all noise cancelling headphones do for me is amplify that.

I find that coming in early and leaving early does work. Getting in before others and getting a couple of hours work done is effective, then taking a proper hour for lunch off-site helps as well.
