Update: thanks everyone for the suggestions, I'm going to use quite a few of these. I also talked with my boss today and working on some set quiet time blocks for really high concentration items. Appreciate you all!
As the title said I recently switched to a company with an open office concept. I previously worked in cubicles several years ago and didn't have issues but the caveat is I was diagnosed with adhd a year ago and now every sound or interruption adds so much overstimulation and stress. Yes, I'm HR so I know I technically could request accommodations but I just have a hard time doing that being HR. We do have conference rooms but I kinda feel judged by my manager when I go in one like "what are you doing" idk what I'm looking for, I guess tips on how to deal for those that have experienced this same thing? Or just to whine.
Thanks for listening.
