Knights among toner cartridges
(infosec.pub)
(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse. -William Strunk Jr. (The Elements of Style)
Until a dart hits me by mistake when I'm trying to focus on something. Not to mention the distractions.
You get used to it. I've gotten to that point that a dart to the back of the head, or hitting my monitor doesn't even make me flinch, and I don't lose my train of though. I'll wrap up what I was working on, then fire back.
Why should I have to get used to it? It's a job, not a fucking arcade.
