TIL working from a coffee shop actually killed my productivity after that 45-minute wait for a table last Tuesday

I went to Brew Lab on 3rd Street to escape my home office and the chaos killed my flow so bad I only got one proposal done in 4 hours, has anyone else noticed their best work comes from a dead-quiet room with no distractions?

That 45 minute wait would've killed my whole day too. I just need dead quiet.

Oh absolutely, that kind of wait is a total day-killer for me too. I once waited 50 minutes for coffee at a crowded place and I swear I could feel my mood just sinking by the minute (I ended up walking out). You need that dead quiet to reset, and a long wait just throws everything off balance.
