How can you concentrate on work when around is very noisy?

In my company, the sales have a meeting every 11 a.m.. And they say out loud. They slap loudly. And it makes me very annoyed so I wear my earphone. It makes me feel better. Did you experience that? Talk about it.

Hi, lbbaby. No. I have never had this happen to me before on any job that I have ever worked at. Do you mean that they slapped you on yout back as the sales meeting was announced?? If they did, that would have annoyed and startle me.

Yes I too have experienced that. I cant concentrate or focus my job when people around me are too noisy. My brain cells can't work well with very noisy surroundings. even if someone knocks at my door and I am focused into soething it irritates me

I have always experienced the same at the office. During the end time of 1st shift and start time of 2nd shift because, their work schedule is shifting and my schedule is flexible between 8am-11am. Its like I'm in the wet public market and they are vendors offering their goods for you to buy.lol
