I totally agree, though I do feel like I've become reliant on looking for some sort of distraction and my go to is my phone/social media. I can see how this would look to my coworkers if they're all heads down, I assume it looks like I'm not doing work? I think maybe I just need to find a different type of distraction, which will definitely be easier in the summer when I can take a walk around the building etc.

Depends on the culture of the place you work I suppose. Certainly where I am you’ll see people on all sorts when they’re thinking things through or taking a break. At the end of the day the way I look at it is everyone is a professional so I’ll treat them as such and not police what they’re doing.

That's very true and a very good point, perhaps I'm more cautious because I'm still a new employee.
