But in practice in an office it's nearly impossble to "discourage others from dropping by"... especially if you are the go-to person for a specific technology. I do everything I can to discourage others from coming and asking questions - but I still end up with many throughout the day. I've even implemented (and insisted upon) a "zone time" (from 2pm-4pm when I shouldn't be disturbed unless the prod server has gone down or we're in the middle of a release)... but it gets conveniently ignored and all my colleagues begin by asking "just one small question... it won't take very long" - and the wedge begins. and they all get very upset when I tell them "no means no". Do you have any suggestions for more effective ways of remaining distraction-free in an interrupt-driven office? Sounds like a great idea – for the most part.
