Do these extroverts have a job that requires any level of focus? I'm also pretty much an extrovert but if I need to get any work done, being in the office is actually counterproductive for me and for people who I interact with.

Yeah, me too. It's much harder for me to focus at the office, which is annoying as mentally it's great for me to get out of the house and see people who aren't my family (who are great, I just do better when i see and interact with more people).

The not so secret secret is that office jobs are 50% work and 50% politics. And that's in a good company. In a dysfunctional company, it's more like 80% politics.

They have work to do, but then buckling down and focuses is probably worse than what they're doing. Unfortunately.
