@TruthSandwich@toad.social @fatsam I've always had that problem to some degree and one reason I always worked alone with the door shut.

Working in a restaurant, my brain has picked up skills I never imagined I could do. Orders come on, entrees shouted, along with other tasks, and today it feels like they go onto a stack. Years ago, I'd have been lost after three tasks. Now I can stack a pile of them and do them in sequence and optimize to do several in parallel, all the while synchronizing with others who have steaks on the broiler, lobster heating in the oven, and more. It's crazy in a restaurant and it's kind of fun now that it's not overwhelming. So an old dog can learn new tricks.
