The technical trades are noted for attracting people of both genders who are comfortable with---and
in some cases in need of---a working environment that insulates them from the general public. Many
are introverts, or just plain shy. But when "left alone" they thrive, outputing a prodigious amount
of high quality work without supervision. A common refrain among such employees is "Leave me alone
and let me do my work and don't bother me with office politics." Enlightened management in all
types of businesses benefit from coddling such employees. The office here, situated in an area
not known for welcoming outsiders, has been converted into a haven for those who work best
when left alone. Headquarters values the work that takes place within these walls.
