    If you’re pounding one out that won’t really save you. He probably games with headphones and just doesn’t want to get jump scares by mom.

    I always had a desk and a bed and I made a point to never have my back towards the door when I was at my desk for the above reason.

    Sorta. CBM is cubic meters and the entire world uses feet for shipping containers. For Intl logistics CBM and kg are the standard for volume and weight but they get loaded into containers measured in feet.

    You’ll see similar stuff in other industries. Machining a lot of measurements are in mm but tolerances in “mils” or 1/1000 of an inch. Or medical where volume is in mL or drams.

    When it comes to distance though I only really know miles.
