What a man does at work, and how women decode it

Early one Monday morning, Carol noticed a male co-worker exhibiting odd behavior - not really working, not really typing, sort of resting. Maybe communicating with a distant star? 

At that moment the team was supposed to be updating their sales progress in Salesforce, the company's customer relationship management (CRM) software.

She used an office messaging app and alerted a teammate to share the head-shaking experience.

He looked something like the cupped chin picture, except imagine a man, not even a hint of a smile.

Here's the private, text conversation.

8:54 AM

Carol: Chin in one hand, the other hand resting on his keyboard or typing with his little finger -- what is he doing???

8:54 AM

Samantha:  HAHAHAHA

i have no idea...................not salesforce

8:55 AM

Carol: I'm going to get a look at his screen - watch this misdirect . . . 

He's STARING at salesforce -- it's communicating with him telepathetically (sic)

9:04 AM

Samantha: omg

no way

it cant 

(pause)

that would mean that his mind works faster than it does
