Well i'm extroverted around people. I get a huge burst of energy. I get too excited and can't focus. I just want to keep talking to people and moving around. When it's time to dig into a rats nest of JS code I need serenity and quiet. The reason I don't really buy the whole introvert/extrovert thing is that its way too broad of a distinction and presents this binary of personalities when it's really more of a continuum. I think you just made my point.

Most of the research on the introversion / extraversion workplace effects very strongly focuses on the spectrum aspect, and decidedly eschews the binarism that has held us back from correctly accommodating human beings at work.
