Heh, the bit at the end about interruptions. For my work life, I have had to

people find it rude. So I have to try to figure out how to gauge conversational rhythms. It’s def something they don’t warn you about the goysche world when you’re in day school. :P

This is really cool, and it just confirms that I essentially code switch. In Jewish spaces I have a much more pronounced Jewish accent, but among the goyim much of it (not all) disappears into more standard American English
