inMy local game store used to feel like a club, now it's a showroom
Walk into my local spot now and they hit you with a sales pitch before you can even look at a game box. They cleared out the old play tables to stack up the latest unopened releases no one gets to try. Feels like browsing a fancy museum where everything has a price tag. When did game nights turn into window shopping?

inMy go-to strategy for handling interruptions in meetings backfired yesterday
Cost savings points matter, but one interrupted moment in a meeting might not be worth deep frustration. In many teams, people step on each other's words without meaning to. Your coworker could have been overly eager, not rude. I've seen similar cases where a quick chat after the meeting solved more than a confrontation during it. Sometimes letting go of small slights keeps the work place calm. If it keeps happening, then it's a pattern to address, but for a single instance, maybe just note it and move on.
