Q: A new study out of England says that women are better at this than men at work?

A: Listening to music while they work

 

A new study out of England found women are better at concentrating on work while they listen to music than men.  Men especially struggled listening to rock music while they tried to get stuff done . . . but women were basically unaffected.

The researchers think it’s possible that women have developed better multitasking skills . . . because of their responsibilities juggling their family, home, and work.  That’s made them better at focusing in loud and crazy situations.
