I've gotten a lot better about it over the years, but this is good advice for anyone still in the situation.

Yeah I think it's something a lot of us do.

Masking is definitely a skill that can be developed. I don't even think of it as a negative thing really, it's just knowing your audience and trying to relate on a similar level.
