In a very multi-cultural office.
The last couple of years had a lot of people talking away on the phone.
This time around, absolute silence for the whole two minutes, which considering the large size of the open plan office with hundreds of people, was pretty amazing.
A South African chap behind me (ex military) stood up which was rather moving.Comment

Everyone stopped doing what they were doing and respected the 2 minutes silence.
