A (nice) coworker once asked me if I had a system for managing tasks.

I thought they were asking to learn, so I enthusiastically told them about the ~30 different systems I use; the inbox of all incoming tasks, a flowchart for task allocation, urgency VS importance whiteboards, etc, etc. I mentioned each of the books and methodologies those systems came from. (I highly recommend this 5min vid and listening to Order from Chaos (written by and for people with ADHD))

"Oh... cool" was their response, and in that moment I realized they were actually asking because they thought I didn't have any system at all...

I just checked out the book and bought it, thanks!
