"Code-Switching" is something almost everybody does. The more power you have the less you have to do it. If you change how you interact with people at work or school so that it's different from how you interact with friends in a locker room, a bar, a living room playing video games, and so on, you have done code-switching.
If you have interacted with a minority in an environment that you were in the majority and they were not, they probably had to code-switch to please you.
