I don’t know if it’s like different learning styles or what but some people just need to have a whole ass call. I’m like, I’ll just write you a nice message you can refer back to. Nope.
“we need an update call”
Translation: I know you’re not going to get this done on time. I’d like to pre-schedule some time to berate you for it.
Or, “I’ve already asked 6 times and you never even looked at the email.”
90% of my meetings are Teams / WebEx. I just get other computer work done on the other screen while I listen to the meeting because there’s only 5-10 minutes of the 1 hour meeting that pertains to me.
Sort emails. Respond to emails. Get CAD modeling done. Place orders for stuff.
Love getting some down time to get stuff done.
Meeting all day would be fine, if that were the entire job. Like, if I didn’t have actual work that was expected to get done, too.
No I don’t think I could do it. I fucking hate listening to people.
I hate talking, we would be good buddies
Let’s make a job where someone pays us to sit in a meeting and not talk to each other
“Hey can we get the team together for a few minutes?”
Who the fuck do you think you are, you little shit? NO!
Always turns into one person monopolizing the conversation and it goes for at least an hour
