Oh
Feeling subversive I go

“I invited some operations people over because they’re key people and let’s let them make decisions that make no difference to us but impact them the most”

*operations guys walk into meeting playing on their phones, never look up once*

*the brighter one walks in with a blank notepad, maybe commits one word to writing*

two months later

*operations complaining that new process doesn’t make sense, nobody listens, typical us-vs-them poo poo*

I'm in the middle of a team meeting right now. And, although I have the Google doc opened so I can "work" on it, I am spending most of my time here...

well heck, I'm not about to tell anybody

just, uh, please disregard the NES emulator I've been quietly playing SMB3 in on my phone

if anyone else asks, just say I was, like, tele...conferencing? That's a thing, right?

THE GREAT MANBABY SUCCESSOR

Years ago I was in a guard infantry unit about to go to Thailand for an annual training op. We (a few companies) got a medical briefing from one of our top docs (a major iirc). When he connected to the projector and booted his computer up, it loaded about 10 chat extensions from various lifestyle websites like Adult Friend Finder, Gay Friend Finder, Kink.com etc.

You could have heard a pin drop in the room and no one ever spoke of it again.

Hey guys, I know today is the deadline for the project and we're all really busy and cutting it close, but that's no reason we should skip on our monthly 2 hour strategy meeting!

I skipped an Agile kickoff meeting on Friday because my lunch beers meeting with a cute girl went long. Then when I got back to the office I said I was sick and got my stuff and went to her apartment. Best meeting decision I've made in a long time.

Gentle reminder to send meeting minutes by EOD today.

Which reminds me, there's this guy who is very insistent that people call him Dr. He won't say anything but if you just call him Joe, he sulks a bit.

I found him on LinkedIn and he has a PhD from a nowhere school in something like "political communication". Arts doctorates should have a more distinct title so we know to disregard them safely outside of that one required course in college.
