ngl if i had a private office i'd work a lot more in the office

on topic: guy who, 20mins in, is audibly surprised that i'm attending this weekly, regular meeting for a project he assigned me lead to months ago and i've never missed a meeting for and also i've been here the whole meeting time and he's made at least two other comments in this meeting that mentioned everyone except for me 🤗 it's my manager!
