i allow 7am meetings for european colleagues and 5-6pm meetings for colleagues in south/southeast/east asia only. if you're US tho? gently caress you. i have a couple weekly meetings with a team spread across US, south & southeast asia, and eastern europe at ~8am, but that time is poo poo for basically everyone but the US people.

OldAlias posted:the earliest we have meetings is 10am I’m jealous. I work for a company with an office in Germany and one in the Bay Area. I was told that I’d have 7AM meetings once or twice a month during the interview process. Turns out that all of the stakeholders for my job are in the German office, and my meeting schedule is more like 7AM 3-4 times a week Poopernickel fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Jan 14, 2023 |

a good #lifehack to deal with that is to have a water bottle handy and take a long sip from it every time you feel your face start to twist into a “wtf” or laugh

Cat Face Joe posted:few things better than the "in a meeting" teams status but not actually being in a meeting team just joins a standing call all day outside of meetings so we all show as 'in a call/meeting' outside of actual meetings, no one cares if you're not on voice/video, very nice reduces drive by messages from people outside your team expecting you to respond right away at my last job I had a powershell script that toggled scroll lock on and off every five minutes to keep teams from tattling on me by setting me to away

I'm thankful I don't work somewhere where your Teams status has to stay green when you're not in a meeting. That seems hella abusive.
