I think I’m the peep type who disagrees with the manager running the meetings. I’m realizing I’m the only person in our meetings who does this in our meeting of 10 people, and I’m also one of the newer people (been here 2 years against everyone else’s 8-10 years).

I can’t tell if everybody else has learned the hard way somehow not to argue, or they don’t give a poo poo, or maybe I’m singularly annoying and arguing for no reason and haven’t realized it yet. It’s downright eerie

I just ignore the update prompt until it gets pushy and forces a restart, ruining my workflow and making me grumpy for the rest of the day
