"Let's meet tomorrow morning to discuss"
Good freaking god...

:banghead:

What's to discuss? Here are the recommendations, do you know the process?
No.
Can you add anything to the process?
No.
Why do you see a need to meet if there is nothing to talk about?

:banghead:

1. Because I feel lost when I am not in a meeting.
:shrug:


And I need to justify my paycheck.

7. I truly think this must be it.
The "feeling lost" part in particular.

6. I was spoiled by my former manager before he left:
"Do we need to meet about this?"

No, not really.

"OK, let me know how it turns out."

14. Could be worse
"Plan" is a four-letter word where I work.

13. From the movie Office Space.
Stupid meetings, horrible bosses, employees plots revenge/money maker, etc.

4. Because they are in charge of... "meetings".
Probably says that somewhere in their job description.

Arranges meetings.

Nothing is about "content" anymore.

10. I had a 2 hour meeting yesterday with my boss
And then 3 1/2 hours of meetings today. I am so sick of speaking and listening that I don't give a shit about anything or anyone. I pray that tomorrow I will have a day to myself where I can actually get some work done.
