I've just been in a meeting for three hours
about 15 minutes of it was directly relevant to me and the work I do.

Were there free sandwiches?
That's how I judge meetings, that and how many actions I get.

No, there's never free sandwiches or free anything at this meeting
you're allowed to eat your lunch though.

The best meetings are the ones spent eating sandwiches
Figuring how to murder everyone in the room with implements found around the meeting room. That's creativity in the workplace.

I excuse myself from that sort of thing these days.
Waste of a day.

You can't.
If you can go, you have to go. It's actually three different meetings that all run together, but even so, it's (mostly) such a fucking waste of my time.

I leave when my bit's done citing the fact I have work to do.
Whether it's true or not. Being a bit older and long in the tooth helps.

That's true,
I tend to bring it up with the chair before the meeting, say oh can you move my actions to the start of the meeting so I can pop out for some *insert standard bullshit* otherwise I'll have to cancel.

There are 378 tiles that make up the boardroom ceiling here.
That's how dull my last meeting was.
