Here at Investments r Us there are plenty of peole that like to have meetings just for the sake of having meetings. We get it, you’re important and we have to show up when you tell us to and then we’re not supposed to call you out for showing up 15 minutes late and not having an agenda. Y ou’re important. Fine, whatever.
I hate having to leave the comfort of my cubicle to go to some stupid meeting room. No only does it require that I get my ass up out of this chair, but it also means that I have to control my eye rolls when someone says something stupid. AND it means that I have to pretend to pay attention. Blech, it sucks.
Meanwhile, if I can stay at my desk and attend via conference call, I can take meaningful notes. Kind of like the notes I took for my last meeting:
Filed under: Investments r Us, annoying, ranting and raving, thankless job
Awesome. I miss your notetaking talents. You should post these on a weekly basis
“you ability to bore people should be a criminal offense, punishable by a life sentence and/or death”
or worse
“listening to her/his own self”
Awesome! Meetings suck.
You need to really teach a class on your note-taking skills.
I’m sure you’d be a HUGE hit.
I know I’d be a willing student.. I just need to be a little more “artsy”.
Most of my drawings tend to be in crayon, and talk about the voices wanting to kill the various folks in the room with me…..
See…the problem is you could have been drafting an escape plan. I give you points for your ability to detail the situation and you always have the option of trying to give the speaker a paper cut across the throat.
I died laughing at your notes. Thank you so much i needed that.
Everybody just look busy.
Do your notes qualify as “mind mapping”?
And in college, we wondered why we had to take courses like Topics in Epistemology and Differential Equations. But see? It was to prepare us for this.
