The last 36 hours has been really weird. Hence the lack of posts for the last two days. One of the stretches of road that I take to work is a four-lane road characterized by an abundance of traffic signals and they seem to add one more each year. It is not too bad during off peak hours, but during rush hour it stinks. I am able to flex my schedule and start early, but the past few months, that has not made much of a difference.
I have a theory. The effectiveness of a meeting is inversely proportional to the number of people attending the meeting.
Most anyone working for any length of time has been to meeting Hades. The worst of the worst seem to be regularly scheduled staff meetings. The more frequent the meetings are scheduled the more tedious that they tend to be.
One of the worst that I experienced was a weekly staff meeting. They were scheduled for Monday mornings at 7:00 am. There were typically only six of us that attended regularly and they started off ok. After a few months, the charm wore off.
