Here’s why people hate meetings.
- Boss tells you the meeting is urgent, then is always the last to show up
- Difficult to conceal the fact that you really have to take a nap
- “Let’s vote on whether to take a vote”
- Tray of squishy pastry things filled with weird flavored goop
- Agenda? What agenda?
- Usual signal for the end of the meeting is arrival of cleaning staff
- During your presentation, everyone’s watching cat videos on their phones
- Person next to you conducting personal hygiene keeps flicking stuff your way
- Discussion is so far off topic, no one remembers the original point
- Most important thing you get to do is answer the role call
- When there’s a motion to repeal the amendment to the previous motion to disallow, no one knows what they’re voting for
- Woman whose name you can’t remember keeps getting your name wrong
- Two words: long winded
- Guy on the speaker phone sounds like he’s in a coal mine
- Group rushes through a bad proposal so they can beat the traffic to the cottage
- After four hours, place smells like a locker room
And the top reason why people hate meetings is:
- Scheduling yet another meeting to finish everything off
