I will make a point of it. Whenever I can escape the @*$^#% meetings! The meetings will continue until productivity improves!
Geeze. I have never seen an outfit that went to so many meetings. If they ever screw up and put me in charge, I am throwing away every chair in every conference room. Any meeting that cannot take place in the time frame that allows for comfortable standing takes too bloody long. I also think that anyone who wants to ask questions should have to stand on top of a huge monster heater that blows 150 degree air out while they ask, and listen to the answer of, their silly question. Everyone should be issued lawn darts that they can hurl at any moron that asks a question addressed during the content of the meeting. And finally, if refreshments are offered, they should consit of vinegar and salt. If there is another method a victem of meetings conceives of to keep them short, they should be universally adopted, and the nay-sayers should be given ebola and sent to the MBA classes. --- Tim Fournet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Interesting.
