Well, I have board mailings this week and meetings next. Even with directing traffic, I'm up.
Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be lawyers. As I used to tell my father-in-law and uncle when they'd give me shit about my first year associate's salary being more than they made: they don't give it to me for free ese. Fuck'in A. -

The Throbber is morally and philosophically opposed to 'meetings'.
Get down in the trenches and talk to the workers. Get out in the field and talk to the customers. Get out from behind the computer screen where the biggest job requirement is building a nifty powerpoint and updating the weekly sales totals.
Meetings are fuckery.

Middle management for some reason forgets all of this and gets into the weeds of upper management’s disjointed view of reality to fuck up things up even more. It always amazes me watching management create work for themselves that just impedes others.PurpleThrobber said:

Back in the day I outlawed meetings, at least as far as my participation.
Send me a two paragraph summary.
Worked fine. -
Sales meetings in general are almost fucking pointless for anyone who isn't in their 1st day of sales. For most companies, it is the same regurgitated bullshit repeated ad nauseum and just sucks up 30 mins to an hour that could be used to be doing something productive like poasting on the Hardcore Husky Finance Bored.

At a former job we used to have some yearly goal of some sort. It was a different goal every year and management would hound us to meet or beat it. It caused a lot of additional work for very little return. Then in one meeting they had a slide that had more info than they probably meant to provide. Turns out the yearly goal was tied to executive bonuses. So I’d bust my ass so some guy could get his bonus and then, in turn, I’d get a raise that often times didn’t even meet COLA. After that, I was aware of their goal, and would make an honest effort, but I never worked long hours for it.jecornel said:Middle management for some reason forgets all of this and gets into the weeds of upper management’s disjointed view of reality to fuck up things up even more.
