What is it about thursdays that it's become "all the meetings" day?

I have 12 meetings in my calendar today.

The whole idea of the #StateOfTheUnion speech is outdated in my opinion. I realize that there's a requirement in the Constitution that the #POTUS let #Congress know how things are going, but that clause was written before the Internet. Instead of wasting everybody's time with this outdated shit show, how about a blog post or an email?

It turned out to be a small biscuit and a cup of orange juice. Here's hoping that I can find some breakfast here in Paris while I hang around waiting for my connecting flight.

So, leg 1 of the climate-destroying journey to Seoul is under way. Edinburgh to Paris CdG, here we go!

Edinburgh Airport isn't a hopping recreational destination at 4 am on a Saturday. Also, it smelled remarkably strongly of wee.

Here's hoping that Air France serve a decent in-flight breakfast…

Is there anyone else whose boss doesn't know how to schedule #zoom calls, so you end up with #meeting invites with 3 or 4 different #zoomroom links and then the team spends the whole meeting jumping between empty rooms until we all just happen into the same room at the same time? #remotework #wfh #musicalchairs #couldhavebeenanemail #tgif
Thanks to Microsoft Viva I can see that in the past 20 working days I've only been in 65 meetings. Which is down from my 105 meetings in the month of January. So....winning, I guess? #couldhavebeenanemail
