At meetings that I think are a waste of time, I retaliate by wasting even more time over meeting agenda minutiae, or by asking to go over minutes of old meetings.

@fesshole As a contractor I would say "do you really want to pay me £xx/hr to sit in this meeting?" and usually got the answer "no".

One of my council colleagues once dealt with a meeting that shouldn't have been called by saying "there's nothing on this agenda that couldn't have been held over until next time, the meeting should have been cancelled" and walking out, thus rendering the meeting inquorate, so we all had to go home.

@fesshole I reckon Zoom, Teams, etc, should have a meter in the corner of the screen clocking up the cost of the meeting in real time, based on the charge-out rate for each of the participants.

@TimWardCam @fesshole I did a spreadsheet for that in my last job. It wasn’t well received.

@atlovato @TimWardCam @fesshole I was made redundant a few months later. Can’t help but think it was related.

@chris @TimWardCam @fesshole - That was a cheap shot on them to give you that type of resentment for the truth. You are probably in a better job.

Although Zoom doesn't provide that, I bet one could make a dynamic background for themselves that shows the increasing cost as the seconds pass.

@fesshole if you want the meeting to get really fkn funny, go in early and replace the whiteboard markers with similar looking permanent markers. Chief Executive Dipshit doesn’t know his ass from his elbow, much less the difference in marker tech. The real joy comes when he tries to wipe away his bullshit. Try not to laugh.
