Meeting Minutes: Where Time Goes to Die

Bad Decisions / Bean Counting Protocol

Minutes of the meeting where we spent 3 hours discussing the importance of bean counting. Because, you know, it's really not that important.

Attendees:

John, Jane, Bob, Bob's cousin Steve, and the intern who's just here for the free coffee.

Agenda:

1. What's the best way to count beans?

2. How do we make sure we count all the beans?

3. Do we have enough coffee for everyone?

Decisions:

Decision 1: Counting Beans

John: We should count them in alphabetical order.

Jane: But what if there's a bean that's not a letter?

John: Well, that's just a bean-tastic question.

Decision 2: Ensuring all Beans are Counted

Bob: We should make a spreadsheet.

Steve: But what if the spreadsheet gets eaten by a bean-loving intern?

Bob: Good point, Steve. We should also have a backup plan.

Decision 3: Coffee Supply

Steve: Can we have extra coffee for everyone?

Bob: Only if we can afford it.

John: I'll just make some more coffee.

Next Steps:

We'll reconvene in an hour to discuss the importance of bean counting. Don't forget to bring your favorite snack!
