The Pointlessness of Meetings

Or, Why We're Here and Why We're Not

Meetings. The bane of productivity, the scourge of creativity, the plague of pointless discussions. We've all been there, done that.

Or have we?

Meetings: The Never-Ending Cycle of Pointlessness

Why We're Here

We're here because someone, somewhere, decided it was a good idea to gather us all together in one place, to discuss the same old thing, ad infinitum.

But why?

• Because someone has to pay for the coffee machine.
• Because someone needs to justify their existence.
• Because we can't possibly imagine anything more exciting to do.

Why We're Not

We're not here because we have better things to do. We're not here because we're allergic to pointless meetings.

Or maybe we're just not here because our cat has an appointment with a laser pointer.
