Why Meetings Suck: A Philosophical Exploration
Meetings: the never-ending cycle of pointless discussion, soul-crushing tedium, and occasionally, actual progress. Welcome to the Sisyphean pit of despair that is the modern meeting.
Theories of Meeting-Induced Despair
1. The Meeting Singularity: where the event horizon of productive thought is warped by an infinite loop of pointless updates and tangential discussions.
2. The Butterfly Effect of Meetings: where a single missed deadline can cause a chain reaction of cascading failures, like a domino effect of disappointment.
- Meetings are the bane of productivity.
- Meetings are the antithesis of focus.
- Meetings are the root of all unhappiness.
Or, as the great philosopher, Dennis the Meeting King, once said: "Meetings are the only time when everyone is simultaneously bored, annoyed, and slightly entertained."
