John Doe's Committee Reactions

Minutes of the Most Underwhelming Meeting

Attendees:

• John Doe
• Jane Doe
• Bob Johnson

Subcommittee: The Redundant Discussion Committee

Chairman John Doe opened the meeting with a 10-minute discussion on the merits of the meeting itself. This was followed by a 20-minute discussion on the same topic, which somehow lasted 45 minutes. The subcommittee concluded with an 8-hour debate on the importance of not taking notes.

Next meeting: Same meeting, different day.

Important Decisions:

• We should have more meetings like this.
• We should not take notes.

Next steps:

• Form a new committee to study the effects of meetings on productivity.
• Write a memo to the company about it.

Adjournment:

John Doe adjourned the meeting at 3:00 PM sharp. Everyone left, only to realize that the meeting would continue in 2 hours, because that's just how it goes sometimes.
