Survive your morning meetings with these expert tips.
- Arrive at the office an hour early. This will ensure that you have time to rehearse your apathetic responses to your boss's ideas.
- Use your "independent contractor" status as a shield, not a sword.
- Develop an intense interest in the color beige. This will help you tune out the fluorescent lighting and bland decor.
- Never, ever, EVER use the phrase "synergy" unironically.
- When in a meeting, always, always, ALWAYS refer to your notes. Unless you have no notes, in which case, just pretend you're a visionary.
