Long Meetings

Every meeting she calls starts off with, "I promise this meeting will last no more than X minutes" and she fails every single time to meet the stated goal. 30 minutes turns into an hour and 15. Five minutes turns into 45 minutes. Every meeting turns into an exercise in paying just enough attention to stay awake.

Two consecutive Fridays, she called a company meeting after 5:30 pm. ON A FRIDAY. The second time this happened, I immediately said that I had to leave at 6:30 (to avoid a long meeting). The response was "This won't take more than 10 monutes."

I left the meeting at 6:40 pm.
