Meetings are Bad For You

Two psychologists have found evidence that the number of and the time spent in meetings has a detrimental effect on mood. "...a general relationship between meeting load and the employee's level of fatigue and subjective workload was found", write the authors after conducting a diary study. Perhaps we should be more understanding with our moody bosses?"
it is reported that baning your head against the wall is bad for you.
Is a meeting where the same topic is rehashed over and over. There are a lot of people who think it is necessary to explain things ad nauseum in as many different ways as they can. I wouldn't have so much of a problem with it if there were a way to opt out once you get the point. This is one of the main sources of frustration at many of my meetings.
How pathetic are you that you follow me from topic to topic and waste all your mod points at once modding me down?
Abosolute, purest, horseshit.
You obviously have some axe to grind having been fired for rank incompetance or you just don't have the barest fucking clue what goes on in the working world.
Seriously. How the fuck did you get to be marked insightful, is it because there's no "retard" button?
