meetings-per-week? Meaningless statistic! What's important here? Being productive? Having respect for your time? Being part of a community? Meetings should be very few if they serve no purpose, but... The more helpful they are to everyone attending - the more I like them. If you don't care about your co-workers, then don't go to meetings unless there's something in it for you. But I have no patience for people who think that their time is too important to share with their co-workers. Don't like the meeting? Then fix it. Change it.
