    I was in a meeting yesterday afternoon that I could have summarized in two paragraphs.

    In fact, I did summarize it in 2 paragraphs earlier that day. And sent it to everyone on the invite.

    Imagine my surprise when all 12 people start panicking because they don’t know the answer to something I put in the email. Turns out no one even read it.

    That’s why they like in-person meetings. So they don’t have to read.

      Yeah, that’s the worst of it

      How much time I spent writing eloborated mails, never got an answer, only to here in a meeting, the someone immediately demands answers and estimations from me - which I sent out to all members of this fucking meeting 2 weeks ago
