This Real Job - Status Update Meetings, WTF

A blog about a job. A real job. Not one of those fancy jobs where people are happy. Not one of those fancy jobs that people like. This is an office job. A generic office job where no one matters and no one cares.

Status Update Meetings, WTF

I am now part of a recurring weekly status update meeting for a project I am working on. The first meeting was to go over what the meetings were and how they were going to function moving forward. The second meeting was a 45 minute recap of the first meeting and then a 5 min update on what actually happened in the week. Then we ended 10 minutes early so everyone could get to their next status update meeting without being late. Just so you all know, there was a serious lack of status updating at this meeting.

This is going to be the biggest waste of time in the world. My brain has already blocked this recurring meeting. I will go in body, never in mind.
