workaday Thursday
Oct. 6th, 2022 06:03 amIt's that time of year again! That time when the company executives meet up off-site to do whatever it is executives do in the wild. (Actually, they're at a hotel, so not *that* wild.)
I only found out because a meeting I was supposed to be in got cancelled, and the note on it was "company-wide meetings conflict with this time." So I checked around on their (public! it's not like I was snooping!) calendar to see what they were talking about.
My reactions were as follows:
1) It's not company-wide, because fewer than 20 people are invited, but that's an interesting example of how employees become invisible when they're not considered important.
2) Probably you shouldn't put the menu options in the invite that's viewable to all the people who aren't invited.
