that’s paid time, right?

Aww yeah, it’s TRAINING DAY! Earlier this week, I was asked to participate in a training about “being a meeting facilitator,” which is really 10,000% the pinnacle of our current office culture. Considerations:

1. It’s 90 minutes of paid time on a Friday afternoon. That really would have been enough right there.

2. SURELY I can get enough gems from this training for a humorous blog post.

3. When I say ‘asked,’ I really mean ‘told.’

The execs like to say the company is in a time of transition, which is a nice way of saying ‘we have no idea what we’re doing.’ And it’s not that I think the concept of making meetings more effective isn’t great; it just feels a bit like a rearranging deck chairs plan, when what would really be helpful is BRINGING BACK THE FREE HALF AND HALF in the break rom. But that’s just me!
