SO DEMANDING posted:yeah this call has rotating hosts and a couple manage to actually keep a schedule and keep things in the call moving, the rest are completely loving useless. "ok first on the agenda is this thing...any questions?" *allows call to descend into utter chaos, doesnt speak again until the very end of the call* "ok we'll cover the rest of the items next week" lol if you don't start the call that way then just leave for the rest of the duration

'oh, your calendar said you were free' yeah that don't mean i am at your disposal cocknuts people get extremely angry when i decline invites that are definitely irrelevant to me, like they will find me and be like 'why the hell did u decline this half hour meeting scheduled a month from now that doesnt involve u at all' and its like ??? what?
