i got in an argument with someone the other day over whether clicking the x to close a program does anything different from file>exit, because some of our official documentation still says the former will break our software and I said it 1. wasn't true and 2. signals to customers that our software is poo poo I also once heard my direct supervisor very carefully explain to a co-worker that Windows runs on top of DOS which is why some of our utilities have to be run from the command line

I was on a cc that ticked all the boxes today -1 other party showed up 15 min late, and only after being e-mailed to ask where they were -another party never showed at all -both sides tried to set the meeting agenda themselves to two very different goals -45 minutes to say 4 min worth of actual meaningful words -I was completely unneeded and literally did not speak after being introduces -was in a conference room with a higher up so could not spend entire call on phone -beats doing real work I guess

I was on a cc the other day that was scheduled for an hour. at the end of the hour the host said "well we're not done discussing x so we will pick it up in our next meeting." I was scared and confused for the rest of the day of The Meeting That Ended On Time
