I thought the meeting to talk about planning for designing a new mediapolicy was a waste of time. It could have been finished by the time we were done.
An opportunity to meet new friends and impress people during work time, without actually having to do any work.
The greatest exponents of the meeting never actually do any work, but still manage to progress through the company at an alarming rate. This is achieved through two key strategies:
1: The use of key words within the meeting environment such as "added value", "customer centric", "think outside the box" and "rationalisation".
2: Scheduling their time so that meetings end and bigin 5 minutes apart throughout the day. This gives them time to stride purposely through the office muttering "I musn't be late for this important meeting", thus making themselves appear incredibly valuable to the organisation, without anyone ever understanding exactly what it is they do all day.
"Hey, are you going to that meeting at recess?"
"Hey, hurry up we have that meeting"
and the most obvious use of the word
"Hey are you coming for a meeting at recess?"
The phrase 'meet it' is sometimes shouted in Sunday league football matches by a team's coach or manager. It is shouted when a goal kick or clearance is in the air and going towards a player, the player is then obliged to head or kick the ball anywhere because letting the ball bounce in Sunday league football is almost a death wish.
