That citrus feeling

Recently I've been blocking time out of my calendar just so I can actually do some work and not sit in meetings all day long. It's a bit sad really.

But don't you just hate it when you get invited to a meeting and 10 minutes into it you think "What am I doing here?" because you have nothing of value to add to the conversation. So you then spend the remaining hour sitting there feeling like a complete lemon.

Need to remember to be a lot less promiscuous when accepting meeting requests from now on.

For the record, I prefer to be a lemon than take the more popular option of rambling on in areas that I have no clue about, or simply repeating what has been said in a tone that suggests that it hasn't already been said, just for the sake of being heard!

Feeling a lot better about that citrus moment after my boss came over and told me he didn't know what the point was to those meetings either. He wisdom shone through though as he chose not to attend. That's why he is the boss!
