Ahh but that’s not all.
Call now and we will throw in virtual meetings via phone. Yes that’s right! Instead of wasting company time in person you can now waste it over the phone.
Now I know what you are asking. There isn't any ways to make this sweet deal any better. Well you would be wrong! All callers in the next 5 minutes will receive the buzzword bingo kit. Yes you too can now utilize those meaningless catch phrases that drive people insane all from the comfort of your desk! Never has a deal been so good! ACT NOW!

I'm afraid not.

It’s been around awhile in various forms, and with intranet IMing its fun as heck. All of a sudden you get BINGO! popping up on screen.

Please do NOT use the word meeting near me for a while.

This morning, at the piloting committee meeting, the client asked me to write the planning for the deployment of the version after the version after the current version of the project throughout the whole of 2007. They wanted it for tomorrow.

I think my decision to get the FUCK out of this industry when I can is pretty much settled now. >x.x<

I was in a meeting today where about 30% of the time was stuff relevant to my work, and the rest was relevant to other peoples' work.

Sure, it's nice to know what's going on, but I could have spent that 70% of the meeting time actually DOING my work instead of hearing about other peoples' work.

But alas...

You left off the parts about killing half a workday or more and getting a meal (or at least donuts) paid for by the company.
