6 hr meeting.....I agree for the most part. There are exceptions. I have a 6 hour meeting every Tuesday that is the Pitts (see what I did there). The leader expects us to multitask because of length and frequency of the meeting.
The other exception is if you know before hand of an important call coming. Inform the people beforehand that you may need to step out if you receive the call. No need to get into specifics but explain why it would be important (waiting for a call from my doctors, wife is pregnant, etc) If you do receive it during the meeting try to be breif so you can get back to the meeting.
Should have every single person you know call you at least once...
If there’s execs and other suit types in there you must hear every buzz word, phrase, quote ever created multiple times.
Is it the Tuesday meeting, because it’s Tuesday ( John Cleese reference)
