I wish. Unfortunately, I work for the government, who seems to thrive on meetings and work under the impression that unless you're in meetings you have no job or any reason for being at work. So we literally have meetings to discuss setting up meetings to arrange other meetings. Waste of time!!! And members see it, so folks do the bare minimum to get through these meetings, but the chairs of the meetings are 'important' because they are chairing a committee. When we streamlines our committee structure, a number of folks came to me personally and complained because their committee or team was disbanded or absorbed into another one. The new streamlined structure lasted all of 1 month before politics took over once more and everyone has their own meeting or team or committee, which each requires 10-15 members. My thought? Stop the insanity!!!
