I cannot believe lemmy didn't drag you out in the alley and beat your ass for that comment. Any notion that, gasp, meeting people in person can be useful is anathema 'round here.
Our teams meet at the main office about once a year. I hate flying and being away for a week, but it's still pretty fun. Free drinks and food! And no one will touch the Keystone I leave in the office fridge.
We learn about each other, makes us closer as a team. Plus, we meet the others who wander in and out the office. Sometime people come in just to meet us.
I think they did it quarterly, but I started right before COVID, not sure. But every 3-months is too damned disruptive for too little benefit.
