Have you ever been to an office meeting that turned out to be a CEO circlejerk that dragged on for hours?

But a friend of mine went to the grandaddy of them all, something about state politics, some ambitious asshole making a power play and filibustering for an entire day, he had come prepared specifically to wear everyone down, I think he was trying to approve a new set of rules and conditions that benefitted his position, something along those lines.

CEO of our company does one every single Friday at lunch over zoom. Luckily I have never attended. But my boss does has to eat his lunch while listening to CEO talk about all the ways they doing great when we aren't.

I've had a CEO like that. I call it the sunshine and smoke up your ass meeting.

"Oh, looks like nobody's doing anything during their lunch break, so I'm sure it'll be fine to schedule a meeting during it."

If they're paying for lunch, I'm fine with it. If not, I'm not fine. My lunch is my time to recharge for the rest of the workday.

My manager is salary so they work them like slaves. He works 6.30am to 4.30p every day and even answers emails while vacation.

If somebody did that, I'd disapprove of those rules out of pure spite.
