I just don't go the meetings, if they actually need me my boss send me a DM asking me to enter, otherwise she just tell me what I need to know. Only when she can't participate on the meetings she ask me to enter and told her if they talked about something relevant for us.

At some point in the future, someone will understand what I mean by "I haven't had enough time between meeting to read the necessary materials" because I can't learn shit from verbal discussion.
If that ever actually happens, i firmly believe I will get more time to actually do work too.
Having worked in nonprogrammer roles... I think the only people that like meetings are upper management - across departments.
That's okay, we can reschedule the 1 of the 60 TFCV meetings about theupcoming 5 TPS meetings, that so we can be prepared for the 2 SMR meetings in 3 and 4 months, which is needed for the the BRM meeting in 6 months. Then we'll see if anything is decided at the BRM meeting. If not we'll repeat the meeting schedule for the foreseeable future.
Fuck you and your idea of productivity. Just because your job is reporting on the status of other people’s hard work doesn’t mean that’s how to get shit done - by talking. It takes doing to do shit.
Guess I'm a programmer
You use Lemmy, that's something at least
We're all in the development hell pipeline over here...

Honestly, how many workers really want a meeting?
Depends on the meeting. I look forward to meetings where the process people will explain how stuff actually works so we know how to build the feature that will interface with their systems
Ok. That's totally true, I also really enjoy meetings where people show me what they do in depth so I can build automation around their actual processes, as well as find ways to improve those processes and save time and effort.
I too heard about such meetings. I'm yet to participate in one though.
Thats a shame!
Managers do. Collecting status and showing who’s boss is their work.
Marketing types. “Designers” (I.e. people who drive product requirement.) People who just love to hear themselves talk. Also we have this one QA guy who can’t code for shit and always wants someone else to do his work for him. He wants to be on zoom calls 24/7. I’m surprised that guy can piss without someone showing him how to hold his dick on a zoom call.
