conv: I had a meeting this morning_comma_ which is typically pointless. However_comma_ they actually followed the agenda and had some meaningful conversations. I really loathe meetings.  They're usually so pointless. i completely agree. though_comma_ i'm remote so i am never sitting in the same room as others so i can distract myself ;) That must be nice . . . I'm in person.  However_comma_ I actually had a productive meeting this morning.  How novel that was! lol. it kinda is. i moved about 3 hours south of my office a few years ago and since even at the office my work involves connecting to remote data centers it hasn't changed my job any.
