Quarterly meeting. Brutal for everyone.
I like to kill time in meetings calculating the average cost of employment (salary plus insurance plus benefits plus overhead, etc.) of each person and adding them together and multiplying times the amount of time spent in the meeting to figure out what the cost of the meeting was

I have a lot to learn from the owner of this company. He is an incredibly smart man.

They say being slightly inebriated is actually what brings people to their peak performance levels. Wish my company would adopt that.

I'm 6'5" and a pretty solid weight and build. You think one "beer", basically, is enough to get me buzzed? Lol silly man...

Talking to people in India who are telling me it's against policy to give me access to systems that I am required to use in order to do my job...FML

Are you SURE you have to have access to them?

I certainly support this theory.

Everyone has told me not to try to keep up with you so obviously whenever we meet I'm going to try. It's been nice knowing you ML

Yes. 100%.

They are just doing their job... exactly the way they have been instructed to do it. Word by word.
Not saying it's the same with all the people from India (that would be stupid, there are > 1 billion people), but I've heard a story once where an Indian company was tasked to build a small website. "There shall be links on the left side in a menu". They did just that: Putting the word "links" multiple times there.

This is fact...there are two rules:
- Don't try to keep up with @scottalanmiller with drinking. Don't even try to come close...
- Don't try to keep up with me for sleep. I'm not entirely human and I can run on less sleep for longer periods of time than almost anyone...
If you break either rule, especially both, you will get hurt, and probably die...

I love getting told to send emails and open tickets when we've done this, MANY times, and we constantly just get ignored...
