No, I'm saying if my boss tells me to be at a meeting everyday at 10 and I'm not there for 2 weeks I'm probably going to get fired.

Punctuality is overrated in general, and especially in software. Most meetings are a waste of time because no decision is made in them.

Wearing pants are overrated in general and a waste of time as well, but I'd be in trouble for forgetting them when going into the office as well.

One day we may need to call a meeting that no one thinks is worth their attention. There's plenty of hoops that one must work through in one's day to day that we just have to put up if we want to keep the business moving.

Most meetings are a waste of time, true.

No decisions are made in most meetings, also true.

But the former is not caused by the latter; making decisions isn't the only productive reason to have a meeting.

Where did that come from?
