On the Dreariness of Meetings
Spent last day in a
meeting that was interesting, but far too long. Sitting in a small room with a great number of
oxygen-consuming individuals left me with a borderline headache, so I spent the
lunch break outside, raking the
pétanque court. This reminded me of
japanese businessmen who, according to legend, pay to do various kinds if work in
parks in
Tokyo.
The meeting inferno continued today, with a different project group. Luckily, we seem to have left the managerspeak behind us, and began planning the setup of the
platform.
I got two of the CDs I ordered some time ago. The majority (>25 CDs) of the order seems to be stuck in customs. That means I will have to pay
VAT. Lots of
VAT.
