The Meeting Curse

Very few meetings, only one recurring every two weeks and only because it’s in the contract, and no quiet hour interruptions. Everybody told me I’d never publish anything again once I become Chair, and not only am I publishing more, I picked up a second job as a translator. The secret is: no meetings, especially not on Zoom and definitely no recurring ones, no cc: threads, no soul-sucking busy work.

Everybody can do it but people are choosing not to.
