Excitement high
Gathering of
the bigwigs
Discussion
papers hang
With Blackberrys
in their hands
Tension in the air palpable
Everybody in
their nerves
Decisions are awaited
On issues that
are long going to be served
Discussions
begin
Gazes stern
Reasons
demanded
Explanations
provided turn by turn
Tea mugs
poured in
Spreadsheets
in discussion
Myriad
proposals on the table
Pros and cons
presented in every possible fusion
Papers ruffled with clammy palms
Some rejects but acceptances are high
With each passing agenda
The employees breathe a relieved sigh
Instructions doled out for the upcoming meet
Pens and
diaries, how fiercely each other they greet
And then as
the ends are drawn
Relief on faces finally starts to dawn
I feel we do more meetings than actual work in the office...and all the time lost is unaccounted for.
ReplyDeleteI work on weekends to recoup the lost time 😊
Well meetings are important. Though yes sometimes they do take up unnecessary time.
