It often starts with a meeting being called with too many people and no clear agenda. If you waste 10 people's time with your meeting, you better have an idea what's so important that it costs 10 man hours.
- watwut 9y agoWhich is why excusing yourself openly from that meeting (before or during) makes more sense and is good for company culture in long term. Frankly, we talk about how important it is for people to be able to speak rudely or express their political opinions in work, but the whole thing oddly stops when it comes to cold calm organizational "I think I don't need to be here".
- emodendroket 9y agoI don't think I agree with the proposition that people need to be empowered to be rude at work.
- carlmr 9y agoI'm not sure if you, and the above poster, agree on what it means to be rude. I wouldn't like rudeness at work either, I think what the above commenter meant is more boldness to speak up and say that you want to leave, which should be the norm. Not yelling at someone and then leaving, which would be rude.
