I had a meeting this week, scheduled a day in advance and reserved a conference room, that lasted 5 minutes and resulted in me informing the other participant the issue at hand needed to be handled by a completely different department. This could have been done over IM a day earlier. My mistake was assuming that since it was scheduled, it was something that definitely required face to face interaction. Thankfully, I took the brunt of this nonsense and my team didn't get interrupted.
