Being in meetings and "working with others" is not always collaboration. It's frequently waste. I can't tell you how many "collaborative meetings" are just 1 or 2 devs doing their thing with the other 4-6 sitting in the meeting in silence.
You read that right - there are 8-dev meetings multiple times a week at my BigCo workplace. The wasted time is palpable.
- hinkley 5y agoUsed to be you knew that in-person meetings were going badly when you had three people showing up with laptops working on other things during the meeting. In a remote meeting it's very hard to tell what people are doing in the background. I'm finding myself missing things because I'm bored and working on something else, and so far I've only gotten as far as the problem statement.
