But why do such people say such silly things if it's not true?
Do I think it's 100% true?
No, but it feels that way for them.
I f*king hate useless meetings where my time is wasted.
I had a coleague express the same thing about a topic.
Business replied "well, we only had 4 meetings and at least 2 were really required so it was not excessive".
So who was right?
Everybody was right, business did not feel it was excessivez the developers felt it was excessive.
WFH works, 2 years of pandemic proved it does.
Some people like it and some people don't, it's not about arguments but about preferences.
