- jrockway 5y agoI always found it kind of sad when I would have video conferences with people in the same building. But I didn't want to walk up 12 flights of stairs (very dodgy elevators in that building; wayyyyy under capacity for an office building), and they didn't want to walk down 12 flights of stairs, so there we were. This is even worse at corporate campuses like the Googleplex. It might be a mile walk to go meet someone in person, while that 1 person video conference room is just footsteps away. Sad, but what can you do. (That said, I've been in meetings where I realized the other half of the group was next door, and said "wait, I'll just come over". Sometimes it's just unfortunate incremental iteration on the list of conference rooms and not actually a good reason.)
