I think if something that you hate has been happening to you for 27 years and you haven't refused to participate any more, or fixed the problem, then (just as the article suggests) you secretly like it.

This is a good observation and it took too many years to extract myself from organizations that were addicted to meetings. 13 years ago I started working from home and 11 years ago started my own business. We rarely have meetings or phone calls. We discuss and communicate async via chat and email. We try to get together for face-to-face time yearly for relationship-sake.
