All of these.
But the most important are:
1. Just don’t go.
2. Fill your calendar with blocks for Engineering and only be available for meetings at certain times of the day. Make sure your managers knows and you should be good.

- jollofricepeas 3y agoNah. Consent matters. I think it’s more disrespectful to put a meeting on someone’s calendar without an agenda or explaining it’s purpose. To do so demonstrates that you believe you’re entitled to their time and that your purpose is more important than anything else they had to do at that time. If you are expected, then that should be communicated before the meeting is scheduled. For example, a good manager will… 1) tell you during onboarding what/when/where the expected team ceremonies take place. 2) give you at least a heads up via chat before putting a surprise meeting on your calendar
- wdfx 3y agoI also agree with that. It works both ways, both parties should still communicate with each other, but with words and not either entitled or childish actions.
