I'm on a conf call with 7 people


Apr 24, 2019, 12:09 PM

Each of whom make in the $250k range, to solve a problem that I can fix in <5 minutes.

I'm probably going to end up going to spend $10,000+ dollars to listen to 15 different methods of one simple problem.

Ok they're all done with their ridiculous ideas, and have come back to mine, so we're going through that..again, that I explained when I first got on the call at 11:15.

Oh...someone wasn't listening and we have to explain the entire process all over again.

Now...Ok, we're deciding who is going to the actual work (me).

Oh yeah, before we hang up...does legal need to know anything about this? Does anyone else have anything? Now someone started another conversation about something completely different.


I completely understand why healthcare is so expensive.

And why some days, I want to blow my head off with a large caliber shotgun.

Usually, when errybody gets their food and sits in the conference room....the door is closed and the food is left for scavengers like me.

I'm only in there as the point man for vendor relations with the company whose product we're configuring, but I'll end up answering questions about sales, marketing, and billing that I have noting to do with, and I'll do it so we won't be meeting until 5:00 and still have no answers. This is one of several standing meetings that I will leave this week and wonder how we're still in business. I probably need to go in early and write 'DON'T FORGET TO BREATH' on the whiteboard so none of these Neanderthals keels over and dies during this meeting.

Before you hang up, ask yourself this:


Apr 24, 2019, 12:37 PM

have I synergized my functional teams, and have I leveraged my cost structures?






Well?

They did end up firing some folks last week.


Apr 24, 2019, 2:40 PM [ in reply to Before you hang up, ask yourself this: ]

So I guess that aligned their cost structures.

So I heard. They won't tell us who, or on what teams, so when i go to need something from one of them, I'll have to go through process of elimination on who does that function that the person who got canned that noone can tell me used to do.
