The Trouble with Always Being Early is...

...when you're working from home and you call into a meeting at three minutes 'til, no one is there! So you call the Webex number, just in case they're using that instead.

Nope.

So you call back to the conference room again. Back and forth until it's past the hour and you start texting people to see if they're in the room. Only no one you work with carries their phone around.

WTF, people.

Well, I don't carry mine around either. But someone should, just for times like this.

Finally, one of your VP's calls you at ten minutes AFTER, saying "WHERE ARE YOU?"

Just sitting here waiting to see if anyone misses me. I think I was supposed to speak about 3 minutes ago.

"Oh. Sorry. We just got in here." *laughter in the room* "Go ahead and call in now!"

Wednesdays seem to be the day awesome food shows up in the break room. I figure they were all in there. (Darn you, okra chips!)

Hee! From xkcd.
