No company holds to it. Ditto with no meetings over lunch hour. I’m not sure whether they intend to have it actually be a thing or it’s just something they say to potential new hires.
lol
Literally had a 4pm friday brief and a check in scheduled monday at noon for multiple scripts. That was fun.
Yeah that’s ridiculous
We don't even have a "No meetings on meetings". All meetings get stacked.
We are not. How? Clients don’t take Fridays (or weekends) off from their communication needs.
I’ve had a client who had no meeting Fridays in Summer. So that made it easier. I do think it’s something you can strive for and make exceptions.
It really depends on the client.
We are in a client business. You can try, and kudos if it works.
Ideas like this just devalue genuinely helpful moves because they’re unrealistic to uphold and compromise the importance of other - more useful - safeguards.
No, but I just decline them all.
Yes and no
If I’m scheduling the meeting I try to avoid Friday’s and noon where I can, but I get put in a lot of lunch or Friday meetings if clients are handing the meeting or if I’m backfilling on another team 🫠
