I just discovered that scheduling a call for 7 am the morning after a boozy team event is the best way to get easy agreement and consensus. No debating for the sake of debating when everyone is sleepy! 😂

You could save yourself a 7am meeting by having the same discussion immediately before your boozy team event. Easy consensus as everyone is wanting to get out the door ASAP.

7am meeting? Abuse.

I agree. It was the only time the directors were available but worked out to my benefit! 😂

@AVP my last offshore call ends at 10. 30 PM. Morning call at 7.15 AM. It takes an hour for my mind to calm down after offshore calls

I always thought mid life crisis was when you get to mid life and realize you are never going to be all you thought you would be.

I turned out better than I imagined on all dimensions, and I’ve discovered a different kind of midlife crisis. The “ok, so now what?” Crisis.
