Stand and deliver

My Commanding Officer does not like long meetings, so he has removed all the chairs from his conference room. You can be as comfortable as you like, standing up, but no meeting lasts longer than fifteen minutes.

A few headteachers of my acquaintence should have followed that rule.
Hopefully you learn from this😀.
Anyway i expect you to end up CO...😀
@Thinkerbell of course......I like to verify things from independence sources.
And the CIA have come out with interesting statements on this.

Link?

It also occurred to me that there may be NATO advisors involved.
Of course Zelenskiy would want to keep that quiet.
@Thinkerbell yes..try the New York Times or Reuters...it was one of those.
I’ve deleted the e-mails.

Troop meetings, this is quite understandable. Strategic meetings, this is not a good idea.

There's a purpose for both though and for you I fully understand that position.

Our guard mount meetings were exactly the same. Standing up and less than fifteen minutes.

Go get them! 👍

@DeWayfarer very true, if we are having brain storm or campaign meeting, of course is longer.

That's a great idea!

Slava ukraini.

Sorry for not having anything to add, and probably spelling that wrong, and possibly also got the phrase wrong. Just trying to be supportive.

I know your not going to take my advice but I honestly think you should leave Ukraine it's not going to ever be the same again.

I worked in a department that had that rule for a while. Not a bad idea
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@OldBrit it works for me!

He might be better at least considering other views. There might be more than one way of defeating Putin.
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@alan20 you don't have to sit down to express a view. just be prepared to make a succinct argument.
GLITTER · 36-40, F
I can get down with that. I hate meetings in general let along long ones lol
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@GLITTER 👍
Thinkerbell · 41-45, F
If your CO gets any more impatient, will he have you all stand on only one foot...? 🤔
helenS · 36-40, F
I so wish online meetings would be automatically terminated after 15 minutes!
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@helenS 😂😂😂
Excellent decision
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@BridgeOvertroubledWaters yes, i have extended this rule to my team... i can't throw out our chairs, so we meet in corridor or coffee area.
plungesponge · 41-45, M
ha i have heard of this before. It can be pretty smart as long teams learn other ways to coordinate besides meandering meetings
Yulianna · 26-30, F
@plungesponge it works, my own daily team meetings are no more than ten minutes...
KiwiBird · 36-40, F
Seen this done ✔
Smart CO

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 🌻🇺🇦
