  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.

I don't know how to not be this person.

Everybody else is wrong. A meeting is for back and forth communication. If they didn't want a meeting, they shouldn't have scheduled a meeting. Just write a memo or something. Everybody has far too many meetings anyways, and you're an asshole if you waste everybody's time on extra meetings that aren't even meetings.

Yeah seriously, body communication is still communication, this host just doesn’t want negative feedback.

Is the best part of, no it’s the only real reason, for in person meetings

100% agree with this.

If you don't want feedback, make your shit meeting an email. Otherwise it's a self-aggrandizement ego soothing cheerleading session.

Had a manager once who told everyone to turn on their cams so he would "know that they were paying full attention." Heaven forbid you treat your team like professionals instead of 3rd graders!

I mean in fairness I'm often not listening, but that's only in "could have been an email" style meetings.

I work from home and look like a homeless person during the week. I only shave before the monthly on camera meeting.
