Deep thoughts from a former consultant

  • susiederkins: i love meetings
  • susiederkins: i don't know why you hate them so much
  • josh: they suck
  • josh: kill me now
  • susiederkins: but do you have any idea how many blogs they inspired?
  • susiederkins: i wrote a bajillion during meetings by observing human behavior.
  • josh: that just means i have to create a new blog soon
  • josh: or maybe go back to pause rewind
  • susiederkins: no one else is paying attention to the meeting either. i notice who touches whose arm. who's about to fall asleep.
  • susiederkins: who's making flirty eyes with who
  • susiederkins: it's awesome
  • susiederkins: sometimes if i get really really tired, my coffee talks to me. that's interesting too.
  • susiederkins: it says, "damn, i'm sweating like a mofo nancy. can't you see i'm leaving a ring of wet on this fancy conference table?"
  • josh: hahaha
  • susiederkins: "this is embarassing man! how am i supposed to pick up a nice latte lady when i look like this!"
  • josh: you're awesome
  • susiederkins: and the dunkin donuts coffees are like the untouchables of the coffee crowd
  • susiederkins: and you can look at the owners of the dunkin donuts too and make assumptions about them based on their choice of dunkin coffee
  • josh: this is being tumblred right now
  • susiederkins: though, the dunkin donuts can work both ways. if the head honcho is drinking dunkin, then it gives him plus points in my book.
  • susiederkins: like he's 'keeping it real'
  • susiederkins: if my manager is drinking dunkin, then it's just more evidence that he's a cheapass bastard who not only won't shell out for proper analysts with the proper skills, but clearly can't even shell out for decent coffee
  • susiederkins: sorry, are you in a meeting right now? am i distracting you?
  • josh: no i've dozed off
