Hi everyone. Before remote working, we would have one staff meeting per week. Useful to catch up and brainstorm etc.
But now that we are remote working we are required to have a meeting every morning for up to an hour some days. These meetings have no agenda and mainly consist of 'do we have anything to cover? No? Yes? No? Funny story btw...' or most of us sit in silence because we're fed up waiting to be released.
I am now regularly finishing work 30-45 mins late to get those tasks done that I don't have time for in the morning. I thought it was just me until my colleague messaged me during yesterday's meeting saying 'is this really necessary? This starting my day off in the wrong foot every day'. Another colleague said they like them as it is 'better than looking at four walls' which is valid for them.
This morning I woke at 6 with debilitating pain due to suspected endometriosis. I'm going to have to sit on the couch with a hit water bottle so I'm not attending this time. But it won't spare me other days!
Do people think I can bring this up or not?
