I remember a meeting at my job where the boss started it with, “All right. The decision’s already been made. I just want to know your opinions about it.”

To which I replied, “Why are we here, then? If our opinions made no difference, wouldn’t this meeting be a colossal waste of time?”

Pissed him off big time, but I was the hero of that room that day.

I remember a meeting at my job where the boss started it with, “All right. The decision’s already been made. I just want to know your opinions about it.”

I remember a meeting where I was asked point blank "Why are you working on this right now???"

"Because I am in this meeting. [pause] Sir."

Earned a glare and a curt "Dismissed."

I think I was the hero of that room that day...
