        Tune out the meetings if you’re WFH. Otherwise, practice meditation and learn how to get an out of body experience if you have to be there physically?

        With 2 screens, I just put the meeting on the secondary screen and programming.dev on the main one.

          I think my main problem was caring about the work that I had done. If only I could convert myself into a robot that would do everything as asked perfectly, then nothing would ever get done right everything would be perfect!

        If talking about work is undesirable at the meetings, maybe you can treat it as more of a social event? I don’t know the atmosphere, but it sounds like it might be. You’re getting paid for it anyways.

          NO! We have to talk about “work”. Except we cannot talk about “work”. Therefore we must keep our focus on “work”.

          Yeah, one of these days I will figure it out… :-P
