Let's talk about it

Today at this new company I experienced one thing that is rather new to me, exhaustively so too... People call it "conference call." I see it a lot in commercials and I heard friends talking about having them at work. I just never had the chance to be in one. Today, I was in two, very very long ones too. I found out that even though everyone had a handout or an outline of agendas, stuff rarely got answered or resolved. It was more like, let's bring it up and talk about it, describe it, air out your opinions or sit back saying nothing, but no one really is up for doing anything about it! So 80 - 90% of the issues would still be up in the air, which would be carried over to next week to discuss further! Both meetings ended up the same way! Maybe it's just this company?!

I still don't have a computer at work. They told me it would be set up for me soon. We'll see. What about where I will be sitting? Who knows? 

I haven't look forward to a weekend like I am today in a long long time.
