If you don’t want to suck during a school meeting, don’t try to flip on the tables. I tried to showoff once during a SADD meeting by trying to flip backward between 2 tables. Well, let’s just say, the tables flipped and I slipped! Totally embarrassing and plus there was a picture of my awful and humiliating look on my face in the school newspaper! I will never forget it!

Meetings suck.

My biggest problem with meetings is that people who are attending/running them don’t often think about how much they cost. People are expensive and there are far too many meetings that have far too many people in them that don’t need to be there. Another big problem I see is when meetings get so large that a second meeting starts taking place inside the initial meeting. Usually these meetings are only for the benefit of a few people but everyone else has to sit their listening to them. Take that offline!
