You don't attend all your meetings?

I mean, ya many meetings are largely unnecessary, but if you're missing a fair bit of them and still employed the middle managers aren't doing their job I guess ๐Ÿ˜‚

My situation might be unique there (and I realize describing this that calling them "my meetings" might be deceptively inaccurate). I support tools used by multiple teams, so when they're upgrading or planning, I should be there, but the rest of the time I have nothing to add to their efforts. The result is I'm invited to roughly 20 hours of meetings per week, and attend closer to 8.
