Copilot will help with productivity

If it can tell me how to stop anyone at or above p3 from scheduling a meeting to "discuss tomorrows meeting."

Tomorrows meeting by the way is billed as "brief introduction..."

Maybe we can get a Kindergarten teacher to come in and give their TED talk on "introduction best practices?"

Surprisingly Copilot is already beginning to replace many employees in India. Have you noticed push for aggressive growth there has stalled?

Those d-mb meetings are the time to get up and go to the bathroom and take a huge dump while playing Royal Kingdom.

Copilot is being monitored. Use it or lose it

@ag this is the way. It's not being incentivized to be less productive, it's being incentivized to optimize your workflow for management's definition of productivity. They are getting exactly what they are asking for, not necessarily what they want.

Honestly I've stopped giving a sh-t about this

If you believe the rumors they are monitoring computer activity to measure "productivity," you should be aiming to be in more useless teams meetings, not less. This kind of thing helps you stay off the monitoring software's radar

I've also stopped multitasking during useless meetings. I used to half listen and half work on actual useful tasks on my second screen. Now i save the tasks and do them sequential with teams meetings rather than in parallel, so that I can appear to be busy for longer stretches of time

If I get busy I go back to multitasking and declining useless meetings. But if you're not super crunched, its good to have this stuff to fluff out your schedule

Seems insane to me to set up metrics that directly incent people to be less productive, but I'm not a certified business genius like Charlie
