3. Maybe instead of paying attention to the teleconference,

you should log into DU - problem solved. Just remember to spout some bullshit about "total quality management", "business paradigms", and "centers of excellence" from time to time...

4. bwa haha

Thats exactly what I'm doing. I got them on mute and every now and again I mumble something :)

5. Ewwww....

I'm sorry :( :hug: :hi:

[Ohio Joe]

8. And even worse...

We got a 25 page document and the "instructor" is simply reading the thing word for word :crazy:

[ZombieNixon]

6. Last year a friend of mine did that.

He watched a porno through the whole thing. :rofl:

[Ohio Joe]

7. I wish

Damn work filters are very restrictive though :(

[Midlodemocrat]

9. YOU need to PAY attention!!! It took me days to prepare for this

presentation!!!!!!!



:P

J/K, but when I conduct training sessions via the web, I swear I can hear snoring.

[Ohio Joe]

10. I always use the mute button

Right now though one of the people on the line seems to have a wicked cough and does not know how to use mute.

11. try this

everytime they use a buzz word, you get closer to bingo! :D

12. holy crap, that is too funny

A lot of people in my area will love this. Thanks!

[Katina]

13. there are different versions too

check out the site. I used to play this when we had our online "town meetings" at my old job. It was really funny when someone in another "cube" would yell out "bingo" Everyone knew what they were doing.... :bounce:

Here's another site...there are a bunch of them out there.

15. This is great stuff

It probably deserves it's own post, all the cube dwellers will love it.

[Katina]

17. it's a "win-win"

and participation could increase "exponentially" and think of the expansion of one's "knowledge base!" The "power shift" would be towards those who can "think outside the box" giving themselves a "competitive advantage."

whew...I'm exhausted!

16. Read the funniest thread ever on DU

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=624815

[Ohio Joe]

19. At first I was afraid

That might be the kudzu thread but fortunatly it's not. That had me laughing so much I had tears coming out of my eyes, Thanks !

[graywarrior]

20. It's the greatest thread EVER.

18. My wife blackberried me from a business meeting in Sweden

"Kill me now! Just take me out and shoot me!"

a deadly dull and endless presentation was making her suffer needlessly.
