It's Wednesday morning, and you find yourself in your fifth meeting of the day. You've already navigated Tim's continuous interruptions, John's repeated attempts to "mansplain" your project, and the unexpected responsibility of organising Vera's birthday celebration, despite it being outside your job description all before 11 am.
