On that note, it's always best to never rise emotionally to a company decision that seems unfair or unnecessary. Chances are, whatever it is you're finding frustrating wasn't actually made to slight you personally; rather, it was probably a short-sighted initiative that some manager took on in order to show their boss that they were doing something. Especially when you're dealing with a corporation, chances are that whatever stool sandwich they're trying to shove down your throat will be shoved with the utmost corporate demeanor and professionalism—and the best thing to do is to match their energy and reflect it back at them.

This worker reached their boiling point after being told by their boss that they had to come to work early for a meeting. By their own admission, the job has been going pretty well, with good benefits and as good of a working environment as a lot of us could hope for. That is until today when they were asked to attend an hour-long meeting that they found to be a complete waste of their time… and the manager hosting the meeting themself wasn't in the office!

You're probably reading this (if you're still reading this) thinking, “Gee, I had five hours of my day today wasted by unnecessary meetings!.. And I'll probably have five wasted again tomorrow!" And that's because, for most of us, including the commenters on the original post, having a mere hour of your day wasted by an unnecessary meeting is nothing.
It's important here to impart the gravitas of the fact that this comment section proceeded to turn on the original poster of the thread for overreacting. The community where this discussion was posted is largely sympathetic to the plight of workers and will often take the worker's side in any employment issue that is shared. So, to have so many commenters telling the original poster that they are overreacting and should not have sent the email is a rare sight indeed.
