Business 102: Friday, Period 3, Class 9

"Office meetings tend to be pretty horrible," Jim said. "Usually they mean one of three things: bad news - like there have been huge layoffs, good but uninteresting news - like you ARE going to have a holiday party this year and we'll let you know when and where it will be later, or a lecture about some kind of office etiquette or policies to increase productivity. For you, it will mostly mean trying not to fall asleep."

"If you're really lucky, you'll end up getting a video. That means the lights will be out and hopefully it'll be easier to nap."

"There's really no tips I can give you to get through it. You just have to go in and be battle-hardened. And that's why we have videos to watch today. Be strong, class. Be strong."

Jim turned down the lights, turned on the TV, and started playing a series of kind of useful but boring videos.

Jim was so zoned out by the middle of the second video that he thought the narrator had a purse. The worst part was that this was his second time through the videos.

Angela didn't understand what was so bad about most kinds of office meetings, especially the holiday party kind.

Angela did not yet know that her future involved several thousand pointless office meetings that would keep her from doing her actual work. She'd understand someday.

Mat had never been to an office meeting, and after the description he just heard, he never wanted to. Ever.

Videos were still new enough to him to have some appeal, though.

Okay. So Angela was trying to stay awake and alert just to prove the professor wrong.

She was having to work really hard at staying awake and alert.

Light, but these were dull. Mat fell asleep halfway through the second video.

Bobby was totally also cool in the non-literal sense! Really. Yes.

And also, you know, here. Unlike last week.
