Add me to the camp of people who would LOVE to attend a meeting, but am always at work when they're scheduled.

I must say, it's off-putting to hear such negativity and lack of hope from certain people on these forums. I have found that solutions more often come from hopeful thinking as opposed to outright whining. It seems this thread was created for the purpose of nothing more than bitching about it, if you may.

That's fine and all, but is it productive?

I'm not saying we have a productive OPTION or anything, but still.
