    My boss throws a tantrum if anybody is late to his weekly hour long meetings. He spends the first 30 minutes talking about football and asking us what our favorite dishes are.

      Well, compared to doing real work, or being in a meeting where you actually have to pay attention, spacing out while your boss monologes about his private live seems like a fine thing to get paid for

        Yep. To anyone saying it takes up time that they need to get work done, remember the magic words “What would you like me to prioritize?”
