Today I have a two hour meeting
three hours away
at noon.
That is the only thing
I have to do at this location.
Yep, very poor planning.
It completely breaks up my day,
ensuring
that I do nothing before the meeting.
So basically this is an eight hour meeting.
It turns out
I can’t do this meeting another way
(the client refuses alternative methods)
and I have to factor it into my cost
of taking on this project.
But that isn’t always the case.
If travel time is a beyotch for a meeting,
try to meet half way
or accumulate things to do in the same location
or figure out a way
to share the information
without meeting face-to-face.
