MetaPost Meeting

The rhyme on meeting was bourne out of countless hours spent in them.
The opening lines have an obvious inspiration from Shakespeare's lines -

" ... a rose by any other name would smell as sweet ..."

The spirit of the rhyme is probably inspired by the following quotation that I came across sometime back -

Chyrsanthemum by any other name would be easier to spell.

A meeting by any other name

A meeting by any other name would still be as boring
Careful ! lest they catch you snoring.

Stand-ups are worth a sit-out
Execution controls are like boxing bouts

Skip levels are at best skipped
One-on-ones are tough to be slipped

All hands do not expect presence of your mind
All these meetings - just part of the daily grind ?

Dilberts, Wallys, Tinas or Asoks,
On all of us are Mr. Adam's jokes

A meeting by any other name would still be boring
Be careful ! Lest they catch you reading this outpouring !
