another frustrating meeting

elionwyrPart I happened on Tuesday. One issue that arose concerned people getting work put on their desks after they leave - the request was that all work be given over by 2:30. (It's not unreasonable; we often have tight deadlines, and some people have to call California, so if they have the work at 2:30, they know to stay later and make their call.)
Part II of the meeting: management said they weren't going to set a certain time on this because "end of business" should cover it. Not a single complaint was voiced!
I was surprised - it's not my issue, but I think it's a valid one - so I looked at one of the ladies that was loudest on Tuesday. Not a peep.
Bossman asks me if I have a problem - very nicely asks, I should add. And I said, "Well, no; I'm here until 4 anyway, but I know some people wanted work earlier than that." Discussion started about why 4 or 5 o'clock was ok...STILL not a peep of complaint!
Bossman asks me again if it's ok with me.
I sorta throw my hands up in the air. "It really wasn't even my problem...I'm completely fine with it!"
Sigh.
People are silly.
