I think anyone who works for a big company, or at least most who do, will have experienced going to meetings that should’ve been e-mails?
Some of those probably shouldn’t have even been that. Like, for instance, yesterday’s all-departments show-and-tell meeting, where literally no departments had anything new to show.
I’ve heard this in a podcast and the same principle applies at work:
Most books should have been short essays, most essays should have been pamphlets, most pamphlets should have been blog posts, most blog posts should have been tweets, most tweets shouldn’t exist.
