I mean, the guy that heads Teams literally said meetings and subsequent overuse of Teams due to ease of making and doing meetings, is a productivity killer.
Sounds like to many meetings. Can't do work at a meeting.
I can. Have a meeting in Citrix and I happily work while people yabber on in the background.
The real killer is the face to face meetings. My group supervisor now demands anyone in the office on a particular day go into his office for the team meeting. That's a real time waster.
People online can't hear us properly standing around in his office. Can't get work done while standing in there.
Just let me work from home so I don't have a bunch of people wander over to me to ask stupid questions during the day.
If you want something send me an email and I'll get to it when I have time. Walking into my space, making me take my noise cancelling headphones off so you can yabber at me and break my concentration is so annoying.
I'm untouchable at home. I work until I need a break, then quickly sort questions and queries, then get back into my groove for another hour or two.
