Meeting Etiquette

Some tips I thought I'd pass along in case you ever need to attend a meeting, or hold a meeting:

1. Don't ask questions you already know the answer to.
2. Never whine about decisions that have already been made.
3. Don't ask hypothetical questions in order to find a loophole.
4. Don't call a meeting if emailing the meeting agenda would be just as effective.
5. Don't call a meeting to tell people what they already know.
   
6. Don't ask questions that are answered in the meeting agenda.
7. Don't hog the chips.
8. Maintain a positive attitude (or fake one if you have to): remember that you're not the only one who doesn't like meetings.
   
9. NEVER waste everyone's time by asking personal questions that only apply to you.
10. (Have I left anything out?)
    

It turns out, common sense isn't so common.
