Could it be that meetings can often happen in email, and if the meeting is important use Skype or another in office messenger app so that employees don't need to leave their desks?
cryptodan··on Mental illness, mass shootings, and the politics of American firearms (2015)
I was bullied and still am. I have used and owned guns since I was 4. I haven't once thought about killing another person, and I too suffered from a speech impediment and didn't have it easy in school. The difference between me and these mass shooters is that I was told to use that as strengths and to use it to make myself better. I have and successfully done so. The mass shooters as of late feel like this is the only way to settle their rage and anger. It's rather sad.

The issue isn't guns the issue is the crumbling family and tge degradation of society. We humans are nothing but animals down to the core. If a person wants to kill they will find a way.

Another issue in the USA is the lacking mental Healthcare that other nations have. Many are afraid to seek mental health help because of the stigma of looking weak, much like men not reporting rape or sexual assault that they experience. Also couple that with covid19 lockdowns and that gives these at risk people lots of time to think, plan, and execute. At this time its far to late for them. As a result you get more mass shootings.

cryptodan··on Why don’t we just open the windows? Covid-19 prevention lost in translation
It won't change my habits. I'm not going to ask every business owner to provide their facilities maintenance info before I go to a place of business. If I get sick I get sick. It may or may not be the fault of the business.
cryptodan··on Overloaded: Is there simply too much culture?
It's lack of creativity in entertainment. To many reboots of television shows, no new movie topics, dual acting, political correctness, and not wanting to offend people has made entertainment dull. You can never get enough culture.

It's the OEM that offers the contracts. When a company goes to HP or Dell they say we need 500 computers 10 servers and what can you offer us and here is our budget. The OEM comes back and says we will give you 500 computers and 10 servers for 15 million dollars and every 4 years you get refreshed with the latest hardware and operating system bundles for the desktop. For the 10 servers we have 24/7 support with on-site replacement of hardware and advanced maintenance. With in these deals we offer ms windows latest build and the latest office packages. That's how it's done. The government doesn't lobby Microsoft at all.
