The thing is given enough beiracracy there are always meetings that are _technically_ relevant but not really.

An all hands where a director lays out a strategy that was already laid out in an email and will be reiterated in another email and also will be the OKRs? Sure that's relevant to my work but I'm not going to say anything, but nobody can really say they have better things to do that go to the directors meeting about the whole purpose of our job (even if it doesn't change my personal work)

Or even sometimes things like stand-ups where half the people are going to say something along the lines of "working on the same thing I've been working on all week with slight incremental progress"
