Man, #writing is hard. So easy to spend hours and hours getting nowhere and not even writing anything but notes.
Or even not that.
Not a "animate it in a weekend" attempt on this episode, it will definitely take longer to animate coz so much will need to be done from scratch in the new rewritten software.
So can't be too topical either.
Hours and hours with a topic in mind not really even knowing how to approach it.

It's too preachy and not funny and too long and too boring but then first drafts always are and at least there's something to try and fix tomorrow instead of just a blank page.

And upon checking in it turns out the only available seats are in business class. For no extra charge.
Plus access to the British Airways executive lounge.
I will take copious notes so that you plebs can find out how the other half live!

The next person who complains about meeting notes, ROD or how long it takes just volunteered to be the next recording secretary.
Don't know if it is me, but for every hour a meeting lasts it takes me at least four hours to transcribe. MS Teams does a semi-fair job converting speech to text, but acronyms and accents gives it fits. I take notes throughout so I have something to go to and use the transcriptions to copy-paste large text.
Also, if you are presenting - PREPARE NOT…
