This came to mind while i was stacking a charger on top of my coffee machine.. so that i remembered to charge my bike the first thing in the morning, before even making that coffee.. I've started to stack things on top of each other to remember stuff, to force me to do that one thing and only after that i can use the thing that things were stacked on top of previously.

When I'm in a meeting, particularly with a customer, the 7 lines video always comes to mind: -

Except it isn't humorous in real life because you have to attend the same meeting and discuss the same topic every week for 40 years.

Just watch this after a meeting about where to stack our archives box (it was very hard for me NOT to be sarcastic)... so a meeting about putting thing on top of other things.

I feel meetings where at a certain point a great way for leadership that was stuck on a particular direction to gain input from all teams and then make a final decision on what action.

Nowdays the leadership is scared to make any decision lest they be axed by their real leadership, the board of directors. So they hold endless meetings about every decision because of some false notion that when everyone had a hand in the plan, they're all equally responsible for it.

I like the "surrounded by film" bit that wasn't included here. And speaking of chopping stuff out, there was no 16x9 TV in 1970.

gentlemen appraise silence for the president Marty Royal Society for putting things on top of other things hi thank you gentlemen the year has been a good one for the sake this year our members have put more things on top of other things than ever before but I should warn you this is no time for complacency now there are still many things and I cannot emphasize this too strongly not on top of other things by myself on my way here this evening saw a thing that was not on top of another thing in any way shame indeed but we must not allow ourselves to become too despondent for it must never forget the day there was not one thing that was not on top of another thing our society would be nothing more than the meaningless body of men that gathered together for no good brother we flourish this year our Australasian members and the various organizations affiliated to our Australasian branches but no fewer than 22 things on the horizon in this last year Staffordshire branch has not succeeded in putting one thing on top of another no I call upon our Staffordshire delegate to explain this we're the behavior coupler Staffordshire um well mr. chairman it's just that most of the members in Staffordshire feel whole things a bit silly I suppose it is a bit what I've been doing wasting our lives with all this nonsense bad okay John forever
