Important, if annoying, phonecon this morning between myself and two others.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \nI was late because I was stuck in a previous More Important, Also More Annoying phonecon. I ended up not calling in until the allotted time was over.<\/li>\n
  2. \nWhen I tried to IM the one participant whose IM addy I had, he told me that he’d informed the call chair that he’d be unable to make it this week.<\/li>\n
  3. \nWhen I tried to call and e-mail the call chair, I got no answer back, until an hour later, when she sent out a note explaining she’d gotten back from a business trip late last night, was on medication for a bad cold, and ended up sleeping through the call.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, three pretty darned reliable people, all of which managed to miss the call.<\/p>\n

    Heh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
