01 Current Action Items 00:10 Action Items Database
02 Current Status 00:05 Status Reports Folder
03 Team News 00:05 Meeting Support Folder
04 Tech Update 00:10 Development News

06 Issues 00:05 Issues Database
07 Suggestions 00:05 Suggestions Database
08 Review New Actions 00:10 Action Items Database
09 Next Steps 00:05 EMEA Leaders Meeting


Let me walk you through it a little.

01 Has actions like "talk to Fred", "email Sue", "scratch arse", "open mouth to talk", etc
02 is a list of everything that minions like me are doing regardless of their leader
03 Team News is great. The content is here:

"New Team Members

Yep. As empty as a eunuch's underpants.

04 is just a link to another internal page, so nothing to talk about there. Must be just filler...
05 is another link to a spreadsheet of who is working where. It took me to "remind" them recently that they had "Bob" down as still working next to me, on an account that they lost 3 months ago.
06 and 07 are also all empty databases.
09 is a repeat of 01.

As usual it was run by teleconference AND a web meeting which consister of Flakey pointing to his screen with the mouse.

I did note, in the preparation of this blog, Flakey neglected to log me as being present despite. So, I did it for him.
