Important things to do...

Below are things which I do daily in my office time. 

Meetings: - Most of the time participants crib about quality of snacks. In the end, the only thing achieved is next meeting’s time.
Conference calls: - Lots of us put phone on mute and wonder why I am doing this.
Video conferences: - After effect of recession and another form of meeting but there is distance involved between the participants. If you are lucky, at the most, decision is made for next VC.
Important calls: - One to one calls made to lots of people and fixing time for meetings, VC and conference calls.
More conference calls: - As if something we forgot to achieve in our last con calls. However, end result remains the same.
Then there is email: - Probably the biggest sucker of time. When not in a mood to do anything, simplest excuses is ‘send me the email and I will think about it’ and you can be at peace after that. 
 
Well, these are also my ways and means of wasting time in an organized fashion. 

Do you have anything to add this?

    Your version of meeting reminded me of Jaspal Bhatti's Serial Flop Show one episode was about these meetings exactly the way you mentioned :D
