The bane of most officelodytes like myself is the dreaded Ritual of The Meaningless Meeting. What is needed (instead of overly pervasive mobile phones) is a meeting-dosimeter. When you hit the red zone youv'e gone terminal and are excused.
Calibrarting such a device is easy. If a meeting lasts more than 10 mins your meetogen dose increments one unit. The scale is log, so after a few longish meetings your approaching life time exposure.
Life is finite, why waste it 'interfacing' with people (who lets face it) you neither wish to be with nor would actively seek out for their opinion in the first place. Don't get me wrong, meetings have their place - as long as they are focused, short, result in clear actions and are infused with liberal amounts of coffee.
