Employees of a software development company in Silicon Valley are rejoicing after a recent announcement from management that all meetings on Fridays have been officially outlawed.
The decision came after an observant employee realized that the majority of the already sparse Friday meetings were thinly attended. Management seized the opportunity to boost employee morale by freeing up additional time at the end of the work week.
One employee, who wished to remain anonymous, stated, "I can't believe they finally came to their senses. Those Friday meetings were such a drain on our productivity. Now we can actually get some real work done."
While many employees are thrilled with the new policy, others are skeptical about how the freed up time will be used. One employee voiced concern that it would simply result in longer work days from Monday through Thursday.
In response to these concerns, management has promised to explore additional ways to fill Friday afternoons. One rumored initiative involves offering a weekly happy hour where employees can unwind and bond over their shared disdain for meetings.
Regardless of how the time is filled, employees are thrilled with the new policy and hope that it will serve as a step towards a more relaxed, less micromanaged work environment.
