  They scripted their attendance with python.

  Yep.

  100% remote here – staff not permitted in the office (5 ‘hotel’ spots and a walk-in desk behind a buzz-door staffed by a rotating helldesk rep to receive deliveries and give/get laptops for repair/re-image/replacement. This from like 400 onsite) unless there’s a good reason.

  We have a few meetings, but they typically go 15 min or so; CAB meetings, strategy, an hour’s status-and-plans that goes long at 30 min, a ‘watercooler’ meeting for breakfast and random chat, to build the team and get the nerd zoomies out. No one wants to prolong a meeting, and that’s awesome. It’s an interruption, but they block together what they can so it gets it out of the way, and Monday and Friday are kind-of a bust because it’s common for 9x9 ‘compressed’ time workers to take those days off. So Monday and Friday are quiet work-times.

  Everything else is handled by a slack-like chat setup, but we light a call if someone needs to show a screen or we need fast chat between many people – crises and the like.

  You should come work here. We have a few spots open but they go fast; and people only leave on retirement (thus the opening today).

  I have a standup meeting that lasts 10-30 minutes every morning.

  Occasionally I have meetings where we plan, but they’re known about in advance and we can usually get a lot of the work done on the side before hand so we’re “done” by the time the meeting occurs (agendas help).

  I can make it through my whole week with less than 3 hours of “being on a meeting call”

  I think the real trick here is “If no one knows to invite you to the meeting, you’ll never receive invites”. This guy is basically only known to HR and one guy who emails him occasionally, thinking that he must just be super busy with other work since he replies so slow.
