The Pessimist: Our meeting is cut back to 30 minutes? We'll never cover everything in that time!

The Optimist: Our meeting is cut back to 30 minutes? We'll concentrate on the important things and everything will be fine.

The Realist: Our meeting is cut back to 30 minutes? That means I'm allowed to kick out the teeth of any one of you plebians who starts regurgitating inane drivel that does not concern, and I mean DIRECTLY concern, the actual job oriented requirements and objective of this meeting. We'll be able to cover everything from a regular hour and a half meeting and I won't be subjected to your pathetic life stories and humorless anecdotes on a frikken Monday morning while supressing my urge to scream at and/or throttle any number of you on my way back to my cube where I have actual work to do. Work that is waiting for me in a not-being-completed-while-I'm-in-this-frikken-meeting state. You remember work, right? That shit we're all being paid for? All right! Let's get this bitch of a meeting moving!

(I'm a realist.)
