You aren’t making any sense to me

If a meeting is a 10 minute walk and must be attended in person, then attendees are forced to walk 10 minutes. This seems like a waste to me.

At the same time, I think walking is great. It’s good exercise and good for the brain. But it has nothing to do with being a requirement for a successful meeting.

So I’m not against walking. I’m for it.

I’m against forced, unnecessary tasks.
