Another day, another meeting, another £191bn down the pan

as the person who had called the meeting kept getting called away to attend to some other matters

It could be worse - we were once in the market for buying some new SAN gear, so we arranged some pre-sales meetings with our existing supplier. We'd just about got to the "putting pen to paper" stage and had a meeting booked with the guru of SAN.

The trouble was, he was only present for about 5 minutes (of a two-hour meeting) because he kept ducking out to take phone calls.

We ended up shredding that order and buying from a competitor.
