Why a no-meeting day is a sad day

Meeting started at 1 pm.

...

15 minutes into the meeting

B and C, previously missing at 1 pm, required for the meeting appeared in the office, 1 of them with a cup of  C*ldst*ne Ice cream in his hand. When teased on being late, his excuse was that he drove with 1 hand holding the ice cream and 1 hand on the wheel to avoid being even later.

18 minutes into the meeting

B : I heard the French went back already. Now I guess we have to follow the US team.

A : Yeah they had too many controversies.

C : Not coming to practice, not doing this, that...

B : Hahaha, they could say they were paid to play the game, not to practice.

A : Only they could do that.

C : Now they're out though, they don't advance.

gw : US team just won today, too.

B : They just played Algeria rite? They're advancing.

gw : Yep.

...

20 minutes into the meeting

A : UK Pound Sterling weakens.

B : So this is the best time to vacation to UK?

...

30 minutes into the meeting

Meeting ends, coinciding with C running out of his ice cream.

This is why I have fun at work, and why a no-meeting day is a relatively sad day.
