Not well played by team imo, sad story but that's not how you keep your privileges

Maybe? It was an "optional" lunch meeting. I tend to skip meetings that aren't required because I want to keep working.

But, sure. I understand managers/leaders want to feel important, so fine, I show up to the meetings. I sit at the desk, open the laptop, and tune them out while I actually get work done. Like, the thing we're supposed to be doing. I have the 15 pieces of flair, ok.

Because they didn't feel like going to lunch? Was it mandatory? If so, were they going to get paid for it? And for the gas to come in just to have lunch?
