I just took minutes for my first Production meeting with Mr Big present. It was...an experience, and one that made me glad that I was there to take notes and keep my mouth shut.
It actually went quite quickly - Mr Big has the effect of keeping meetings moving, I've noticed. That's a good thing, given that there have been a few occasions when my inbuilt meeting-limiter (ie the battery on Mistress Mouth's laptop) has ticked over and stopped meetings that were going overtime on more than one occasion. (As an aside - it's a good idea to have a meeting limiter like that in place, if you can manage it. It keeps things moving along and cuts down on idle chatter.)
The other side effect is that he makes meetings pretty intense. The Leprechaun is proving to be good at standing up for himself, even when he's dealing with Mr Big, and I'm still not entirely sure if he's being brave or foolhardy. I suspect both. Time will tell.

oh.. um. do i have to show up to these?
'fraid so. It's still the standard Production Meeting, as called every week by Mistress Mouth - it's just that Mr Big has decided to admit that he's directly responsible for Production for a while.
The Oracle forsees interesting times involving Production Schedules for a while. Especially whilst Mr Big is producing drafts (that he doesn't often bother to send to anybody but the Business & HR Manager, who then has to pass it on to the others), and then the Leprechaun has to make it workable - in between grumbling about being taken for the Production Manager. /rolls eyes/
The Leprechaun thinks he's going to be able to set the schedule in stone 6 weeks in advance! ROFLMAO!!!!!! I applaud his spirit and sentiment, but I haven't got the heart to tell him he's dreaming.
