Don’t work then.

Look, you are en employee for a company. While interacting with co-workers requires human interaction, I have news for you… These are not really “human” interactions. These are business tasks.

In your case, your business task is to do work at your workstation until you have to do something else. Like be in a meeting.

If your boss tells you a meeting is happening at 14:30, then guess what? Stop working. Regardless of what is happening, just stop working.

The deal is you are not responsible for scheduling and delays; they are.

If you are being told to be ready for a meeting at a specific time, just stop what you are doing and that’s it.

Believe it or not, waiting for meetings is a part of the job as well. So just don’t worry about it.
