You’ve seen how, right before a staff meeting, everyone runs to the bathroom, right? It makes sense. Those things can go on forever and the only thing worse than an hour and a half of sheer tedium is an hour and a half of sheer tedium when your bladder feels like it’s going rupture. Well, everyone has to get to that bathroom. You need to think about how to take advantage of this. It’s like a watering hole in the desert, and you want to be the lion. Whenever you need to get the boss to sign off on something or approve a new requisition, wait outside the restroom just before the staff meeting. He’s bound to show up and he’ll be eager to wrap things up quickly.
