A manager-s work-life balance is in turmoil due to him having to work at home. He has to do this as he gets no work done at work: he's always in meetings. Worse still, he has been summoned to court for speeding whilst late for a meeting. Tim drifts off to sleep, only to find himself in the dock. The court hears that he has been charged with 'chairing without due thought and preparation, failing to signal your intentions to the meeting, negligent ordering of the agenda, not being in full control of your discussion, and failing to record decisions of the meeting'. The judge presses upon Tim that these are very serious charges. If proven they mount to cold-blooded time-wasting and conspiracy to obstruct the course of good decision-making.
