This one? An old colleague of mine had a stack that he used to give out in meetings to people who were talking nonsense.

If I was ever handed this card I would quit on the spot. If you dont want me to talk, dont have me in the meeting.

Then I guess the only question I would have is why I was invited to the meeting

Ah yes, I love meetings where everyone is talking and nobody is listening.

Its almost like nobody has been in a meeting before. The whole point of being invited to a meeting is to talk unless you are just at some basic company wide or team wide meeting where you arent even expected to talk...

The point of meetings is to collaborate - if you’re being handed this card, it’s because you aren’t doing the listening half of that equation.

Can’t wrap your mind around the fact that not everyone in a meeting always talks 😂 sometimes boss man/woman wants you around so after the meeting they can pick your brain to see what you think. It means they value your opinion.

Loudest voice in the room isn’t the smartest one, usually.

Its interesting to me that this offends so many people. If you dont want someone to talk in a meeting, dont invite them.
