Corporate Culture Confusion: Naming Meeting Rooms


I just read Those $@!%ing Meetings! at Where the Hell Was I? and I’m still laughing!

Apparently, in Charlie’s new office building, the powers-that-be have decided to name the meeting rooms on each of the 7 floors after famous mountains. I’ve never heard of something like this, but it certainly opens up the door for some humor.

Charlie makes some other suggestions for naming the rooms:

* Days of the week
* Bodies of water
* The 7 Dwarves
* The 7 deadly sins
* The 7 words you can’t say on television (George Carlin)

I’ve suggested 7 alcoholic beverages, cause it sounds to me like someone at his office is into the booze.

And really, where does it stop? I can see each executive wanting to name his own office? The Giant Ego Office. The Superman Office. The Office Of God. Oh boy…
