Study Finds Meetings Expand To Fill Available Calendar Oxygen

This is parody. The study, experts, and calendar oxygen are fictional.

A fictional institute announced that meetings appear to expand whenever a calendar contains more than 18 uninterrupted minutes of peace.

• The effect is strongest on Mondays.
• Recurring meetings showed signs of self-preservation.
• Calendar oxygen remains unregulated in most office environments.

Researchers plan to publish the full findings after a pre-read, a post-read, and a sync about whether the pre-read had enough context.
