Sitting in the wrong meeting is like being stuck in an unhealthy relationship, or getting on the wrong train, or putting on the wrong clothes.
All you can do is wait for the break or the next stop, and in the meantime, tell yourself — it’s not you that is stupid; it is the wrong meeting, train, relationship, and clothes that are stupid.
They are not made for you, neither are you for them.
We all have to wait for the next nearest exit to get out of the awkwardness.
