person A: I really loathe meetings.  They're usually so pointless.
person B: i completely agree. though_comma_ i'm remote so i am never sitting in the same room as others so i can distract myself ;)
person A: That must be nice . . . I'm in person.  However_comma_ I actually had a productive meeting this morning.  How novel that was!
person B: lol. it kinda is. i moved about 3 hours south of my office a few years ago and since even at the office my work involves connecting to remote data centers it hasn't changed my job any.
