Charlotte Level 19, Team Sync 2:00 PM, screen showed Q3 Engagement -22% red arrow and she kept talking over me every time I tried to speak 😶🌫️
😵💫 THE CHARLOTTE SYNC WHERE I TRIED TO SPEAK THREE TIMES AND GOT TALKED OVER THREE TIMES AGAIN 😵💫
Charlotte Level 19, Team Sync 2:00 PM, room cold AC buzzing. Big screen graph going down like mood — Q3 Engagement -22% red arrow Roadmap Budget Hiring whiteboard me grey hoodie edge trying to be small but also trying to be heard.
First time raised hand slightly said I think engagement dropped because... She cut yeah we know will come to that hold on. Hold on? Held on. Second time after 12 mins Actually in my team we tried... She again louder sorry let me finish as I was saying... continued voice cracked second time.
Third time didn't even finish first word I— and she said we need move fast we don't have time for long stories. Long stories? My story 10 seconds?
Looked down coffee cold notebook where written three points all three now crossed out by me. Woman next to me whispered you okay? Nodded but throat tight.
After meeting she said great sync team great ideas. Great ideas? Only ideas were hers because talked over everyone else's.
Went back desk didn't speak rest of day not because nothing to say but brain replayed three cut-offs loop phone buzzed mom asked beta how was meeting replied good mama listened a lot.
Worst part being talked over is not meeting it's next meeting where you don't even try raise hand.
