I find it incredibly rude. It happens quite a lot to me, people continuing to work whilst 'just sitting in' your meeting. If you need to work then don't attend the meeting. I normally try to keep my laptop lid half shut to show I'm giving my full attention, and just check periodically. Sometimes I'll stop talking in a meeting after covering a particular section and look around, wait for those typing (who often are smiling so you know they're chatting away to their partner or mates) to realise. It really fucks me off. Bit of a rant, sorry!

nick_md wrote:Yeah I've had clients ask if people can stop typing because they hear it through the chat room. I'm talking people in the same room as me though, hammering away on a keyboard throughout the whole meeting, it's rude imo. If you're stacked with work just say you can't attend, not everyone has to be in every meeting.
