This video is a spot-on dramatization of many, many meetings I’ve participated in during my time in higher education. Despite (or perhaps because) being peopled by very smart souls, the tolerance for senseless gibberish makes it amazing we manage to keep going. It’s well done (and funny) enough to be worth the 7 minutes).
This British video is titled “The Expert” and it is based on a short story, Совещание, (“The Meeting“) that appeared on the blog Слон в колесе (Elephant in the wheel) by Alexei Berezin in 2011.
