You know, it is possible that other folks feel the same way, and that can be taken into consideration. The meeting we hold is scheduled at the very end of the work day. It's a fun way to decompress and chat about stuff with the team that isn't project related (there is a strict 'no project talk' rule - we have other times/meetings/mechanisms for that). It's wild that you automatically assume the worst.

Where did I assume the worst? Also personally the hours between 3pm and 6pm tend to be my absolutely most productive, so if you wanted to take away a half hour of that then yeah go ahead I suppose
