A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I don't get the point of this tweet honestly
It's probably only relatable if you have a corporate job.
No no, it's just that I don't understand what's she getting at - is she complaining that it's bad that the meeting ended 4 minutes earlier than planned and it may as well take the full time? Like yeah, but why would it?
Or is she complaining that it was only 4 minutes and not like 20 (cause she wanted time for hobbies) - but in this case, just leave this job and become a travelling merchant or some shit
She’s complaining about the phrase “giving time back”. It’s a phrase used in corporate settings that is often used for small amounts of time. The meaning isn’t really important, but I find it’s used by individuals as a way of “virtue signaling” that everyone in the meeting are busy with other priorities.
Hopefully it’s a phrase that will pass quickly like many other corporate phrases.
