It never fails that if there is a high priority critical thing that I absolutely must get done that business folks will immediately book half of every day with status meetings.

Each meeting is the same. Some group of people asking me the same thing I already said 5 times that day, then them discussing for an hour while I tune out and actually do the work

Just note that if you somehow get out of those meetings, incorrect information will be propagated somehow. Even if you put the correct answers in an email and send it to everyone involved. If someone has a way to prevent that from happening please let me know. It's killing me slowly.

Step 1. Ignore everyone and do the thing you're going to eventually do anyway.

Get passed over for promotions/laid off for "not being a team player" or some BS like that because idiots can't tell you're doing your job unless you waste time bragging about it.
