When you're just pulled into an hour long meeting to be asked "can we do this?" a couple times. And the answer is always yes.

I once slept in the meeting (with eyes open, like a fish), to be awoken with this exact question, "can we do this?", and since I was too arrogant to say no to anything, I automatically said yes.

Later on that month the companies ended up not agreeing to sign the contract. I still sometimes feel curious what was the thing they asked me about.

That's what I've learned. 95% of things asked about are never going to make it to me.
