PM: I don't like the number of meetings we have
Me: Oh I agree. We have too..
PM: We don't have enough of them.
Me: (oh... I was going to say that we need to cut back... But ok)
PM: I need better visibility into what everyone is doing.
Me: (so you wanna micromanage. Got it...)
Me: ... Gotcha, yup... Writing that down.

    I only hope for the worst for micro-managers.

    you _should have_ said so.

    talk with your PM about it ASAP.

    they'll think you agree with them otherwise.

    but if you openly explain your position, they just might refrain from increasing the number of meetings.

    "if you increase the number of meetings then you WILL have better insight into what everybody is doing -- first-hand insight as all they will be doing is attending meetings"
