Zoom-fatigue Memes

You know you've leveled up in your career when you realize your calendar has become your worst enemy. Senior dev walks in all confident like "I'm a grown man, I'm a senior developer, I can handle a quick call" - then opens their laptop to discover they've been double-booked into meeting hell. That calendar is absolutely bleeding red with back-to-back meetings. Sprint planning, retrospectives, stand-ups, architecture reviews, stakeholder syncs, "quick" calls that are never quick, and probably three meetings that could've been a Slack message. The best part? The tiny note at the bottom: "*MEETINGS SCHEDULED ALL THE TIME" - like some kind of dystopian disclaimer. The progression from confident senior dev to crying mess is *chef's kiss*. Turns out being senior means less coding and more explaining why things take time to people who think development is just typing really fast. Welcome to the dark side, where your IDE collects dust and your Zoom background is more familiar than your own bedroom.

That moment when your calendar notification pops up: "Meeting canceled" and your soul experiences the full spectrum of human emotion in 0.5 seconds. From the initial disappointment face (because you're a professional, right?) to the internal party mode that activates faster than a Git push to master. The sacred gift of unexpected coding time is like finding an extra chicken nugget in your order - pure, unplanned bliss. Nothing beats that sweet dopamine hit of reclaiming an hour that was already mentally written off as "nodding while pretending to pay attention" time.
