It takes that extra rest on occasion or even a nap in the late afternoons to get through a normal day.<BR/><BR/>George<BR/>Group Admin & MCC SurvivorGeorge, Group Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04782383736396948046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8480357.post-9448299247837388302007-10-24T04:48:00.000-04:002007-10-24T04:48:00.000-04:002007-10-24T04:48:00.000-04:00I'm not sure that introversion is the main cause for your exhaustion. It depends on how actively involved you are in the meetings. Certainly boredom can more exhausting than "real" work. And the frustration that you feel during the meeting over what else you could be accomplishing has got to be mentally taxing as well. That's why you feel so anxious and restless afterwards.<BR/><BR/>Try to promote conference calls over meetings. That way you can stay in your office, mute your phone and get "real" work done anyway ;-)Bobhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07891935693405288952noreply@blogger.com
