The personalities you meet around the conference table. One of the comments shows the personality that annoys me the most.


The Hypothesizer
A special variant of the Debator/Constipator. Likes to consider special situations in front of the entire group, rather than letting the meeting end (and taking the question to the correct person in private) without displaying his cleverness. Particularly bad in HR presentations, where he seems to be carefully questioning new policies, but is actually raising issues that apply only to him. On the bright side, can be reasonably relied upon as a "miner's canary"--if he feels that it is an appropriate time in a meeting to raise the level of detail, you can safely assume that the fundamental business of the meeting is over and you can simply get up and leave.
