It’s 2025. Yet, we still have to remind people to accept meeting invites. Not kidding. We send a calendar invite, follow up a few hours before the call, and then get a response like — “Accepted the same.” And you’re left thinking… why do we still have to *chase confirmations* for a meeting that was scheduled days ago? Here’s the thing: Accepting (or rejecting) a meeting invite isn’t just about the meeting itself. It’s about respect for time, yours and the other person’s. Because when you don’t respond, the sender stays clueless till the last moment, wondering if they should wait, reschedule, or move on. That’s mental load, unnecessary follow-ups, and wasted energy all for something that could have been solved with one click. A small act of confirming a meeting tells a lot about how you work. It signals clarity, accountability, reliability, and qualities that don’t need a fancy resume to show up. So next time you get a meeting invite, do the simplest thing: ✅ Accept it if you’re attending ❌ Decline it if you can’t 📆 Or propose a new time It’s basic. But basics done right often separate professionals from the rest.

We’ve officially reached the point where even the bots are more punctual than us. It’s 10:59 AM. The meeting is scheduled for 11:00. I open the Google Meet link, expecting to be the first one there. But nope. Someone has beaten me to it. AI Notet
