As someone who has had 2 all day meetings, it can be hell.

Day 1, one dude talked THE ENTIRE FUCKING DAY. He did not stop to have a drink, he didn't eat when lunch showed up, never went to the bathroom. Just one 8 hour long, uninterupted monolog. We had 3 bullet points to discuss that day, three. He went from 1 to 2 to 1 back to 2 on to 3 back to 1 now to 3 over to 2... Fucking painful.

This person should be studied. Like, full vivisection, take the brain out and weigh it. Try and find the insane mania core and see how to remove it from others.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this guy before in comments. He was a wild character with 0 redeeming qualities that I know of. He was also painfully combative on any concessions or requirements that his team had to do and at times actively drove the project into reverse due to his active ignorance of the machine our team made and his team controlled.
