I typically have 8-10 meetings a day. I try to either have 60-90 min in the morning and/or 60-90 at the end of the day for focus time... Unfortunately the end of day sometimes gets nuked because I am fried from all of the meetings

What is your job? If those meetings are just 30 minutes that's already 5 hours.

Stand up / syncs / recruiter meetings / follow ups - they are usually only 15 minutes, so you can churn em out. They are easier to do than a daily email

At least an e-mail is documentation at the same time. In most meetings no one is actually taking any notes and nothing of value is created.

My old job I used to have a lot of days where I'd have meetings every half hour or often consecutively. It was impossible to actually get anything big done because I'd just always be organizing notes from the last one or prepping for the next one. I between it was all I could do to put out fires. It was insane.
