What activity keeps your mind occupied when you are needlessly in a meeting?

Only if you don't have to stand up and talk in the meeting.

I can't recall the last time this happened. If it did, I would politely ask why my presence is required and excuse myself so I can return to doing real work. /ravi

I used to write code (snippets). Haven't been in one of those type of meetings in over 20 years. Nowadays, I am mandatory and have an active role.

I still try to pay attention to the meeting. With my last boss I could bet on him having a reason, sometimes political, sometimes for me to learn something new. I do not draw, since it looks like you're a bored kid who cannot be bothered to listen for a few minutes. Imagine spending a lot of money (>100k) on a product, sitting down with the devs, and then see two of the devs drawing pictures like they prefer not to be there.

If I am needlesslty in a meeting, why would I need or want to keep my mind occupied?
