At least I am paid to sit at the computer. Hated being a kid, no freedom. Adult, responsibility, sure, but paid to work, go where I want, choose how to spend my time and honestly plenty of choice in HOW I get my paid work done.
You have to time it juuuust right. You want to ask just the right questions at just the right time to bring the meeting so close to lunch time that by the time you get back to your station and set up your equipment its immediately time to pack it away for lunch time.

Boring meeting are awesome if you’re paid hourly. You don’t even have to actually do anything to earn the money

It’s a trade off. The lack of responsibilities as a kid was nice. Overall, though, yeah, the freedom is better.
