Meeting: Morning Light Adjustment Review

Attendees: Office team, facilities manager, and the west window blinds

Main issue: The blinds appear to open at random times, causing bright stripes across the meeting table.

The facilities manager explained that the blinds are not automated. However, several employees reported that the blinds move "with suspicious timing," especially during budget discussions.

The team reviewed three options. Option A: close the blinds fully. Option B: adjust them every hour. Option C: accept the sunlight as an unpaid consultant.

Option C was rejected because the sunlight did not submit an agenda.

Decision: The blinds will follow a fixed schedule from 9:00 to 3:00. Team members may request changes by sending a short message titled "Light Issue."

Action items: Check the adjustment cord. Create a weekly light schedule. Do not invite the sunlight to future meetings.
