Ask HN: Hrs of team meetings a week is burning me out
That's just the required stand-ups. Once a meeting goes to the 50- or 55- minute mark, I start losing focus, I need to lie down, I need to close my eyes. But I am the most junior person on the team and should listen, even though most of the conversation is over my head and not-actionable for me. Is there a polite way to get out of these meetings sometimes? Sometimes I just get a shitty night of sleep and can't deal with the meetings. I don't know. I just want to vent I guess.

just recommend reading CIA's "sabotage handbook" (google it up).
There is, among others, clearly written "work as slow as possible" and "always hold meetings with >5 participants"
meetings are inefficient and costs not only the nerves of the audience. I would suggest to your employer to focus on the important parts and just let the people gather, who are critical for that topic. This will accelerate the whole thing and no one needs to know everything. If "everyone should know!" is said like that by your team-manager, then, the manager is clueless and don't wont to do his work but instead "sabotage" the whole project by his cluelessness.
