For some of us meetings are 90% of the job.

I mostly integrate with other teams' services. Most of my time is talking with them (in "Meetings") about their API and reading through their documentation.

Code is like 10% of my week, maybe 20-25% if I'm starting with a fresh service.

Mine too these days. Further proof of my dumbness.

It's amusing that we can integrate with open source APIs without any trouble, even when there is often much more complexity involved, without ever talking to the person/people behind it, but as soon as its within a single organization it becomes a game to find pointless busy work to fill the hours.

It’s not pointless, look at all the cross functional work you can put on a few engineers’ perf reviews.
