    Didn’t see what community I was in when I read the post and thought there were just a lot of people here who hate stand up comedians doing crowd work

      I thought it was referring to “standup meetings,” which is what we called weekly meetings with the commander in the military.

      Everyone stands for the commander when he enters a room, then each person presenting needs to be standing while briefing the commander.

      It’s military protocol for a high-ranking officer, although the cool officers would tell everyone to buck protocol, remain seated, and just give them the bullet points so we can get back to work.
