I would suggest you simply find another place to work.

By reading your post, I don't think you'll really be satisfied here -- I think this will be a recurring theme, and will slowly drain you out. Most managers seem to not get this at all -- we programmers HATE meetings, and unless it's ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY necessary, I'd rather be left out of all meetings.

I HATE meetings, the most I can muster is 2 meetings/week (scrum). Right now, I have my own business, and even when I meet with contractors, I still very seldom have more than 2 meetings/week.

This is one of the reasons I left a job a few years back - 2 meetings/day, it was simply driving me insane.
