Which, by definition, means that you're working on something of higher priority making the interaction a good thing.

That all depends on who decided that what I WAS working on is suddenly not so important any more, and what their motivations are.

Crassly, that really depends even more upon who euphemistically signs your pay check.
Sure we know what's best - but it's part of the price to be paid if one wishes to be paid.
Next time, I plan to be born rich. This should eliminate a number of these problems.

We all prefer no-meetings!
But according to the nature of the subject at hand there are types that fit better than others...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

A mix of some options.
CuasualCasual meeting at one desk to fast speak about something.
Focused meeting with an agenda when developing concept or dealing with big themas.
Phone / Video chat meetings when speaking with someone far or customer to clear some questions or not so big points.
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yes, I prefer
Option 1: If its a daily status meeting.
Option 2: If I need a quick input from my colleague.
Option 3: If its a brain storming or discussion on approach/troubleshooting/next steps plan.
Option 4: With my clients or non-technical boss Never mind. :P
Option 5: With distant, known people for detailed scheduled meeting
Option 6: With distant unknown people.
Option 7: For not so important stuffs where i can do multi-tasking.
So, If scenario would be given, it was easy to choose.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.
