A partial defence to conference call ambush, but one does not excuse you from not having heard (read paid any attention to) the dreary monologue that has gone on for the previous ten minutes, the conclusion to which is an open-ended question to you. “Sorry, I was on mute” buys you time, but time won’t help you if you don’t have the foggiest idea what was being said in the first place.
A better tactic is “sorry, Skype trouble.” For the genuinely belligerent, you could try going crazy Ivan at the bottom of the hour.
