Conference Call Anatomy™
|
An internationally recognised defence to conference call ambush. It is a common-enough scenario: some consultant has been warbling on about cost cutting metrics for 45 minutes, you’ve drifted off completely and are searching Amazon for electric shaver lubricant[1] and the question presently occupying your mind is “can I use sewing machine oil because that is like waaaay cheaper” when the consultant rounds on you with a specific, direct and (for all you know) perfectly sensible question that only you can argue. You have to buy time; “sorry, I was on mute” only delays the inevitable because while it excuses your silence it will not excuse your lack of attention to the call.
The answer is Skype trouble.
Sorry, I was having Skype trouble and my audio was breaking up for a bit. Can you say that again?
