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<ref>Real life example, needless to say.</ref> 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. | An internationally recognised defence to [[conference call ambush]].
