Chapter 1: The Sudden Departure
It's time to leave! Not because you're bored, not because you're done with the meeting, but because you've got a pressing engagement with a snack machine in the lobby. Or a sudden urge to check your email on your phone. Or, you know, a family member in a hostage situation.
When departing suddenly, make sure to:
- Slam the meeting room door behind you
- Leave a trail of confusion in your wake
- Make a dramatic, yet silent, exit
Chapter 2: Etiquette for the Abruptly Departed
When returning to the meeting after a sudden departure, make sure to:
- Avoid eye contact with the traumatized remaining attendees
- Bring a box of donuts as a peace offering
- Explain your sudden departure in a series of increasingly absurd, non-answers
