So, you've mastered the art of saying "no" to meetings, but what about when you just can't attend? That's where pretending it doesn't exist comes in.
Step 1: Deny Reality
Call a colleague and tell them you're not there. It's a classic move.
Example: "I'm not in the building, I'm on a spaceship, prophets have foreseen it."
Step 2: Create an Alias
Give the person a different name. They'll never suspect a thing!
Example: "You're looking for John? No, John's in the bathroom, I'm not."
Step 3: Make Them Think You're in a Meeting
Tell them you're in a meeting with someone else. They'll believe anything!
Example: "I'm in a meeting with the coffee machine, it's being very... talkative."
