Technique 1: Sudden Absence

Also known as "The Vanishing Act", this technique involves a sudden and unexpected departure from the meeting room. The goal is to leave your colleagues in a state of confusion and bewilderment, much like a magician's assistant at a bad magic show.

Here's how to pull it off:

• Arrive late to the meeting, dressed in a ridiculous outfit.
• Act as if you're on the verge of a breakthrough, but just as suddenly as possible, ABSTAIN the moment you get your idea.
• Misplace your notes, phone, or other important meeting materials. When asked for them, claim they are somewhere else and completely gone.
