Meetings: The Art of Justifying Extra Time with Screensaver is a time-tested (pun intended) approach to extending the length of a meeting without anyone noticing. Step 1: Set the screensaver to "Loading..."

Step 1: Set the screensaver to "Loading...". This will give the impression that the meeting room's computer is still on, but just waiting to get back to work.

Step 2: Mutter something about needing to check on the screensaver settings

This is where the art of justifying extra time with screensaver really comes into play. Simply mutter something like: "I'm not sure if it's still set to 'Lock Screen', but I'll just go check real quick." This will give the impression that you're not just wasting time, but actually doing important work.
