The importance of the mute button

He went to the loo,

But forgot to do

What all good consultants must -

Disregarded the mute,

And the sounds of a poo…

Well - that conference call was a bust.

A most British response,

Of an awkward silence,

And no one dared to make a sound,

Though the suspect had realised

It was business as usual -

And the culprit was never found!

Or Jim for example

Who "muted" his girlfriend

Then called her an annoying bitch…

But she heard it all,

They broke up the next day,

And he blamed me for being the snitch!

So my dear friends,

and colleagues alike,

I pray that you follow suit.

Don't get caught out

For being a fool…

Remember to always hit mute!
