Amateur Hour

Promise me you'll never do what I just did in a conference call... 

The call was wrapping up (or so I thought) so I let my attention level go from 100% to like 4% and then all the sudden I heard "...right, Alli?" 

How do you say "I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention" when two of your bosses are in the room?

My response was "I'm sorry, I didn't understand your question". 

Turns out the question was "Let's hope this deal closes with no major issues, right Alli?" Pretty straight forward question. 

Consummate professional - right here.
