This happened to me in the middle of a stand up comedy bit

Lmfaoo just attack the crowd

One time one of my CDs walked out of the room mid presentation. Because it’s all windows, I could see he just went to his desk, stood there for a few minutes, and came back when I was wrapping up. He said if you can tell something is going bad, just skip it that part or end it.

That’s so garbage cuz he’s supposed to be the leader in that situation

Note: I don’t hate audit and could do it.
