Decline.
Excuse yourself.
Don’t ever think that sabotaging a thing is amusing, effective, or a good idea.
Dumbing down, in order to ruin another person’s performance, only makes a fool out of one person— YOU.
Never underestimate the ability of competent, caring people, to discern what’s going on, think quickly, avoid a wreck, and reroute the train.
Don’t ever think you’re throwing someone off by being mediocre.
If they care, not only about their own reputation, but the good of the whole, they’ll find a way to shine in spite of your deliberate bungling.
People with known expertise, who feign ignorance, incompetence, or cluelessness, in a public setting, forget that there may be others in the room who are equally, or more capable.
Never think you’re indispensable.
There also may be someone present, who’s observing and listening; who’s interested; whose proposition could change or improve your circumstances.
When you diminish your own ability, for whatever reason, it doesn’t reflect on anyone except you.
Never mind doing the bare minimum because of the circumstances. Do your best ALWAYS.
When you’re referred to as “professional”, most times it’s not because you get paid for what you do, but it’s the manner in which you do it.
Don’t allow a bad attitude to cause you to be eclipsed or replaced by an amateur.
Bring your A-game consistently.
