RAYTOWN, MO — A gardener succeeded in his plot to ruin a local man's important Zoom call by lurking in the bushes outside the man's window and firing up his leaf blower as the business meeting began.

"This is what you've been training for your whole life," gardener Michael Tucci whispered to himself, clutching the leaf blower he modified with an extra-loud aftermarket exhaust assembly and crouching down in the bushes below the home's office window. "All the planning, all the preparation, has led to this moment. It's go-time!"

Just inside the window, architectural engineer Zach Lewis had just clicked the "Launch Meeting" button to begin his presentation. "Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to circle back with me today about the thing we put a pin in last week — V R O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O!"

Though Zach valiantly continued his presentation, the rest of the meeting's attendees had to resort to lip reading as they respectfully nodded their heads to pretend they could hear what he was saying. Zach eventually waited for the leaf blower to pause so he could resume his presentation. "So anyway, our KPIs are looking strong and — V R O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O!"

Tucci had made sure to artificially prolong the leaf-blowing until Zach's meeting was concluded.

At publishing time, Tucci had managed to start up a weed trimmer as soon as Lewis's wife put the baby down for a nap.
