Years of work in the tele-industry taught me to sound and look like I'm listening even though I'm probably just thinking about donuts or Sing Star. The secret is nodding, looking at them every couple minutes to make sure they're still talking and saying things like "ummm humm" or "oh really?" once in a while. You can keep 'em going for hours without contributing a single iota of thought. I haven't heard a word a moo has said to me in years, and sometimes I feel maliciously gleeful about wasting so much of their time.
