Start a meeting. Then mark yourself as available.

Only downside with teams is that you can't accept direct teams calls while in a meeting and they can see you are in a meeting. You always get the odd person who dials before asking via chat if you are available so you don't get the chance to close your meeting first.

You can accept direct calls on teams while in a meeting. It puts your original meeting on hold

Code up an F24 presser in Excels VBA macro editor, and run that between your work hours.

That is a good suggestion. Interesting. I'll have to try it. Although if you're in a meeting doesn't that mark you as busy?

Which one is step 2? Is that the one after step 1?

I just open notepad and put something on the enter key and lay the laptop lid on it.

That's an interesting solution. What, may I ask, are you using on the enter key?

I set my pocket knife on mine

Depends if I want to use my phone or not. If I balance it correctly the mouse works, cellphone works perfect as well.
