    Yeah, that’s another type of resistance I can get behind.

    Absolutely. I’ll get right on it. Any day now. Super busy. This afternoon. Sure. Absolutely. Oh yeah, I already did it. Oh, did I miss one? That’s weird. Okay, I’ll get right on it.

    IDK, it seems like kind of a losing game to play, maybe. But yeah, I can get behind the idea.

      It’s likely to more effectively stall the actual action than directly saying no. If you say no the person talking to you realizes there’s a problem they need to deal with… If you say yes and then just don’t it’ll take them a while to realize it isn’t happening. This is especially true in a chaotic overworked environment (ask me, a former manager, how I know! Or well don’t because I can’t tell you… but you can figure it out). The Trump admin is Chaos on Meth so there’s a decent chance they won’t notice for quite a while - especially if it looks like you’re doing stuff.
