pull-a-rishi

To suddenly disappear and become unavailable from all forms of human communication right before and during a scheduled meeting/event thereby missing the meeting/call/event.

Mostly used in a work environment but can be adapted to casual settings.

Looks like Jacob once again pulled-a-rishi, I did remind him about the daily standup meeting.

It's so common of pat to pull-a-rishi from time to time, even when we have important meetings.

We should fire the developer for pulling-a-rishi, it only because of his exceptional work that we continue working with him.

The boring Regional Manager's Zoom speech was going to last about 15 minutes, so Steve figured it would be a good opportunity to mute his mic and camera, get some lotion, and pull a toobin. Unfortunately, he forgot the camera.
