Video conferencing mishaps

bosstrabs

There was a uni lecturer in China who got the boot for broadcasting from her bedroom, thinking the class was over and then treating her students to a live display of her and her boyfriend going at it. That video, unfortunately, did not seem to do the rounds, the story just surfaced.

There was also this one, quite funny for the content of the chat:

During Lockdown 1 my eldest throw up next to me whilst I was on video call with two clients. Certainly broke the ice that one as I hurried made my excuses “Sorry, my son has just barfed” etc. So much so that during Lockdown 2 one of them recalled the event yet said it wasnt the worst thing he’d had happen during a video call.

FabiParas Dan, that’s hilarious 😂 I mean, I’m sorry your little one was sick, and that it had to be right next to you, but I would have lol’d.

I am sick of seeing the shared videos of people’s cats intruding on their Zoom call and walking over their keyboard, it’s almost like some people set it up for attention:

“Oh look, my CAT! Oh my, I MUST HAVE ACCIDENTALLY LEFT THE DOOR OPEN!”
“Oh my, isn’t he so ADORBS?”

bosstrabs To be fair though, cats don’t give a fuck 😂 I think they LIVE to intrude.

Kells77 That one of the bloke changed into a cat with a filter genuinely made me laugh the first time I saw it.

This is the kind of shit I hate and am sick of seeing…

(it’s not amusing anymore)

Kells77

bosstrabs Yeah I mean, ok, the cat’s in the shot, but it doesn’t have to be recognized. I mean, I have someone on my team whose children are in the background screaming half the time when she’s not on mute. We all just ignore it for the most part.

That bullshit about the parish meeting was appalling. No way that should have made any news channel.

Kells77

Christian I don’t know what you’re talking about lol

this chaos made the national news

Christian omg….lol. People be trippin. But yeah, with everything going on in the world these days, that’s not newsworthy. Then again, neither is the cat filter mishap above, and yet….😂

Aye. Was a journalist from NYC I think.

Not great etiquette

Mad_Cyril Nothing matches poor old Jeffrey Toobin knocking one out to his zoom colleagues when he thought the meeting had finished. Got sacked from CNN for that ….. quite bad personal administration.

baggers44 That’s the clip Nasser put up earlier in the thread 🤣

NasserAlazzawi I just got a chance to watch that…omg. 🤣 Fucking dying. I remember that now too and yeah..why the mask, bro? 😂
