Zoom Call Disasters That’ll Make You Want to Return to the Office

We Never Spoke of it Again

I was online onboarding a new employee who was in a different city. She was in her bedroom at home, and during our conversation, she told me not to mind the background noise as her mom might be going in and out of the room. No problem. Her mom walked in and stood in the back of the room, completely in the frame, and stared at the computer for a minute.

It was odd. She then proceeded to take off all her clothes while maintaining eye contact with the call the entire time. My face was so red. I didn’t quite know what to do. My colleague tried to move her head and body in order to block her mom in the background, which didn’t work. I told her the onboarding was about done. I never understood what was going on, and we never spoke of it again.
