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

Who on Earth Are You?

We were all on a TeamSpeak meeting with a couple of our guild members who were from South Africa. All of a sudden, there was a lot of shouting and noise coming from one of their microphones. It was muffled, but you could clearly hear stuff like, “Who on earth are you?” And, “Get out, get out!!!” The sounds were followed by two shots and then silence.

He was just left there in TeamSpeak. We were all shouting. The other guy from South Africa didn’t know anything about the first guy, so we were all just powerless and left with his ghost on the application. By the following morning, he had disconnected, and we heard nothing for about a week. He eventually just appeared again online one day.

He told us how his house had been broken into, the culprits got rid of his two guard dogs, and the firing we heard was just into the ceiling in order to make him compliant. The worst part was he told us that it wasn’t the first time this had happened. He ended up giving the other South African guy his details in case it ever happened again so we could call the authorities.
