Hot Mic
I was on a monthly conference call with my company’s biggest big wigs. Most of us were in the conference room, but some people, who were at an alternate location, had dialed in separately. The room had just gotten quiet, and a voice on the line announced, “I hate this stupid meeting!”
The gentleman closest to the room’s phone unmuted himself and calmly said, “I believe we have a hot mic.” He then puts us back on mute before bursting out laughing. Even the curmudgeons in the room lost it. All in all, it ended up being one of the less torturous meetings we had.
