Anyone using speakerphone (speaker with microphone) for zoom/teams meetings?
The idea is to replace the earphone/headphone for the daily calls. Any suggestions?

Yes i do, on ThinkPad yoga

In built-in one works well for me

Not sure if I understood your question properly, if you are asking about a speaker with microphone, yes I use boatstone 650 for my meetings...works perfectly!

Yes that answers it!
Do you connect it with aux?

I could never imagine to talk to someone without a earphones/headphones, all background noise and it feels like I'm sitting inside of a dome. Haven't tried with an external speaker though. Do share your experience

Hi Fishes,

I got offer Letter from infosys 2.5 months back, now when I am trying to decline the offer by sending a mail to HR, it was not getting delivered as HR left the organisation 1 month back, I forwarded mail to feedback team of infosys but still got the mail from onboarding team with joining details and WebEx link, kindly suggest how to proceed in this case.

As things start to open up fully, some of my institutional clients are sending notices that we are expected to do X activity over zoom from here on out (things we used to do in person). Clearly it’s a cost cutting measure. Anyone else feel like filing for telephonic appearance so the insurance company can save a buck isn’t going to sit well with judges who prefer in person attendance? I hope they deny all of them so my billables don’t suffer. Less travel = more desk bs I have to do to hit quota
