I accidentally burped into the mic during a meeting with executives today. Nobody mentioned about it but pretty sure everyone heard it. Is this going to affect my career?

Funny but no one is going to bring up a bodily function you clearly didn’t intend to do. If you sat up and held your EarPod to your butt and farted, yes, you might be looking at an issue. A tiny, accidental burp. Nah.

Wait that's frowned upon?

I hope you aren’t serious. How would that affect your career?

If your margin and charge hours are good you will be fine… if not that burp was career ending

Expect to hear from HR soon.

I was sharing my screen on a client call and the topic changed to something I wasn't involved in so I zoned out. I started scrolling the internet and didn't realize I was still sharing my screen

I’ve seen people accidentally share their teams screen on accident and they were talking shit about another member of the engagement team, while that person was on the call. SMH

You just made me laugh

I was on a call with a bunch of partners discussing a proposal while unmuted. I got bored and opened up Facebook and one of those memes with Trump walking out to 50 cents Many Men song blared out my phone at max volume

Nobody said anything but they 10000% heard it lmao

That’s funny

Lol don't worry. You're human.

I heard worse in my previous job. I think I heard a lady who didn't mute her mic, playing with her cat, but she made some awfully weird sounds, almost as if she was moaning 😬

Lol to clarify, her pet. The 4 legged creature.

About 8-9 years ago I was in a client dinner and one of the women (client) passed gas twice during the dinner. We acted like nothing happened.

If a burp would cause your career with the company, then this is not a good place for you to work.
