Not quite a zoom meeting, but another partner called me and I didn’t answer because I was running out the door. On my way out, I was talking to my cat in my “cat voice” about how much she loves little pets. Unbeknownst to me, I had accidentally pocket dialed to return the call, which I realized because I heard my colleague laughing on the phone.

This reminds me of when my EM accidentally sent me his sexts intended for his gf. No pics, thank god.

Not me and not zoom, but a previous associate director used to use the toilet while on a weekly call. No mute! She would talk throughout and I could hear her urinating and flushing and not washing hands after.

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much!

Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

Hi Team,

I have cleared all the interview rounds (WebEx & HR on call) for the position: VERIFIER, and also submitted documents (authentic as per my knowledge) for background verification on Aug. 25, 2022.

How much time usually ICICI bank takes to generate Offer Letter, after all the verification process??

I'm having difficulties connecting with my team over Zoom, and I'm feeling lonely. Anyone else?
