I've seen a custom one that looked like the background was slowly melting.

The ones that look like a regular office and I almost believe that's my coworkers home office until I realize the lighting doesn't match

I love it when my team members put up memes as their background for some meetings. When their WLB is messed up, they put up the "ATM guy" as their background. When someone is being appreciated, they put up Munnabhai's "tum bohot mast kaam karta hai Maqsood bhai" 😂

I saw on insta, a guy had recorded himself bringing coffee and set that as his background

I like the one that makes it look like you're floating in space.

Generally curious how many companies offer phone reimbursement? My last gig did not but the current one does. Legally it seems, all employers are required to do so if we use our phone in literally any capacity (video call, slack, teams, emails etc). How prevalent is the issue of not reimbursing phone dues?

The grandchild wants to leave her apt to live rent free with her grandma and buy multi unit home and go to med school. Is this normal?

I came across multiple posts in which the pay is very much less compared to the industry standard ( on seeing their YOE)

But digging a bit deeper, we could see the lack of skill sets, not up to the market trend with latest technologies. Basically not updating ourselves with new stuffs happening around.

Your YOE nowadays doesn't matter much but skills matters. Keep upgrading your skills if you want to stick to the market trends and enjoy the boom.

Remember the story of NOKIA ?
