  Lies! They’re just trying to get us all back into the office!

  Honestly, I have no room to speak. Everyone in my meetings turns off the camera and mutes the microphone unless they’re directly asked a question.

    I always feel like most of the people in a real-world meeting are doing that with blank stares. It just makes it more obvious that 90% people likely don’t need to be in 90% of meetings

    That means the meeting should have been an email but a manager needed jerked off.

  So online meetings are less taxing on the brain than in-person. How is that a bad thing?

    I’ll always remember in the midst of this all, hearing a story about someone with a depth perception deficit explaining that looking at people on zoom is just ‘how everyone looks to her all the time’

    Any time those meetings or zoom calls start to feel impersonal, i think of that and am reminded of the reality of me having a conversation with another person. My monkey-brain seems to forget that the magic light dots on my monitor are more than just little lights when I’m actually on the phone.
