"Jeffrey, I think you're on mute. I said Jeffrey, I think your microphone's off........ Oh!"

Michel and Webb were right...
Could have happened to anyone, worst I ever did was think my microphone was turned off and then decide to start playing my piano.
Stupid w*%@£&r
It'll not stand up in court.
Titter titter. 🙄
One of our US contingent took his laptop in for his morning constitutional without turning off his camera a few years ago, unfortunately for him it was also an all hands call!
Vice story says the call was an.. hold on while I check my spelling.. "election simulation". Marvellous.

"Is he making a cup of Maxwell House?"
"Oh"
I had to deal with a complaint earlier on in Lockdown when a staff member was on a video call and behind the other person was a mirror and in that mirror she could see quite clearly some grot movie playing on his other laptop. Awkward.
A colleague did also claim to have been on a call the other week and in the background of one , erm, person was a dildo on the bedside cabinet.
On a call I was on, a local councillor stood up to get something from the other side of his office revealing that while he'd smartly dressed the top half in shirt and tie, he was still wearing stripy pyjama bottoms.
Thankfully there was nothing hanging out though!
A few years ago we had visitors in the office from some of our other branches mostly down South, for some reason or other that I forget now and isn't important. At some point in the day we had a conference call, with our visitors hot-desking in an open-plan office.
Whilst we were making small-talk waiting for everyone to join, an attractive young co-worker walked through the office. "Jesus christ, look at the bazongas on that!" observed one of our more eloquent visitors.
Unfortunately the owner of said bazongas then turned around to reveal the bluetooth headset she was wearing to take part in the conference call.
Awks.
The man must be fond of a danger ****.
