Sorry, I was on Mute
How many times have heard or had to make that excuse for checking out while on a conference call? For conference call participants, this humorous look, via video, captures all the things we hate about conference calls – from the barking dog in the background to the cellphone participant who keeps dropping off and dialing back in. Yes, we love the convenience of holding a meeting without having to commute. But wouldn’t it be great if people treated the conference call like a real meeting and showed up on time, ready to engage and on a land line that works? (Yes, I know land lines are an antiquated communication system, but they do work almost all the time.)
