  • Yeah but isn’t the point?

    Dropping in and out during an interview or meeting with the customer is going to look bad either way. It’s like showing up late or under dressing to the interview.

    And I say this as someone who had to buy 2 mobile Internet connections and an expensive router with dual WAN, and fail over, to compensate for my shitty home connection.

    An Android Update caused me to drop a phone call(my phone restarted) in the middle of an interview, and while I was upset, I totally understood why that might be a reason not to hire me. Someone else was equally qualified and didn’t have my issue.


  • Is this a surprise though?

    How am I supposed to feel about my coworker who has a broken headset and I only hear about 75% of what he says, (because it cuts out), and that his absolutely terrible microphone has me listening to him heavy breathing.

    He could put in a free ticket to get a free headset, or just make everyone’s life more difficult every single time they interact with him.

    Or about my “wfh” coworker that is always 100% of the time in a car, or a loud af coffee shop so I have to repeat myself many times during, and after the meeting because they weren’t paying attention.

    The “glitches” if they are constant are a priorities issue not a freak occurrence.
