2023, and I HATE video calls. I mean, I don't like audio either, but video is just.... Please let me just do my work. At the very least don't make me come on camera to talk to people who also don't want to talk to me.
Same. It's one thing if I'm calling my 7-year old niece that lives 100 miles away but I miss her and want to see her face. It's something else entirely when I'm on a call I don't want to be on in the first place, listening to people I don't need to hear from who aren't even talking to me.
My favorite part is where nobody is making eye contact because they are all looking at the screen instead f the camera.
Well, that or the one person who is having some weird technical issue that keep blasting the whole meeting with strange noises.
