We've all been there - sitting in a meeting that seems to be going nowhere, wondering why you were even invited in the first place. But sometimes, amidst the boredom and frustration, funny things can happen that make you forget about the monotony for a moment. Here are some of the funniest things that have happened in meetings:
The "Mystery Guest" During a team meeting, one participant suddenly raised his hand and said, "Excuse me, who is that sitting in the corner?". Everyone looked over and realized that there was someone they had never seen before, sitting quietly in the corner. It turned out that this person was an intern who had gotten lost on his way to another meeting, and decided to just sit in on this one instead.
The Mute Button Mishap With so many meetings now taking place virtually, we've all experienced our fair share of technical difficulties. One person was on mute during a meeting and didn't realize it. When they finally spoke up, it was to say, "Sorry, I was talking to myself for the last five minutes".
The Embarrassing Screen Share In another virtual meeting, one participant tried to share their screen to show a presentation, but accidentally shared their personal screen instead. Everyone got a glimpse of their open web browser, complete with embarrassing bookmarks and tabs. The participant quickly closed their screen share and hoped that no one had noticed.
The Unintentional Selfie During a video conference call, one participant forgot to turn off their camera before getting up from their seat. Everyone watched as they walked away from the computer, revealing their pajama bottoms and bunny slippers. The participant quickly realized their mistake and ran back to their seat, but the damage was already done.
The Office Pet One participant brought their pet cat to a meeting, thinking it would be a cute addition to the call. The cat had other ideas, and proceeded to walk across the keyboard, meow loudly, and even knock over a coffee mug. The meeting was momentarily derailed, but everyone couldn't help but laugh at the unexpected feline guest.
Despite the occasional awkward or embarrassing moments, meetings can still be a source of humor and entertainment. Just remember to mute your microphone, double-check your screen share, and maybe leave your pets at home.
