How many times have you been told in a video conference "You're on mute!"?
Ah, The Great Mute Mishap—a classic of the COVID era.
Yes, we’ve all been there.
COVID lockdowns gave us to virtual quizzes, endless Teams meetings, virtual Friday arvo drinks, and, of course, the universal mute button saga. From Teams to Zoom, from Webex to Google Meet, each platform seemed to have its own quirks....but ALL OF THEM had the Great Mute Saga!
You remember this, right?
You’re on a call, ready to share a game-changing insight, the most profound thing you've ever said in your life…and then someone seemingly cuts you off with...
“Trevor, you’re on mute.” 😱 The Great Mute Mishap strikes again!
That priceless monologue? Gone into the digital void as you scramble to find the unmute button.
(And let’s not forget Teams, with its auto-mute trap that leaves you talking into silence while the team watches and sometimes even laughs at your expense!)
Let’s be honest—the Great Mute Mishap is still going strong today.
