One time we had a fat bald sales guy on a video conference call with customers.  So like of course the sales guys set up these meetings with engineers and then they just STFU because they don't know jack.  So sales guy schedules the call, clients and engineers get on, sales guy makes introductions, and then is just in the background.  He's working from home and he ends up standing up, camera still on of course, and reveals to everyone that he's in a wife beater and whitey tighteys.  Everyone was  :sdeek: but they all pretended not to notice.  I heard this story at the water cooler so it made it pretty far.

I'm on a a training call right now. Everyone was told to mute their lines for the moment. The trainer is doing her thing and the next thing you hear in the background is: "eff man, I'll call you later, I'm on this lame ass training right now. I know, shoot me." Trainer: "EXCUSE ME! EXCUSE ME! wHO'S TALKING RIGHT NOW!!!" Other line: "Click!"  :lol:

Pretty dumb to hang up imo. If I was the trainer, I'd take a roll call to find out who it was.
She already took it. This was like 5 minutes after roll call.

Yeah, that's why I'd take another roll call to find out who it was.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about here.  Beyond me.  Also, lopakman what is it that you do at your super amazing fun time office?  Like what is the business?  Looks incredible.

I once sat near a middle aged woman who used to call her house and talk to her cats through her answering machine.  Like, "Hi, Buttons and Callie and Checkers. Mommy loves you. I'll be home soon."

So how was it not obvious that he was wearing a wife beater to start? Did he set it up so that you could only see his neck up?

there's some guy that works from home in AZ and he always forgets to mute his phone when we are on calls and then his (est. 50 from the sounds of them) dogs lose their mind for the mailman or something and everyone lols and then he says sorry and is embarrased but it's ok because it's funny to everyone and we all make that cash.

tell your company to hire me remote from wherever i want to be.  i may not want to call in all the time though.

I work for an insurance company.  Part of my compensation package as management is based on employee engagement scores, hence all the things we do to keep employees happy.  Lot's of training goes into our staff, thus retention is very important.  There's a time to be serious but also a time to have fun.  We seem to have found a good balance here.

We play a game at my work called good news bad news.  Where it is really all bad news, but we add in the good news as a way to make ourselves feel better.

Example:

Good news!  I got a very detailed compliment on how I look today and found a potentially interested partner.

Bad news!  It was actually just sexual harassment.

I thought maybe corporate, but I think now that it's culprit.

The winner of this thread will be the colperate who comes in and simply says, "Fanning is in my office."
