Here is part-2 of the Corporate Humour series. It contains a compilation of various funny events happen during the webinar and virtual meetings with teams and clients:

  1. Use a bad internet connection.

2. Google shows your last search — Is masturbation healthy? as a suggestion, when you go to search something, and you forget that your screen is been shared.

3. Don’t bother to rehearse.

4. Use wireless headphones and go to washroom without keeping on mute and do whatever you want to do their. 😋

5. Don’t set up your equipment in advance and keep saying, there is some technical problem. Remember the webinar was paid. 😐

6. Attend the webinar in your underwear and then get up to fetch water in between. 🤪

7. Don’t test your connections before the webinar.

8. Attend your wife’s call and letting her know that you will bring the vegetables, in the middle of the webinar without going on mute. (And let know the others, who is actual boss). 😍😍

9. Reschedule in the last minute. 🙄

10. Don’t respect other people’s time and start webinar 15 minutes late, meanwhile discuss your day to day life. 😐

12. Fall in love with your own voice and start singing. 😫

13. Keep talking on any topic of your interest with your friends.

13. Mute everyone and ask… Can you all hear me? Can you see my screen? Am I audible? ☹☹

14. Your dog starts barking, your cats start fighting, or a family member starts shouting to call out to someone. This happens with me most of the time. 😞😹🐶

15. Interrupt the presenter by asking something to show the crowd that you are listening and not sleeping. 🤮

16. Add animation to every alphabet in the presentation.

17. Call your girlfriend/boyfriend and tell him/her that you are feeling horny, without keeping on mute. Oh My God! This happened with my friend. 😆😆

17. Knowingly stay on mute, when presenter asks you to explain something, specially when you are co-presenter. (act as you are not listening to him). 😄

18. Don’t keep power backup (indirectly saying bye-bye, when your boss forces to attend webinar).😁

19. Start speaking without checking whether you are on mute or not. Once realized, say- Ohhh F***, now I have to repeat again. 😂

20. Keep texting on whatsapp with sound on during webinar, without keeping mute. 😏

21. Have the kids yelling and the wife moving around in the background chiding them or with a laundry basket. Enraged and offended feminists can replace the word wife with husband. LOL 🤣

22. Ask every minute, am I audible? 😌

23. Start sharing personal experiences as you want someone to share your story.

24. Repeat the only line you know.

25. Surf social media, while you forget that a screen is been shared. 😂

26. During Webinar repeat a word like “right” many times.

27. Open mic to all participants for QnA with no formal management.
