      Leave it to you to try and make this a group thing. Why can’t you and I ever just snuggle and cuddle and kanoodle all by ourselves without you inviting half the town?  (Sigh.)

    They might join in.
    You're better playing with this one with the help of Jane S.  If you can catch her, she might let you in on certain tactics!!
    ;) :)

    I just angle my camera to show me from the neck up. Why get dressed at all?

      I know,  right?  (((Jane, butt the heck out of this!  Take your demure and sensible comments somewhere else, please.  You're ruining all my fun.  Grrrrrr.)))  Now, where were we, Jaimie?

  • To be honest, yes. During my last one I was wearing sweat pants and my colleagues were none the wiser!

    Haha, I always get fully dressed like I’m at work. I was about twenty minutes from joining a teleconference when I post this so was wondering about others :)

    On the contrary, I do nothing but shower, put on some lipstick, and heels.
    I always offer a glass of wine or shots.  It depends on if it is virtual reality or not.

    I have a lot more agree with me this way.

    If it is a dressy, video conference, I throw on some silk and lace. This post was edited by Merlin at March 25, 2020 9:59 PM MDT

    During certain hours of the day and night, ... I deal in human exploration, enlightenment, and fullment.

    I guarantee.
    You'll have the time of your life.

      Only lipstick and high heels?  Maybe some silk and lace?  I knew it!  Where did I leave my binoculars?  Grrrrrr.

    I don't do video conferences.  In fact, I have the camera on my office phone disconnected.

    I don’t enjoy them, I way rather in person. I find video awkward.

      " . . . I way rather in person."?  A little bit of liquid lunch followed that conference, right?

    Teleconference is busy work, it makes serious business people thirsty. also, I’m calling the FBI.

      I don't think you should work there any more, that job is lousy for you. Wouldn’t welfare payments and food stamps and unemployment checks be better for you?

    I'm not in the kind of position that requires me to attend conferences in person or video.

    Not really, generally a polo and sweater over jeans
