Because of COVID-19, most of us have had to go remote. As a result of this, most of us were forced into a lot of video calls. Therefore, tell us your most embarrassing moment on a video call!

#1

Probably when I was unmuted and I was playing Running on Empty, and my classmates went 'What's that noise?' then one went 'Myfirstname, is that you?" I realized this and muted, but the thing was broken so I said 'Alexa,' but she wasn't listening. Ended up pulling her plug and rejoining the call. Turned into a laughing matter, but this happens a lot with my other friends, by like singing, most recently yesterday.

We have been doing ESL classes via the internet for a long time before the current lockdown. One student was in a room with a clothes rack in the background when her father ran in to get a shirt off the rack wearing only his underpants. I don't know who was more embarrassed when he realised a class was in progress.

I haven’t really been embarrassed on zoom, but there are some, like: cat butt on my screen, person in the background, and not being muted.

Ah, jeez. One time during a video call for band class, we were sharing songs we liked. My chromebook often spazzes out and lags so its annoying. I was typing ¨I have a song¨ in the chat, but my chromebook decided at that moment to spaz out, and it did not register the ¨G¨ i had typed at the end of ¨song¨. So I accidentally sent, in the public chat, ¨I have a son¨. I´m in 10th grade. Everyone was just ¨...ooook...¨ I WAS SO EMBARRASSED!

Alright so I was in history class at home(zoom) and my dog came over to me to give him attention. I was mumbling in a baby vice "who's a good boy? You are! You are!" and I heard my teacher ask "What was that!?" and I realized I wasn't muted. I apologized and he understood.

Today when I was in art class, My camera was pointed at my art and my phone was next to it with my reference and while I was doing school I was also listening to music and I paused the music to answer a question that my teacher asked and I guess I didn't mute myself again because then I unpause the music and everyone got to hear "bust that p**** open"...........

This is going to take some explanation...

I was waiting for our maths teacher to show up in the meeting and I started getting a little bored. So I went on scratch (coding website) and started adding some things to a game I was making. When I was testing it, the teacher joined without me knowing. And since I had been messing around before, and was unmuted, my teacher and the whole class could hear a dog yapping while I was testing my characters jumping. Soon found out teacher was here and returned to the lesson.

Not the most interesting story, but it was quite funny at the time.

Working with a friend outside while helping teach some first graders to read( I am a teachers aid an elective at my school) and my friend proceeds to sing, very loudly so I start flapping my arms at her to stop and the she dropped the f bomb while. I was unmuted the whole time teaching FIRST GRADERS! I was horrified but none of them seemed to have picked up on it. Told the teacher after and apologized it ended up alright

Not me, but my uncle was at a live performance of "Wicked" and he was doing a MarcoPolo. So while he was talking and telling his friend where he was, he was on the balcony and dropped his phone off the balcony. The video didn't finish until he went downstairs and had to apologize to the people below for hitting on the head with his phone.

I was running a presentation and my mom set off the fire alarm when she burned something in the kitchen. I think it left everyone slightly deaf for days.

I didn’t mute my mic and ended up saying a sarcastic comment on ZOOM where it switches to your face when you speak.
