Man Continuously Tries To Embarrass His Wife During Her Zoom Calls By Hilariously Photobombing Them
Like millions of Americans, Cara Fields and her husband have been forced to work from home to stop the spread of coronavirus. The couple are also helping their kids with digital classrooms and facing pretty much the same challenges we’re all dealing with. Cara, who is the Marketing Chief of Staff at Elanco, an Indiana-based animal health company, said any work-life balance they have had before is now blended into one.
So, her husband has come up with an awesome way to give Cara (and her colleagues!) a much-needed laughter break. From time to time, when she’s on a work-related Zoom call, Cara’s husband casually makes his way into the background, wearing silly costumes.

After Cara shared pictures of her husband’s gags on LinkedIn, they immediately went viral. “He has always loved wearing ridiculous things in public to embarrass me,” Cara told Bored Panda. “So when I converted our dining room into an office where my camera faced the dining room table, he saw a virtual opportunity to embarrass me during the pandemic.”

At first, Cara’s husband just wore things he already owned, for example, his cowboy hat, hunting gear, and Hawaiian shirts. But things quickly began to escalate. “Friends started mailing him Halloween costumes. I’m told that more costumes are in transit!” the woman said.

Cara’s LinkedIn connections are not the only ones who adore her husband’s antics. “My colleagues love this. It’s so strange to see a team of people laughing while you’re presenting, and then realizing something ridiculous is going on behind you.”

“They almost always see him before I do,” Cara said. “It has definitely helped people remember to stop and laugh during these times.”

One could argue that the pandemic has taught us a lot about working from home. A poll from early in the coronavirus outbreak suggests a strong preference for remote work. Gallup found that almost 60 percent of Americans working from home would prefer to work remotely “as much as possible” after authorities lift restrictions, with 40 percent saying they preferred to return to the original workplace. The online survey of 2,276 randomly selected adults was conducted from March 14 through April 2.
Something tells me Cara’s husband might belong to the 60 percent!

Hey..It's time for a conference call with Cara!! Wonder what her husband's going to be today!! (Runs to computer!!!)
Load More Replies...Um...she’s at work. I do not find this funny unless this is posed when she isn’t working. Women’s jobs need to be taken seriously. Sorry if I’m off base. This made me mad. I’m sorry.
I’d agree with you, but it seems like she enjoys it
Load More Replies...What do I think? I think this man is a childish, but harmless enough attention seeker. Nothing wrong with that in moderation, but once past 5 occurrences, a sharp smack across the head would be required. LOL
He should just go through the whole Marvel universe. Be a different character each day including the female characters.
I think the batman one looks like batdad. Anyone know that youtuber?
Same Hobby I photo bomb my moms calls its funny to them when they see a teenager in a tutu
Too funny! I'll bet her colleagues look forward to the calls to see what he comes up with next!!
She's probably the boss and found this the only way to get her employees to actually attend the meetings.
Ok, shes chef of marketing. If shes fine with it, her colleagues and internet people need to deal with it too. Its hilarious, seeing extraverts deal with things*deep belly laugh in introvert infj*
Don't care about dude. Want to know where she got that amazing light fixture.
