Today, I watched a YouTube video at work because I was bored. I forgot I was on a conference call and my computer's desktop was shared with 15 other people. No one said anything till it ended. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was on a conference call and digital meeting at work when I got bored and started surfing the Internet. Little did I know that my desktop was being shared. My boss was on the call and saw everything. FML
Today, I had a video call with a couple of old friends, but the conversation sort of got boring, so I started mouthing words so they'd think the connection was bad and end the awkwardness. Then, as soon as they hung up the call, I realized I'd left my music on in the background the whole time. FML
Today, I joined a video call five minutes early and started checking my emails while I waited. Someone said, “You're already sharing your screen.” I'd accidentally shown everyone my inbox for the first five minutes. FML
Today, I joined a video meeting 5 minutes early and spent the time quietly complaining about one of my coworkers to my friend. When the meeting started, I realized my microphone had been on the entire time. Said coworker was the first person to say hello. FML
Today, I was in a video conference with my coworkers. They started arguing so much that I decided to turn off my video and started chanting ,"Let it be over, let it be over... Let me go!" The boss finally stoped everybody to comment, "We can hear you." I hadn't turned my mic off. FML
Today, I was sharing my screen on a company Zoom call. I inadvertently Teams messaged my colleague saying that the lady who was speaking on this video sounded annoying. Unbeknownst to me, the lady was one of the participants in the call. I forgot I was sharing my screen. They saw the conversation. I was fired. FML
Today, I took a video of a fellow employee doing nothing but watching YouTube videos at work. When I showed the video to my boss, hoping he'd be reprimanded, I got fired for operating video equipment on company grounds. FML
Today, I was on a conference call while in the bathroom with all the important people in my district. I thought my phone was on mute, so I took the opportunity to flush the toilet. Turns out, that my phone wasn't on mute, and everyone heard it. I'm the only one who was on the conference call outside of work. FML
Today, I was on a conference call in my office with the door closed. I let out some loud farts and felt liberated. Forgot my phone was NOT on mute. There were only 3 people on the conference call - including me. FML
Today, I tried to "quiet quit" a Zoom meeting by muting myself and turning off my camera. Halfway through, I unmuted by mistake and blurted out, "I think they just like hearing themselves talk." Now, every time my boss says something, everyone looks at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I hate to be the YouTube nerd here, but YouTube removes any shock video, or anything including nudity or too much gore. 2 girls 1 cup is therefore NOT on there. That video was disgusting.

2 girls 1 cup isn't even on the Internet anymore.

Clearly he was watching one of my YouTube videos. So naturally everyone was speechless at the Amazingness.

Or maybe they have AND were able to keep it because they were actually working instead of watching videos

shoopd: my bosses watched videos whenever there was nothing going on. I guess it depends on who and where you are. Small town Texas, for example we didn't always have any thing to do we were allowed such privileges, and I didn't lose the job it's seasonal, tax season is over I don't work there when there's nothing to work on. I did keep my job, so to speak, since I am expected next year.

Atleast it wasn't redtube... Or you're censoring it by changing red to you?

You missed a great opportunity to Rickroll the people you work with. Or play that awful Friday video. When life gives you the chance to mess with people (in a benign way that won't get you shot in the head), do it! :D

As if they were any more motivated... it's about PRETENDING to be motivated.
