    Telling funny stories to the first person or two, so people join to: “-and it was full of corn! Hahaha really? What about the racoon? Oh uhh nevermind” and have to wonder why everyone got quiet as soon as they joined.

      The waiting around for others conversations are always wild and funny. They’re worth the awkward moments waiting alone.

        There’s a reason “awkward conversation before the call starts” is usually filled in on my conference call bingo card.

        (Because I usually start them)

    Don’t forget to mute your mic if you’re early!

    Also, early-bird gets to decide if the meeting is cameras off.

    I accidently started a trend among a certain group of being early to the meeting because I was worried about being late. So, instead of getting ten minutes to mentally prepare with a book or podcast, it became asinine small talk. Now I’ve just gotten better at being ten minutes early without signing in and setting a two minute timer on my phone to log into the chat. Now they complain I’m not chatting with them. Why can’t they understand I’d never choose to interact with them, this is work.

      That is DIN font, condensed and probably boldened. DIN is royalty free and one of the clearest fonts you could use on any font size. I love it, and I am not a fan of many fonts. Recommend you check Go and Etoile font families too, royalty free.
