"Stop worrying. Your worries are like the safety instructions that flight attendants give before take off. One day when you are about to die you will not remember them and they will not matter. So don't worry." --Masood Boomgaard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6XhrbcXEd0

Gotta love the teams mute button that is unresponsive for 5-10 seconds if your disk is under high IO.

What’s everyone’s favorite way to fake a connectivity issue?

Using a bluetooth headset is a good start, on every call there is always someone with shitty airpods or some bluetooth headset with terrible audio.
