I'm sure this has been done to death, but I've been off work sick since lockdown so haven't experienced till now. I voluntarily "attended" a few online meetings this week, as I had things I needed to hand over to those who are covering me.
Is it just me, or is it a really crappy, unsatisfying, unproductive way to work? I swear it took about an hour to cover stuff we would have done in 10 minutes. Somebody's connection is always bad. It's hard to get a sense of reactions when you're discussing points where people aren't in agreement. And I swear that the phrase, "could you just repeat that, I think we lost you there for a minute?" was used about 20x per meeting.
And yet there are people who love it and think it should be the way to work going forward! I just don't get it. Am I missing something?
