I dont know what to do, I know I have to accept the link sent and click on it.

Does my name appear on screen or will I have to introduce myself all the time?

Your name will appear. You may be asked to type it in a box before you enter the meeting. You may have to immediately unmute and turn your camera on before anyone can hear or see you.

Thank you, I dont want to get it wrong and look stupid.

You’ll be fine!

You won’t look stupid, whatever you do. I have daily multiple team’s meetings and still get things wrong!

As @chemenger says, I have upward of eight Teams meetings a day.

Pretty much every meeting someone tries talking when they're muted, or doesn't realise they're not muted and you can hear them typing/chewing/talking to other people.

It's a pretty straightforward interface, but really don't worry about looking silly!!

What NewYearEveryDay said - you won't look silly, it is really normal for people to forget to unmute themselves etc.

You usually are muted and your camera is off by default and you have to opt in to turning them on.

At least my current cat wont be on the keyboard showing everyone her bum.

Previous cat would not have stood for being locked out of a room when interesting things are going on.

Well it's not that bad, most of us are muted and not showing our faces now.

We had to do an icebreaker. Tell me your an extrovert without telling me your an extrovert.
