My screen was pinned on Teams. AIBU to find it creepy?

[Mls1984btc]

The screen share stopped and the person took ages to fuff around with the buttons. Unfortunately everybody can see that this person has pinned my screen so that it stay focused and big on the screen even though I wasn’t talking/ my initial is not one of the first alphabets.

I have no idea why I was feeling so humiliated (probably because I was stuffing my face with croissant. It was not a pretty sight I can assure you). This person has always been awkward around me but not the sort that you can cracked jokes with.

AIBU to feel a bit creep out around this person?

I think it's weird that people are so thrown by the croissant.

You must all work at terribly formal places.

😂 I don't think it's excessively formal not to eat a croissant at a meeting, especially online (turn off your camera).

We would sometimes have pastries before a meeting, but it wouldn't be ok to keep eating throughout the meeting.

I did this by accident to a colleague. And I didn't confess either because someone sorted it without a word and she had just carried on with her update.

I'm hoping she didn't think it was someone being creepy.

are you sure everyone saw just you? or did everyone see just themselves??

If it helps I train very heavily on zoom (I'm just coming of the back of a 8 days in a row for example all day every day ergh) its entirely possible it's by accident or it was a glitch. I promise no matter how proficient you are (hence the mentioning how much I do it...frankly you would think I'd know the buttons inside out) it's easy to do something and not want to interrupt the session to fiddle and fix it.

I lost my own face last week for one session which was really discombobulating.

It's possible he needed to present to a face (it's really hard if others have screens off and you are expected to present to a sea of blank screens....I see this on MN all the time that people think its OK to switch screens off in training.....I bet people who do it have never tried to train like that it's very hard to do so if you can't see facial reactions to bounce off) however it would be very bad etiquette to do it without warning or ask if that was OK.

Honestly probably unintentional.

I have croissant envy.
