If you’re late for a video call, it’s probably best not to join it with a bright red mushroom filter on your head – just saying

Meetings that could have been an email are the bane of the lives of many workers, but video meetings hold an extra set of problems – one of which is superbly demonstrated in this TikTok, shared by Emily – @heyloudgirl – back in 2023.
