So brilliant! 😂🤣🤣 “You’ve got to let him into the meeting.”

Arms's character is everything I fear will become my reality in a few weeks when I go from briefing people remotely to having to stand in front of a room full of them. Thanks for another hilarious sketch! 😂

[@SamFAHntha]

All I know is, do NOT picture them all naked. It does NOT help. Let me know if you want anymore tips!

[@foilarmsandhog]

Best of luck!!

[@CSews]

@@foilarmsandhog Thank you! 😊

Update: Did a brief today and everyone was appropriately dressed, no one clipped their toenails in the briefing room, and no one pulled faces thinking their camera was off. Result! 🤠

[@SamFAHntha]

@@CSews Wahey!

[@karenrussell5831]

Loved it! 😅 Loved Foil's reactions and shouting into the mic that wasn't there, and the realisation they couldn't goof off anymore. This was so much fun to watch, looked like you had a good time shooting it 👏👏👏

Haha oh yeah!! 😂 The thought of those students growing up and still working through zoom meetings is pretty funny to me. A little sad... But mostly funny hehe

[@andreagriffiths3512]

Had a staff meeting the other day. Thankfully still on zoom so I joined wearing pjs, uncombed hair, a snack of sushi and coffee. Also because I have a tablet, they got a view of the roof because it’s too hard to hold for an hour and a half.

[@foilarmsandhog]

THATS the way to do it

[@michellebyrom6551]

So you don't have any walls or tables in your house where you can prop up your tablet. Interesting. How do you get away with it? Lol

[@daftirishmarej1827]

Been there

[@andreagriffiths3512]

@@michellebyrom6551 I don’t live alone. And 5pm is prime dinner cooking time so the kitchen table is out. My only private space is my bedroom and I don’t have a desk so sadly if they want my attendance, they gotta put up with the fact that I have no effective way to hold my tablet for hours. Not everyone is setup for such. And I can’t work from home because I teach swimming. Plus I’m not getting paid for said meeting either. It’s impossible to hold a position for over an hour. I have tried and gave up as a bad job. The stand on the cover is worse than useless and it never works. 🤷‍♀️ I do the best I can with what I’ve got.

managers love their meetings. They are not productive for anyone, but gives managers a sense they're actually doing something. And that feeling of wanting to take the rest of the day off after the meeting is too real :(

I love this so much! I actually continued going to work during covid so thankfully this hasn't happened with my work colleagues! Although I've had to get used to actually being able to see and hug my friends in the last few months! But that's not something I'm complaining about! I love Emma! She seems really funny. I'm looking forward to watching more of her content! Thanks as always!

[@foilarmsandhog]

Thanks Jenny, hugging people is still at the 'stand-off' stage of a western

When job interviews are no longer virtual and you can't have your cheat sheets lined up under the computer screen.

[@finthegeek]

Honestly, we expect you to have notes and if you have good notes and smash it out of the ball park it shows that not only are you capable of communicating well, but also that you know how to do the right amount of research and prep for an important engagement. We aren't looking to hire someone who can answer interview questions.

@@foilarmsandhog I was hoping for that. Private chatting was a big issue in home schooling. They thought they were so smart, bullying each other via the official school program. It's the best documented case of a student getting expelled I've ever seen.
