These People Are Having The Worst Time Working From Home & It's As Funny As It Can Get
When we asked our bosses for work from home, we did not think things through. Now that most of us are forced to stay home owing to coronavirus lockdown in various countries, we are realising what a disaster working from home can be.
With parents barging into your rooms while you're in a meeting to kids ripping important documents to shreds, working from home has proven to be the opposite of ideal for most people.
- Cringe! Shirtless Dad
Recently a reporter too faced the problem of working from home. She was apparently trying to record news when her half naked dad walked in. The rest is history and the video viral.
Jessica Lang, a reporter for Suncoast News Network, was recording herself in the kitchen of her house when her father walked into the frame, his shirt casually pulled up above his chest.

In the video Lang can be heard saying ¡°What did you do, mom?¡± as her mother¡¯s expression change the moment the father enter the frame. Lang turns around to see her dad and says in exasperation, ¡°Dad! Holy crap!¡± The reporter posted the video with the caption, ¡®Work from home they said, it¡¯ll be fine they said¡¯.
- Potato Boss
One thing that people are having to do, now that meeting face to face is out of the equation are video calls. For people who aren¡¯t tech savvy, figuring out the video call situation can also be a tremendous task. For example, this image of a boss went viral because she accidentally turned herself in a potato during a meeting.
Twitter user Rachele Clegg shared a photo of a work video in which her boss Lizet Ocampo, the Political Director at People For The American Way, fell prey to the multiple filters available on video calls.

Later Liz owned to being the ¡®potato boss¡¯.
- Mom In A Meeting
A mother, obviously tired of her children barging in her room and disturbing her during work pasted this note on her door.
She warned her children to not come in as she was in a meeting and answered all their potential questions on a sheet. So if you think you are struggling, you need to remember that we are all #inthistogether.
