a new low in teleconference etiquette
I thought I had experienced an all-time low on teleconference etiquette when someone belched loudly. But no.....
Someone today didn't have themselves on mute while calling remotely and we got to hear them pee. There was stunned silence and then a lot of stifled giggling that took about a good minute to end before all of us could resume the meeting.
I think at this point, the only lower point we could go is someone farting.

Clue-ments:
We've got a conference center here in town that does a bunch of big corporate meetings. We've been hired as their video provider a number of times. Above the urinals in the men's room are signs with the question "Is your wireless mic turned off?"
Can you imagine what must have precipitated _that_!

Mike - I wonder if the women's room has the same sign....
Course, I now have a picture of a ziegfield follies line up at the urinal and the men starting their stuff at staggered times....
