I will start! few years ago , i was sharing my screen for a team meeting . since a few members started discussing something i was less interested in , i started browsing facebook and started looking at some profiles . totally forgot i was projecting - so embarrasing 😳
It wasn’t me who did it, but I was previously at a small and ultimately unsuccessful social media startup when someone put the unfiltered global feed onto an 90 inch screen in front of the entire company. I don’t remember specifics other than it included a whole lot of porn. But one of those posts is definitely my answer.
there's a bit called "constant sexual thoughts" in louis ck's 2011 live at the beacon comedy special. i downloaded this track and i guess i just closed my laptop with the file being the first thing on the screen or something because when i connected my laptop to the projector to present to the c-suite of my company (startup), everybody saw a file named "constant sexual thoughts" right in the middle of the screen ugh
I just about logged into my bank account while projecting until someone got my attention
My manager projected his coaching plan for one of his other directs in a team meeting because he didn’t realize his screen was set to mirror instead of spanning displays. I don’t think anyone else noticed, and I just kept this to myself.
Was it at Netflix? You didn't get fired for it?
I was into watching videos about Chinese economy. Autoplay led me to a video titled "Chinese collapse". Guess who was in a meeting when I shared my screen on a projector ??
Chinese supreme leader
Lmao
I had my offer letter from an another company projected on to the screen in a team meeting. Fortunately, only one teammate saw it before I closed it.
I’m always super paranoid about this so I always check my mic, the video, and what I have up if I’m sharing. So it’s never really happened to me. However one video meeting I do remember one of the people joined from home without clothes on and their camera on 😂😂😂😂. Luckily they were seated and you couldn’t see anything from the waist down 😂. Another time someone was presenting a PowerPoint about some team event and it said BBW instead of BBQ 😂😂😂
Few weeks ago, there was a post here about someone having porn open on one of their tabs. Facebooking is fine. Everyone kills time on some or the other social media at work. I can however see how facebook can be embarrassing. Wouldn't have been as embarrassing had it been insta, twitter, reddit or even blind.
Except I was stalking my ex
Ouch. Hope you at least found some info that made you happy!
