So, this morning I really messed up during our daily stand-up meeting with the entire team. One of my managers/team leads was leading the call and, instead of wrapping things up, he started going on and on about his camper. The meeting had technically already ended, but he kept talking. This went on for what felt like forever—probably around 10 to 15 minutes longer than necessary.

At this point, I was getting pretty frustrated. I decided to step away to grab some coffee, thinking I had muted my mic. My wireless headset was still on, and I started venting to my sister about how this guy had been talking for 30 minutes straight about his camper, and how it was driving me nuts.

Well, you can guess what happened next… I hadn’t actually muted myself. My camera was still on, and everyone in the meeting could hear me trash-talking the manager. Cue the awkward silence and a sudden realization that I had just made a massive mistake.

TL;DR: Forgot to mute myself during a stand-up meeting, vented about my manager to my sister, and everyone in the meeting heard it.
