His name lit up and everything.
Teacher was holding us like 15+ minutes after the period had ended.

I was not on mute.
3.During my English class, this one girl forgot to mute herself.
Her mother (from a distance): What class are you in?
Her (yelling): English!
Her mother: Oh, the hot teacher?
Her: Yeah that guy.
She didnt say anything for the rest of the class.
4.Heard the clapping sound of a kid jerking off.
His name lit up and everything.
She was just laughing and playfully slapping his hands away.
This was last semester so it was when we had first switched to all online.
I had an 8 am class that was Renaissance through Modern art history.
Anyway this kid in the class didnt have his mic muted and he was snoring.
My poor professor tried to wake him up, and couldnt.
The rest of the semester we used voice thread instead.
Additional context: coworker is a 50+ mother of three.
9.An elementary student left their camera for a moment and the mother walked by naked.
10.One time in an art class (separate from my school) my dad knocked on my door.
It was dead silent at that point, everyone was working on their projects.
I clicked the mute button and yelled, WHAT!?
Turns out my mic was already muted and I turned it on.
I startled the entire class and the teacher asked if I was okay.
12.I teach for an online university that requires me to conduct a weekly live session.
One morning I was lecturing and a student popped in late.
I said, Hello, (student name)!
Thanks for joining us.
She said, Dont say my name, bitch!
just before she realized her mic was on and turned it off.
Our professor muted him so I dont really know what happened next.
15.A girls mom: Who the fuck you on the computer fo this early in the morning?
And asking the same thing over and over.
Teacher: …I think your mic is on.
16.I just did 8-hour zoom calls for 7 weeks training for a new project.
Did I mention that shes also a teacher at our school?
Yeah, most awkward 5 minutes of my life before he realized.
19.Im a college student.
I think she had us muted.
She was ordering Mediterranean food.
I think she got a chicken gyro.
20.Not virtual, but I was a guest speaker at a music college last year.
My mic was still on when I finished, went backstage and said, Well that was fucking horrible.
I wasnt called back to speak again.
21.Im not a student, but work in the tech industry.
Thats about as interesting as these meetings get though.
He was a computer technology teacher and he just kept saying, Sorry honey, I forgot.
I wont do it again.
23.Was in training before classes started this year.
Only the principal and AP were speaking.
The teacher has her mic unmuted, phone rings, picks it up, and says, Hey.
Just sitting here in another one of these goddam trainings.
The teacher heard them just insult him.
They didnt come back to the classes after that.
Everyone found it relatable.
26.I was producing a video for some university professors on a specific medical thing for a virtual learning course.
At least I made them a fine video.
These days I dont put my headphones on until were about to shoot.
He sat on the toilet for the rest of the meeting.
28.I had to defend my thesis over Zoom and many professors came into the call to watch.
My thesis was about immune response in fish to parasites.
I then proceeded to start noisily baby-talking my cat, who was in my lap at the time.
He said, I fucking hate math.
