Poor dog probably isn't getting a.very good walk.

God, I hate you, you obnoxious twit.

Why is this bad? Sometimes I'm all ready, camera on and nobody else turns theirs on. I try to find a time to turn it off naturally like when someone shares a document, but I think it's more awkward to be talking without it.

This. I wear a nice top, jewelry and makeup, but shorts or sweatpants on the bottom. I don’t even wear jewelry on my hands because those are hardly seen.

…you’ve never talked on a conference call? Does that feel awkward? I encourage you to turn the camera off once you sign into the meeting and realize no one else is turning theirs on.

It may help you to learn that “style” is not synonymous with “business attire.” This could be an opportunity to develop real personal style! Business clothes can look out together but there is so much more you can explore fashion wise.

+1. That and putting on this getup very early morning to go out and walk the dog is almost trollish, and I'm someone who wore a skirt suit and 4 inch heels daily for most of my career before wfh full time. Almost trollish.

Why would you get dressed up to walk the dog? At the very least, if you feel compelled to dress up, wear workout clothes to walk the dog, then come home and shower and change.

But I just don't get why you're dressing up at all.

JFC. Read.The.Room. We've been doing this for years now since Covid and many of us for years and years before that, without video because that was less off a thing. It's a conference call. It's "bad" to be an outlier in any work circumstance, so you're definitely ticking people off left and right by being "that person" who is insisting on video and presentation when everyone else wants to get the work done and we don't give a crap if someone has perfectly applied eyeliner and a flippy blowout, it actually gives "my deliverables may be mid, but...pencil skirt" water cooler girl vibes. This is bordering on career here but I have like 50k in high end career wear and always do some hair and makeup, but insisting on camera to show this off is tone deaf and I'd show you the door.

NP. You are a weird angry person. You give a lot of credence to the idea that people who want cameras off all the time have social issues.

I think OP is Autistic, quite frankly. They do't seem to pick up or understand the "unwritten social cues" that most normal people understand.

I love dressing up but can't imagine sitting around in a pencil skirt all day if I'm not leaving home. I'm not saying that you have to wear yoga pants and essentially give up . . . you can certainly look put-together in more stylish and comfortable clothing than what you'd might wear in an office setting. Office attire outside of an office setting isn't really fashionable, anyway, so take this opportunity to revamp your wardrobe and have some fun with it.

I honestly don't understand this post st all. What really is the issue. You are old enough to know you can wear what you want. Seriously what is the deal?

Gross. At least take a shower and change into fresh lounge clothes. You and op are both weirdos.

Yes that was over the top. I'm always camera ready just in case (but like really relaxed. No pencil skirts. Mostly athleisure). I try to put camera on when I'm talking or facilitating but I work with a lot of foreigners and want to be seen as approachable. Sometimes I don't turn it on though. No big deal. I'm not into extremes. But it seems weird to be mad at the dude with camera on. Like viscerally mad. Get help?
