What is the proper etiquette these days when someone is a no-show on a conference call? How long do you officially have to wait before you give up? (I propose 8 minutes.)

I hereby propose the following for use in Zoom and other video-based meetings: If a person is trying to speak but inadvertently has their microphone “on mute,” simply hold your hand over your mouth to indicate visibly that you are unable to hear them.

Can we make it to February?

Hang in there, baby!
