Video call (zoom, teams) exhaustion anyone?

Exhibit A

Are others finding them selves in a state of shutdown if you do more than 3 hours in a day on video calls? This is becoming a serious issue for me with doing my job remotely. 

That plus growing sensitivity to noise from household appliances!

  • I can't do video calls at all :) not only do freezes and lip sync going out cause me to shut down, my supporter has worked out I can't process information that way, I neeed the whole 3D view!

    So I'm impressed you can manage 3hours, I can barely manage 10 minutes!  I think we lose more visual cues communicating this way which makes it very tiring.  At least with a phone call you are only trying to deal with the voice.
