Microsoft Teams

Hi there,

Is anyone finding this system for group meetings stressful? I am finding it so taxing ....all the faces looking at me, my manager says that I have to have the camera on, lots of noises, clunkiness, it's making me start to dread it!

  • My company use another video platform but the premise is the same. 

    I keep my camera turned off for the vast majority of meetings, only turn it on if it is a small or 1:1 meeting when I need to talk. I hate seeing myself so much its so horrible - I can only focus on how awful my skin/hair/face/fat is. 

    For me I also really struggle to know when is the right time to talk? So I find I accidentally interrupt people or cut across people all the time. It's really awkward. I don't mean to seem rude.

  • MS Teams has a ‘raise hand’ facility.  I use that in a team meeting and need to speak.  Less chance then of talking over people.
