eli_oatHas anyone ever written about the power politics of microphones, audio quality and how they influence a remote meeting?
I leave so many meetings realizing that the people who had the most influence on the call were those with the best audio quality.
Ivan Reese@eli_oat There's so much to this. One I'm dealing with right now is that in-ear headphones (like airpods) hurt my ears, but all the other options degrade sound quality or introduce bleed or limit mobility or cost more than I can afford or substitute a different discomfort.
(Every businesswoman ever: “Yeah… stfu, I have to endure pain for the sake of career, that’s… the cost of doing business, oh ho ho I do crack myself up, but srsly work culture get fucked.”)
SandraYeah… stfu, I have to endure pain for the sake of career
AND we hate how in-ear headphones hate our ears 💁🏻♀️ intersectionality at work
Cian O'ConnorThe best solution I've found (I refuse to spend $200 on airpods) are cheap gamer headphones.
John Kaniarz@spiralganglion I have that problem with good lighting. I get eyestrain headaches staring into lightbulbs during meetings.
