Do you remember that one viral video in which a reporter reports live from his office and then his kid comes in the room, followed by their nanny, who panickly drags the kid out of the room, all while their father apologizes profusely to the viewers? If not, I largely advise you to watch it, because it is hilarious.

I am bringing this video up because we could all relate to what happened in the video, and the humanity everyone showed in it. Since working from home became such an intricate part of our work life, we've all had moments where we had to deal with interruptions or disruptions that we usually end up laughing about.

A problem arises when people forget that we are all human, and expect unreasonable things from others, much like the CEO in this story, who got mad at his employee when his daughter briefly appeared on the screen during an 8:30 PM meeting he took from home. This inconsiderate behavior made the employee question his position in the company, as he could not understand the lack of understanding from his boss.
