Thursday 18 June

We had a Teams meeting with some of the agents today. It’s quite strange. You can’t even tell if the others are wearing pants. Anyway, we have this setup for people to remote into our boardroom, if we let them. It includes a camera mounted on the wall, which magically swivels and focuses on whoever around the table is speaking. What a great use of modern technology.

Unfortunately, today the upstairs mob was renovating. It wasn’t terribly noisy, you probably wouldn’t have noticed it usually, but every time a noise came from upstairs, the camera shot its gaze to the ceiling, so that our remote agents didn’t know what was going on. Eventually, we had to turn the vision off at our end and carry on regardless. It was a bit of a relief, actually.
