If you've been virtually attending school or working from home [1] these past months, you probably know the Zoom struggles all too well: trying to figure out how to share your screen, remembering to mute and unmute yourself, and attempting to hide the mess behind you [2] (trust me, we've been there!). There's no doubt that video calls are exhausting [3] and that working from home, while it has its perks, has its unglamorous situations [4] and difficulties too.

TikTok user @corporatenatalie [5] understands all of those awkward situations and decided to poke fun at them by re-creating them on the social media platform with a fun and hilarious spin in these videos. Her content is so relatable, you won't be able to stop yourself from laughing and aggressively nodding your head in an "I FEEL THIS!" way.

When There's That Person Who Always Forgets to Unmute Themselves

When You Forget to Close Your Google Search Before Sharing Your Screen

Zoom meetings can get a bit boring, so we totally understand a little web-surfing during them. However, you may sometimes forget to close that tab before sharing your screen, and bam: now everyone can see you're googling a weird question about your pet.

When You Get Put on the Spot and Forget Who You Are

Nothing can make you forget who you are like being asked to introduce yourself in front of a bunch of people on camera. Yikes.
