Off Topic Funny Moments at Work

I was in a Teams meeting with a senior person from one of the top fashion houses who was doing a presentation on new fragrances. We had to keep mics and cameras on so we could ask questions.

My dog suddenly leapt into the room. The noise of his claws on the floor was picked up on the mic and I became the big centre screen picture on Teams, just in time for everyone to see him jump into the video frame and smack me on the side of my head with a rubber snake.

I was mortified, others were sniggering and the posh lady just had a "WTF is happening?" expression
