By this point, many of us who find ourselves working from home have abandoned the need to keep up appearances during video conferences. Unless a professional image is being imposed at work or school, there's a general understanding of what kind of situations we're in and how we're all coping with it.
But for some, there is a need to appear professional and credible whether those who do so want to or not. While it probably shouldn't matter how someone is dressed or where they're situated when they're telling us something important, many of will still carry the unconscious expectation that it does.
Of course, appearances can be deceiving and a collective of Twitter users were recently inspired to show us what's really going on around them while they look all serious and professional.
