Same I’m kind of embarrassed to see everyone shaming this guy. If he’s in his 60s this might be an honest mistake and I honestly would’ve kept this information to myself and not reported it unless it was clear to me it was intentional or if it happened more than once 😅

I had severe food poisoning once during a mandatory training session and I definitely had my laptop on counter while I died on the toilet for like 6 hours straight.

So I triple check camera off mute on like 20 times before I go to the bathroom, but I'm also young. I could definitely see an older person making that mistake.

The number of times I've taken meetings with my laptop on the floor of the bathroom lol

I think OP deserves an inquiry and answers. And honestly so does the report, hopefully making this a formal process protects everyone. But I have nightmares about this being me, it's not unthinkable.

In the other hand, this is such a massively poor judgement call that it needs to be addressed quickly and formally. Formal does not necessarily mean punitive.

It was a 1:1 meeting, he can excuse himself. He absolutely deserves the shaming

Ya, I also think OP overdid it by reporting it. I feel bad for the guy
