Remote Work Photo Fails
Share
Sam Parr shares a story about an embarrassing experience with a remote work tool called Peak that automatically took photos of employees.
"We had this plugin called Peak where it would take a picture every 30 seconds or every 2 minutes so you could see your coworkers. But there were definitely times where you're shirtless, where you're on the toilet using your computer, where you're walking around in your underwear.
There were times they caught me shirtless in Peak and I was like 'oh my god.' You're laying in bed playing on the computer and it just captures these moments."
