Zoom PTSD?

Hello Baby Zoomers!

Can you hear me? Can you see me? Am I coming in okay? Did you hear that? Did you catch that? Should I start again? Where was I? Should I start over? No... go ahead. What? Who's talking? Should I turn off the video? Can you see me? Hold on... I'll be right back. If I cut out, hang in there. I'll be back. Ooops. Sorry... internet cut out. I can see you, but I can't hear you. I can hear you, but I can't see you. Can you see me? Can you hear me? Hello? Hello? Anyone? You guys are talking as though I'm not here. Hello! I'm here! I'm here! Okay. I'll try my phone. Is that better? Hello? Hello? Sure... go ahead and write without me. Yes! That's good. I'll be back as soon as I get reconnected. Hello? Can you see me? Can you hear me? Really? Are you sure? No delay? No scary glitch grinding gears sound? Are you sure? You can see me? Okay. Just making sure. Just making sure you're still there.

Day 1 of Xfintiy Internet
Better.
Lasted all class long.
There may be hope.
Can I trust this?
Will it run out?
Is is safe?
So far, so good
But when the "your internet connection is unstable" warning came on and your voices started to warble, I got that old new abnormal panicky feeling again.

  1. Mine does that unstable message at least a couple of times, but luckily it hangs in there.
    Proud of you for figuring all this tech stuff out!
