It’s such a shame, isn’t it? Even when the office closes down and we’re all sent home, the work never ends; it just infringes a little bit more on our personal lives. If you, like a great number of us around the world have been forced to work from home thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, chances are you’ve encountered what all corporate workers fear most; the dreaded video zoom conference call. Sure, they were originally designed to create an open line of communication between colleagues, but it feels now more like a sad window into the realities of our makeshift workstations. The veil has been lifted, and thanks to the power of virtual meetings, all your colleagues can now peer directly into your home, effectively putting an end to that final sanctuary all workers have left.
But fear not, it doesn’t have to be this way. Through the magic of funny backgrounds, Zoom Meetings can be great again. Keep the dream alive by changing your background to whatever you want. Who cares if you’re crammed into the corner of the kitchenette in your studio apartment? With the best Zoom video backgrounds, you can make it seem like you’re chilling in your Bel Air mansion. Taking a video meeting in your Daewoo Lanos? Forget it, now you’re in The Bahamas. With the best Zoom backgrounds, the world is your oyster and we want you to embrace it.
