Types of people you’ll find in the Zoom Land

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Delhi North chapter.

 

Now that Zoom is the only place we visit, this can be our max-relate commonly shared feeling, isn’t it? So, here’s an ultimate list of all the citizens of Zoom-Land. Zoom-landers are a bunch of talented folks who have migrated from real-world meet up locations. Let us introduce you to some of my favorite Zoom personalities! 

The Background Pro

Do you (also) miss traveling during COVID? Well, that is something this fellow will never miss out on. This one can travel to all our bucketed dream destinations by entering our virtual background monument! One day he’s in Paris, the next day he’s in Hawaii. Oh, even outer space is not out of his reach. Now, that’s real wanderlust! *daydreams*

The recently ‘woke up, can’t open the camera’

Question: Bro, can you open your camera? I feel like I’m talking to myself. 

Answer: Ummm, bro I just woke up. I didn’t mean to sleep, but I kind of did. I’m a mess right now. Next time, for sure!

 

Sounds familiar? You must definitely be a student!

 The ‘it’s not me, it’s you’

Maybe these websites/apps should start telling who has a bad connection. The number of times this one suffers from bad WiFi, voice breakage, and screen freezes: ALWAYS.

The number of times it’s YOUR WiFi issue and not theirs: well, that also happens ALWAYS.

The Tech Guru

This one is always coming up with ways by which the Zoom-Land can be improved. Want to learn some amazing tech hacks? Need help with setting up your microphone and camera? Facing problems while screen sharing? Tech Guru will always come to your rescue because not all heroes wear capes.

The ‘Am I Audible’ user?

Now, this is the catchphrase of almost all the Zoom-landers and no one can convince us otherwise. This is probably the most heard phrase during all times in the Zoom Land. So, this can be considered as a Zoomlander specialty. 

The Multitasker

Guys, take a bow! I present to you the master of time management. This one can eat, sleep, dance, workout, sing, secretly use a phone and be in Zoom Land, all at the same time!! Now, that’s how you multitask. 

The Tattler

Miss Tattler: Heyyy, don’t cheat, OK?

Poor person: I’m not cheating! 

Miss Tattler: I just saw your pupils move, liar. 

Poor guy/girl: *wears a shade next time*

 

You love this one when your friend is on the receiving end but hate them when you get her the attention. 

The Walker

Want a random house tour? We are talking about that friend who keeps walking and is hell-bent on showing us around.

*Enters while walking, greets while walking, talks while walking, laughs while walking…… FALLS, gets up and keeps walking, says ‘bye ‘ and finally,  leaves while WALKING!! *

The Glamour Gal

This one gets ready for her trip to Zoom-Land. Chooses that awesome outfit with that perfect hairstyle, sets a light-lamp focusing on her face and ‘shines bright like a diamond’ during her time in the Zoom Land.

The ‘Isn’t Pluto the cutest dog ever!!!’

They are a true animal lover and a proud parent to Pluto. We often find ourselves talking more to that cute dog than the owner and surprisingly, the owner doesn’t mind a single bit. Pluto of course, totally loves the attention.

You’ll be saying ‘aww’ in less than five seconds once you see them.

 

So, guys, these are my favorite Zoom personalities. Which one would you wanna meet? Lastly, try to visit Zoom-Land by yourself to meet such amazing people and don’t forget to share your own experiences!
