I personally hate having everyone working from home - how many times have you been on a zoom call with a team, someone gets asked a question, and the inevitable response 'sorry, I was multi-tasking can you repeat the question? (i.e. they were doing something else unrelated to the meeting) - it happens over and over on a daily basis on calls I am on.

If these people were all in the same room, they wouldn't get away with it for long - but somehow it has become acceptable.

That said, I am a big believer in WFH for people that cam manage their time and dedication just as well as if they were onsite - but so far, in my experience, that is about 20% of people.

I've never had that happen.

Your team is either incredibly rude, or they're too polite to say that they're zoning out because the meeting is a waste of time.

right - and rude people wouldn't be tolerated in an in-person meeting, on a zoom call, especially without video - a lot of people don't pay attention or engage like they would in person.

In my experience, people zone out or check their phones all the time in in-person meetings.
