Not having your camera on! I want to see the person I am communicating with, not just their initials in a circle on the screen.

All of the above...would you do them in a f2f call? Yes there are times when literally there is no time to get lunch between meetings or you gave up your lunch for an important meeting. But I'd go off video or atleast excuse myself.

Dress for work....regardless of where it is

Guilty of multi tasking on video meetings
