Lock-down insecurity..


This cartoon reminds me of the weird paranoia or insecurity that seems to accompany lock-down among many people. Company meetings (held via video-conference) these days seem to HAVE TO HAVE some kind of "theme", I've seen "hats", "glasses", "sweaters", "sports" all of which seemed to contribute absolutely nothing to the moral or well-being of staff other than instill in them a fear of not being able to find a suitably "wacky" hat to wear for 30 seconds at the start of a meeting. I've always maintained that "dressing up" is what people who don't have a sense of humor do, instead of humor. Certainly a lot easier than remembering jokes or properly engaging with a humorous story being told, I guess the easy way is invariably the preferred way.
