I was pretty excited I’d finished the first part of a self-assigned project much earlier than anticipated but even more excited when I decided its conclusion should earmark a fresh cup of moka pot coffee! So I unmuted my co-workers, announced my leave, re-muted the phone, and let out a long, loud, high-pitched bilabial trill fueled by my excitement for coffee!
Imagine then my surprise when I was unmuted the entire time, muted the phone to announce my departure, then - with zero context - unmuted the phone for my shrill tribal announcement and nothing else.
Oops.
