Almost everyone has moved to the digital medium since the COVID-19 pandemic rocked the world, from educational institutions to corporate headquarters. Applications like Zoom meetings, Google Meet, and Skype have become a guide for students and employees as new technology advances. While the work-from-home culture made life easier for many of us during the COVID-19 pandemic, it also gave us the opportunity to create memories and recount stories. Several recordings of goof ups during online talks have been published by netizens over the previous year, ranging from unexpected appearances of family members during Zoom calls to sheer technological faults. The most recent addition to the list is Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma’s tweet.
Sharma blogged about his seven-hour Zoom encounter on the microblogging site on September 13th. “Just finished my probably the longest Zoom call. 7 hours 45 mins, Sharma penned an article.” Now, the Paytm CEO’s most recent message has sparked a firestorm on the internet, with netizens debating the CEO’s patience.

The post has attracted the attention of over 3900 social media users since it was shared. Some internet users praised the Paytm CEO’s work ethic, while others were perplexed as to “whom he was talking with for more than seven hours.” As one user put it, “With whom? Still, you didn’t break my record. I used to talk to my GF for 10 hours continuously.” Another social media user asked, “What’s the first word/thought that comes to mind following this marathon?”
