3:48

Yeah. No, I agree with what you're saying.

3:51

A lot of the meetings that I have had recently have been

with people in different time zones in different countries.

4:00

So, definitely then a call is better

4:05

because it's the best way to speak

4:08

without having to go to different countries.

4:12

But I agree, I think it's nice to be able to see body language better

4:20

in a face-to-face meeting,

but meetings on calls now are so normal that there's not loads of difference.

4:30

It is also really nice to be able to take calls in your own house.

4:35

So, working from home can be really nice because you can have your snacks

4:40

and drinks nearby.

4:42
