The city’s traffic jams are infamous, often leading to innovative ways for people to utilize their time while stuck on the roads. From peeling green peas to attending phone calls, individuals find various ways to make the most of their long wait times.
This particular video showcases a woman multitasking by attending a work meeting while navigating through Bengaluru’s congested roads.
Accompanied by a caption in Tamil that translates to “Work even on the road. What else to do? Instead of looking at the signal, they are looking at me,” the video emphasizes the daily challenges faced by commuters in the city.
In the footage, the woman is seen actively participating in a Zoom call on her smartphone while patiently waiting for the traffic to clear.
A text overlay in the video humorously states, “Work from traffic. Just a normal day in Bengaluru.”
“When you have to balance yourself between running a package and going back home,” added another user.
A third said, “Bro must be working for an IT company as he might be short of clocking 70 hours per week.
This incident is not an isolated one, as similar videos of people working or attending meetings in Bengaluru traffic have circulated on social media before.
One such viral moment featured a man working on his laptop while riding a scooter and participating in a Microsoft Teams call. The caption accompanying the video humorously remarked, “Bengaluru is not for beginners.”
