*Crickets chirping*
Office meetings can be a source of stress and tension. The situation can be amplified by two people screaming at each other from across the meeting table. This person’s coworker thought it’d be a good idea to diffuse the situation with a knock-knock joke.
Amateur comedians need to learn the importance of reading the room before rattling off jokes. This guy thought it’d be a good idea to tell a joke right after a particularly nasty screaming match. His “knock knock” was met with silence and angry glares from around the room. Nice going, random coworker. Here’s a tip: if you know someone has a short temper, sit next to them during a meeting. They’re less likely to scream at you if you’re within punching range of each other.
