Roger Farrelly suffers company-wide Zoom blowout after forgetting cameras exist

In what can only be described as a devastating day for workplace professionalism, veteran radio broadcaster Roger Farrelly has accidentally treated more than 1,000 of his colleagues to an intimate look at his bedroom, his multiple chins, and his complete inability to operate modern technology.

The 34-year radio veteran, who has just one month remaining at The Rock, was attending an important company-wide Zoom meeting when he made the catastrophic mistake of leaving his camera on.

While hundreds of employees across New Zealand and Australia tuned in to hear from the company's new owners, Farrelly, 57, was tucked up in bed, blissfully unaware he was providing the meeting's main entertainment.

Sources close to the incident, otherwise known as literally everyone in the office, have confirmed the camera angle was nothing short of horrific.

One particularly confronting image reportedly showed Farrelly lying motionless beneath his duvet, resembling a man whose family had gathered to pay their final respects. Another captured the broadcaster desperately fumbling with his phone in an attempt to locate the elusive 'camera off' button.

Despite decades of experience in the broadcasting industry, Farrelly appeared unfamiliar with the concept of being filmed.

Speaking on The Morning Rumble the following morning (this morning), Farrelly admitted he had downloaded the Zoom app specifically for the meeting and simply pressed the button to join.

At one point, he reportedly questioned whether the face appearing on his screen was visible to anyone other than himself.

Unfortunately for Farrelly, the answer was yes.

Rather than alert their colleague to the unfolding disaster, several MediaWorks employees made the executive decision to document the incident and distribute photographic evidence amongst themselves.

A group chat was reportedly established for this purpose, with Farrelly being the only person deliberately excluded.

The situation escalated further when his Morning Rumble colleagues staged a full-scale intervention live on air, presenting the evidence to an increasingly distressed Farrelly.

Co-host Bryce Casey was left struggling to breathe through laughter, while the rest of the team questioned how a man who has spent more than three decades working in broadcasting could be so spectacularly defeated by a mobile phone.

Farrelly, who had spent the previous evening wondering whether he'd managed to get away with the incident, was informed that absolutely nobody had forgotten.

The broadcaster briefly considered bringing forward his departure from The Rock, declaring, "I'll just leave."

With his final month at the station now underway, colleagues remain concerned about what further technological disasters Farrelly could inflict upon the business before his departure.

The Rock understands Farrelly is expected to take up a new role at sibling station The Sound in January, where his ability to operate a webcam is unlikely to be a prerequisite for employment.

At the time of publication, Farrelly's camera is believed to have been successfully switched off.

However, this has not been independently verified.
