It's been brought to my attention that some people think you shouldn't wave at the end of video calls. Those people are incorrect. Zapier was remote before it was cool/mandatory, and they've been using video calls for almost a decade, with everyone in the company agreeing on waving as a way to show appreciation for each other. Waving is not just acceptable but encouraged, as it provides a human touch to the end of video meetings, which can feel abrupt compared to in-person interactions. The author believes that waving is an important way to express gratitude and connection with others, even in a work context, and argues that it's corny and good, rather than rude or uncool. Google put the author in charge of Zoom etiquette, and they're sticking to their guns on this one.
