Representing height on Zoom?

Ok I know this sounds wild but bear with me. We’re still fully remote up here in Canada, but obviously hiring new people regularly. I am usually involved with the onboarding process so I get to meet these new folks via Zoom every week.


Recently, we had an outdoor gathering with all us sales reps and every conversation started with “wow you’re so much taller than I thought!” For reference, I’m 6’4 on a good day.


Question is, what can I do to show my height more on video (outside of holding up yard stick on calls)? I’m already a beacon in the crowd. I hate attention and don’t need more of it.

I don't even know how to answer this. Tall makes you automatically sexy though if that helps 🤷‍♀️

Call me what you want, just sign the damn contract
Oh no, you’re tall! What a burden. I would just slip it into conversation so you’re not surprising people if it bothers you.

No one cares about how tall you are or what you look like. However, looking to you for advice and best practices.

I don’t understand why you need them to know that you are tall? Seems weird. 

Weird flex.

Have you asked them why they assume you wouldn't be tall? Are you of a more slender build? What a weird comment to make to someone upon meeting them but like @CuriousFox said, maybe they're just nervous because they're thinking NSFW thoughts about you now.
