Lizet Ocampo had an important online meeting with her staff when, by accident, she pressed something and transformed her head into a potato. Her makeover was a result of a Snapchat filter. That is not the funny part, however.
Lizet had no idea how to turn off the filter when talking to her employees, and she remained that way at the conference. On Twitter, one of her staff members posted the comical moment.

The good news is that my boss, Lizet Ocampo, will not be sacking me tomorrow. We hashed it all out tonight and our team is still laughing with you all. STAY PLANTED AT HOME & welcome my potato boss @mlizetocampo to the twitterverse @billieeilish https://t.co/YD3r6ShuMg https://t.co/LoKHCU6h1E

Fortunately, Rach’s boss had a good sense of humor, so she didn’t take her post as an offense.
Lizet Ocampo took the joke, and she also liked the part of the Potato Manager. She retweeted Rach’s message, adding a funny comment:
“I yam potato boss. You should see me in a crown, right @billieeilish? I yam glad this is making folks laugh at this time. Please stay planted at home and safe! For more needed laughs, follow my favorite comedian @cristela9. Potate out.”
