Working from home brings big challenges, and one of them is the temptation to work on your shorts, since video meetings only show your upper half. Now, a journalist has become an internet sensation after appearing on the air during “Good Morning America” in a formal shirt and suit, but no pants.
A B C Reporter Will Reeve appeared on the show in his shorts clearly visible due to the camera angle. The journalist only found out about his mistake after people started sharing screenshots of the segment on Twitter and Instagram.

Reeve was on the show to talk about pharmacies that use drones to deliver prescription drugs to people in a Florida retirement village. Her wardrobe choice was not initially revealed thanks to the on-screen graphics, but when they pulled out, the journalist’s decision to skip wearing pants was revealed.
Watch the moment here:
When the photos of him began circulating on the Internet, Reeves assured people that he was wearing his shorts.
“I will not be hired as a camera operator any time soon,” he replied to a tweet.
“I HAVE ARRIVED … in the most mortifying way possible,” Reeve joked after his photos went viral online. He went on to explain that he had started preparing for “a post-GMA workout too soon,” and is now reconsidering his morning routine.

“Any clothing suggestions from (online commentators) who wear a belt, pants and shoes during their work-at-home video calls are welcome,” he tweeted. “Now back to work. Wearing pants. “

Many joked on social media about how they found themselves in similar situations while working from home.
The ABC News reporter is the son of the late actor Christopher Reeve, best known for playing Superman in a series of movies, and many drew parallels with the superhero to cheer him up.

At least he mocked himself. Tangerine Man reportedly insisted that he was wearing a full suit and the media tweaked the image in boxers to make it look bad.
