This reporter was caught rotten daydreaming during a live broadcast

Her reaction is everything.

We can all be guilty of daydreaming while on the job, but lucky for us no one usually sees it, especially not the entire country. For this new reader, that's exactly what happened her. During an external broadcast of the news her mind began to wander, so when the show cut back to her in studio, she got an almighty fright. The whole thing was caught live and, naturally, social media was loving it.

That feeling when you're caught daydreaming at work :) (via @UmmRKSZ ) #mediawatch pic.twitter.com/lRkTbpygfo

@ABCmediawatch @UmmRKSZ The news story couldn't have been anywhere near as exciting or entertaining as her surprised reaction.
