oh you’re forcing me to use a boomerfied ripoff discord app with dangerously loud default volume settings? great then i’m gonna respond to every question on that call with a comically loud snoring sound. absolutely wild that this is accepted as “industry standard”
mircoSHit can eat my ass and hole and hair
Anyone that likes Teams is objectively a bad person.
eat my ass, hole and hairGnarly but fair.Agreed tho, the explosion of sketchy skype and discord clones… and businesses’ enthusiasm towards them… is just undignified.
(edited to a sincerepost because I smoked weed and can’t shake the feeling my earlier post’s tone is ambiguously creepy sounding. apologies, comrade(s)! not gonna delete it tho I wasn’t being that awkward)
I don’t know a single slack or discord clone that is sketchier than slack or discord, and especially don’t know one sketchier than msteams.
your conversations will be truncated and you will like it
Teams may suck but it’s a lot better than Skype which used to be the standard
i’m currently trying to reactivate an old work account, being sent back-and-forth between teams and authenticator, phone call verification always fails the first time and i apparently need authenticator to log into authenticator, then it tells me i must delete the old account and re-add it and when i finally got in another pop-up telling me to re-install i can’t close.
i couldn’t even program such a dumpster fire if i tried.
miKKKro$$oft can burn in hell
Holy fuck hate teams. It’s called email if you wanted to say something to me, it doesn’t need to be a public social thing stored in the damed cloud ready to be hacked. The whole Microsoft 365 project is a massive risk to any organization on board with it. It all runs sloooooow AF too.
It is one of the bulkiest pieces of ineffective Frankenstein apps I’ve ever had the displeasure of using. Oh you don’t like it? Well here’s a Microsoft Live! ID. Oh you need to “login” to this website function now instead of just visiting it for information. Oh your username is the same as someone half way across the world in Denmark. So you have to type it the long way with your org and then enter a password.
Just want to bash my head at this shit live virus malware service corporate shit.
STOP TRYING TO MAKE ME “SOCIAL” AT MY SOLITARY JOB!i like teams because you can start a meeting with just yourself in it, then set your status to active manually and it never goes to “away” and your computer never goes to sleep

This is the only humane option. I guess I’m privileged at Langley to only need to worry about results.
I have projects that require that I log hours to justify why they’re getting charged what they are, adrenochrome bill, etc. So if I show up late, take a long lunch, or do laundry in the middle of the day it’s kosher because what do they care? The project has a deadline and we’re going to meet it at a certain budget. The trade off is a responsibility for when time gates happen, especially if I missed something I could have seen, especially if I missed it by doing laundry or talking to another client.
Looking busy was the first thing I ever hated in an office. I hated it as much as wishing the clock would hurry up. Squeezing labor out doesn’t even seem like the most efficient use of people. If you guaranteed them the 40hr salary, had clear expectations for the minimum and gave some agency to think about how to make it awesome, you probably get more focused work on every project. They’d get bored and organize, put on music while separating trash and recyclables, suggest a compost bin, and make macros to solve busy work. They’d chill on easy weeks and have the energy and motivation to lock in on hard weeks.
The low tech version of this is placing a metal spoon on the trackpad. Always green.
can’t believe i copied some excel macro that moved my selected cell up and down every second when i could have just done this
Thank you, might try this if my current method gets noticed.
