So, you recently moved into a new office space, and it's not yet fully operational. And that's why you have historically worked from home on the reg? Daxstradamus.

The company I work for just recently moved into what is technically my office.  A very nice, newly renovated space, and I keep getting asked when I'm going to start working at the office again . . . I'm not going to make an occasional appearance until said issues mentioned are fixed.    Sweet video conferencing room(s) though.

I just moved offices too. :Wha:

But there were some video conferencing issues at first so probably different than yours.

When you send someone an email and then walk past their desk later and see them pasting it into Google translate.

I'll be the first to admit I'm in the midst of a pretty big systems issue regarding legacy system to new platform transference, and the fact that legacy companies did things that were not well documented.

But a 26 person email chain across 5 departments and let's see here . . . . 26 emails later, still not fixed.

Does anyone use slack? my company is way into it

I get a big kick out of people on slack who are like real sticklers for rules. Like "PLEASE MOVE THIS CONVERSATION TO THE OTHER SLACK CHANNEL".

Or there's one channel that is specifically for software help, and people will be like "@here who can help me with this?" and people will get super pissed and be like "DON'T USE NOTIFICATIONS IN THIS CHANNEL, CONTACT THE RIGHT PERSON DIRECTLY" when no one knows who they're supposed to contact directly. great stuff.

I'm taking over a client from a guy I work with because he was unresponsive.  I emailed him back and forth and found it odd that he didn't have an email signature.  I asked him about it and he said that nobody will be able to find him unresponsive anymore because they won't know how to get ahold of him.

I may not say it but I think that a lot when people keep a conversation going that should be moved to another channel.

We use slack at both places I work on campus. Get admin privileges and you can do what ever the hell you want. I imported the flush emoji from goEMAW into it. You can even block others from starting convos within seconds of there last post.

I got a second client from the guy due to unresponsiveness.  His email signature strategy does not seem to be working.
