I hate it, I've never liked "messaging" apps in the work environment. Call me or send me an email. Don't make me back-and-forth typing where it could be resolved in 2 minutes on the phone.

I also kill-list the ability to @ someones name in emails, just send the damn email to me.

:stupid:

Just started "using" it here last week. Was told "the bulk of communication goes through Teams". We have like 8 "teams" I am in, every question I have asked has gone unanswered and resulted in an email exchange.
Sounds like it's working! :p

Yeah Skype is simple and it works. And shit, if the other person's status is "jonkranked is typing..." for 5 minutes, that's when you pull the plug and hit that call button.

But with Teams, holy shit, where does it all go and where is the organization? It's just adding another layer of confusion onto Sharepoint and creating a messy dumping grounds for people to do shit in.

SharePoint, where information goes to get lost.

There is a wiki and a "files" location in one of my "rooms". It's awful.

There is a sharepoint app you can add to teams. I wonder if you can add the sharepoint library used by your Teams thing and loop it into itself. Maybe that'll break it for good.

Also related, not even shitting, I just got an email from Microsoft for a feedback survey. :tinfoil::tinfoil::tinfoil::tinfoil::tinfoil:

I hate Microsoft Teams. The fuck is the point of it?
It does give us shared drive capability between institutions, like OneDrive but not just at your shop. But so awkward.

That looks delicious, even accounting for me not having eaten in 44.25 hours. That reminds me that some day I should go back to the local churrascaria when fasted, and eat a ton of their meat. Mmmmm

damn. almost 2 days?
Me & the lady are going veggie for the week & I honestly think a veggie diet is harder than fasting. You can eat but you never feel full. When I fast, after a certain point I am not hungry.

Going to go to 72 hours this one just arbitrarily. My longest was a few weeks ago, at 98 hours. 4 days and 2 hours more yet.

I'm with you on the not feeling full with just veggies bit. My advice would be to FTS and eat some meat.

I recall some Margarita shot blocks also saving you after 2/3 of a whole burrito.

Maybe you should save some of that shuttle banana for later in the ride? :D

Had one of the best road rides of the season today, despite hitting the asphalt at over 25mph on a hairpin turn with gravel on it. Got up, fixed my chain, and still got my third fastest time on that segment. Came home to a bonus, the bike I ordered that the rep said wouldn’t be available until March shipped today. Most excellent!

i suggest you seek out promised land chocolate milk.....
My colon is very much the fraction of Jew I am. I would be bloated & have stinky farts for 48 hours with just 8oz. I would love a banana milk shake from sonic and may be what I request on my death bed because it would literally kill me. :dead:

Ive noticed a difference (positive) in some GI issues (until I ate tofu fuck that). I think I am gonna re-introduce fish this weekend with a big ol' poke bowl.
