Just got this slack from our server admin.

Slack: "People can't work when we're down"

GitHub: "Hold my beer"

Slack update notes are by far the funniest out there.

When you are so lazy to make a dark theme so you just add warning.

Welcome to JavaScript where
Number.isInteger(0.9999999999999999) is false and
Number.isInteger(0.99999999999999999) is true

These slack socks are nice, but devRant ones would be nicer

I love the Slack changelogs 😂

oh boi

Slack isn't down. You've been fired.

Shout out to devs who put comments in your code I'm so done with my team rn

Also we have slack for a reason stop texting me to update everyone on changes...

at least not public void I guess..

D E F R A G M E N T I O N

Full Slack 9gag Developer

Let's hope Slack releases this dark theme soon.

So someone invaded my workstation and did this on my Slack Status -.-"

Sending files on WhatsApp inspite of having a slack workspace and git 😑😑😑😑😑

Someone at Microsoft has a sense of humour I see...

In my hunt for the perfect productivity app I came upon something called Freeter.

It is a productivity app that lets me gather what I need for the work I'm working on, and then manage it all in one place.

For me, It's super nice to be able to check tasks in Trello, or communicating in Slack without having to change tabs or open a new browser.

Try it out and tell me what you think

We use emojis to maintain pull request status in a Slack channel

sorry linux <3

Had a client ask me my slack username in slack...

1969:
-what're you doing with that 2KB of RAM?
-sending people to the moon

2017:
-what're you doing with that 1.5GB of RAM?
-running Slack

Watch your git commit messages, you never konw when a webhook might publish the whole thing to Slack...

When the company uses slack, why the project lead want to create a WhatsApp group ??!!?

Did you know that you could only add 23 smileys to a message in Slack? 🤔 Well now you know! 😁

Walking up to my computer, on autopilot i typed my password to unlock it, pressed enter ...aaand realised it was unlocked and I just sent my password in the clients general slack channel.
Quickly changed it to a smiley and pretended it was raining..

Any one else who mistakenly typed a password or other secrets in a slack channel or similar? XD

Just in case you were wondering...

Gotta love witty changelogs

If slack is down for more than 15 minutes you're legally allowed to leave work

Slack channel message this morning:

I work for a company that is 100% remote. Slack just went down. We're doomed, on Halloween of all days.

Anybody using Slack seen the short description under your profile?

Me on Slack:

I was looking for the `busy` status here in slack but there's only `active` and `away`. That's when I realized why this app was called `Slack` in the first place. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Colleague started a slack channel for our team, management wanted nothing to do with it. We used it to work and have a bit of fun.

Some push / drive came form somewhere and now all the managers are on it. Yesterday I was told my screenshot and "snarky comment" are not appropriate for the workplace and to delete my slack message.

My comment was a joke about about a new app the company has to use "to increase efficiency" that broke and wouldn't let me do what I needed. It wasn't offensive, demeaning, sexist to anyone or even contain any bad language.

How petty and childish to be monitoring a private channel making sure everything is positive. We all joked that from now on our meme's must be about how awesome the company is and how much time we are saving on a daily basis.

God forbid we're allowed to speak honestly and openly or have a bit of fun.

!rant

Really happy about this one! I cannot go into details yet but hopefully will write a blogpost about it when I may disclose it :)

why is it so hard to convince people to start using slack chat and giving up sending internal emails?

Slack: A tool for teams to collaborate and work efficiently

Instead

Slack: A way to share memes at work

Advice... Don't open slack at work 😂

Not an office prank, but when I was in high school we had some public computers and I switched some shortcuts for chrome and internet explorer, so when you clicked chrome, something that should not be called a browser would open.
And than I got the brilliant idea: I wrote a script camuflagged as a chrome icon that would launch 100 internet explorers. Legend says that people are still raging to this day.

Why is this website using the slack loading indicator!??

We have a group slack chat for my class which was intended to be a space for asking questions about assignments and getting help from your peers. Instead it has become a dick measuring contest in there where guys who know very little can act all high and mighty about their (plain wrong, in some instances) facts they're distributing without care. It pisses me off so much seeing how toxic it has become in there. It's the same 5 guys using it to bully each other and God forbid anyone else asks a question, they'll be mocked for not being confident handing in a solution they aren't sure is right. Why can't people treat each other with respect? We're in school to LEARN. Not impress other students with how much (read: little) we know. GJ, guys. You created a smaller version of stack overflow.

Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE the stability of slack (and electron apps in general)?

Got notified of a new message in slack, clicked the channel and this is what I see, even after a restart. No content or UI controls of any kind are being rendered. No workspaces, no loading spinners, no errors, no warnings ... just nothing.

I don't give a fuck about your integrations, apps, giphy, video calls, search, threading ... I just want to read text.

Piece of fucking shit

"How My Startup Failed Because My Developers Spent All Day Using Giphy Reactions On Slack" - An honest Medium post no-one has written.

*Copies url from bitbucket*
*Switch to Slack on macOS*
*Presses command + v*
Slack: whaaaaaaaaaat :O I'm gonna freeze for few moments to understand what the fuck you just asked me to do

meanwhile in Kotlin slack chat! awesome news

Moved from Slack to Microsoft Teams at work. Teams UI is horrible. Doesn't use system notifications it has its own crappy popups. (Running the Linux Client) I hate everything about it.

Everyone should just go back to using IRC.

Okay, this is me panicking. We're switching to Microsoft Teams at work. This means that I will have to cut the Slack and switch to a fucking Microsoft solution for chat. Am I supposed to be worried?

Why is there no dark theme for Slack?

OMG. I accidentally click into my own name on the Slack DM list, and what wonderful resource did I just find? HOW LONG have I been ignoRANT of this wonderful repo for my fave .gif contributions to project channels???!?!?!?

Error: "Slack prevented your Mac from updating last night."

Good job Slack. You can take the rest of the day off.

So my company finally decided to make the shift from using irc for internal chats to Slack.

After a month of patiently waiting for my team to make the shift, I went ahead asked one of my (young) fellow teammate why he hasn't shifted to Slack yet. His reply:
"What's Slack?"

Time for another update on our slack bot, this time i am armed with a demo...

Finally got my avatar. Setting it as my profile pic for Github, slack, Jira.

Thanks @dfox

When you have snacks on your slack.

Manager: Why do you need that new $6000 Mac?
Me:

Am I doing it wrong?

A normal day in slack.

EffuseJS, An opensource Chat Platform better than Slack, Rocket.Chat.

Now you have an app for talking to yourself too !!! Thanks Slack

Anybody uses Slack at work
My whole company freaked out today because Slack servers were down
It was hilarious 😂

Case dismissed 😂

My company just announced we are leaving Slack for Google Chat because it is a "superior" (and cheaper) tool.

FML

When someone comes to your desk and asks "did you get my slack message".... Which they sent 23 seconds ago 😒

UGH the Slack dark theme hack broke with the newest version of Slack. apparently the Slack devs have had a dark theme "on the to-do list" for over 2 years. COME THE FUCK ON SLACK, ITS A CSS FILE.

I've been training a client for a few months now to not use Slack for sharing passwords and other secure materials.

I really thought I had made great progress. I even had him using a password manager. Then out of nowhere he sends the wildcard SSL key pair to me and a handful of other devs in a Slack thread.

At least we aren't storing important information like medical records. Oh wait, that's exactly what we're doing.

The Slack API is as pleasant as crabs from a street hooker

and slack ban us too .... :((((

haha you had me there for a moment, slack ;)

*team worried about Slack conversations being tracked in the company*
Solution: Shared text file over network. Edit and save it for private communication. Best idea ever?

That's what i call "perfect timing"

Friend sent me this on slack the other day. 🤣

Forget about coffee, nothing wake you up faster than a colleague mentioning your name in the slack channel where the stderr of the app writes.

I hate Skype for Business with a passion. It's the most garbage useless chat program imaginable. It can barely send basic text chats without throwing an error, and it can almost never send an image without the upload failing. The fact that it can't even save conversation history for each of your chats within Skype is ridiculous -- it fucking saves the conversation as an email draft in Outlook. Come on Microsoft, why do I have to open a completely separate program to view conversation history?! Skype conversation history should be saved IN SKYPE! Fucking AIM was able to save conversation history. I've tried multiple times to get the company to move to Slack or Teams, and for some reason they think that Skype is a good program and they ignore the fact that it's completely useless. It's 2019, why are we using a program that's built like it's 2009? I swear they haven't updated Skype at all in the last decade

I finaly managed to make a dark mode on slack desktop app! Still has some bugs (like scrollbar being white) but works well enough for me. If anyone is interested tell me in the comments 🙂

How i did it (Linux paths but should be the same process for Windows):

You can execute scripts in /usr/lib/slack/resources/app.asar.unpacked/src/static/index.js

Using that i figgured out that slack desktop is basically an actual webview to their website and some os hooks.

To edit the contents of the webview you can call `document.getElementsByClassName('WebViewContext')[0].executeJavaScript("alert(1)")`

Then i just simply packaged up some custom css to be loaded with JS.

Quite simple actually.

Using this method you can create all kinds of plugins for slack, so go wild!

When somebody asks you what IRC is and the only way you can explain it is 'It's like Slack, but before Slack.'

I hate the dumbass people that send on slack: "good morning", "good afternoon" or "how are you?" and do not say anything until I reply. If you do this FUCK YOU!! Just ask the fucking question. Now I just ignore everybody until the question is made

Created a zip file with Linux Mint Archive Manager ... Tried to send it to a collegue via Slack ...

This is response I got from my ex tech lead in a company that I left six months ago..

Btw account is registered on my private email and has admin access to Slack full of confidential files.

Don't even know why I worked there..

Slack, my boss and I:
Me: Lucky I left when I did, I'll get through that fix when I'm less 🤢
Boss: Don't worry, take care of Harold now
Boss: If that's what we're calling the parasite

I recently found out I have a parasite, which I brought from India, living in my intestine. I'm on antibiotics. We're three devs at a startup running two products and on a shoestring... so Harold and I get our assets to office.

When you're forever allone

Slack finally have dark mode for desktop! 🎉

"Software and cathedrals are much the same – first we build them, then we pray."

Yup, that's how we work ^_^

So who else is on Mac and not updating Slack to retain the old good logo? LOL 😂

Important Announcement:

The word 'slack' must not be used as a verb.
For e.g.:

Person : Can you please slack me?
Me : Ummm ok, I will send you on slack...

Avoid those awkward moments. Stay alert!

I accidentally chat this on our general channel on Slack.

"I've noticed you can tell how much a British person likes you based on the amount of insults they give you."

The problem is, minute has passed. How I wish I have the time machine.

Slack is scared as hell about Microsoft Teams that is targeted to enterprise customers.

Did you hear about the full page newspapar ad they did?... Passive aggressive move by slack

When developers are given the freedom of expression 😂😂

Finally convinced manager we need to use slack and it is down.

Co-employee in Slack: Let's get this bread

*1 hour later*

That guy: Bread has been acquired

Meanwhile me: *Forgot to eat breakfast and read the sentence wrong*

God I wish I was that guy

Apparently...

Did this on friday. Now tomorrow is monday.😑

So happy to be making this last post

Devrant slack theme 😀

Slack being funny when you start a conversation with yourself...

So I work for an ISP in the customer support center and we use slack for communication... As you can tell by my starred channels; we do plenty of work...

(Yes, potato is dedicated to nothing but potato)

Friggin Slack...

I dread the day that Slack has a “... has read this message 2 seconds ago” feature. Please Slack, continue letting me pretend I haven’t seen that message that I don’t want to reply to.

I like this platform... it's like Twitter and Slack hooked up for a night.

When you accidentally type "git diff" in slack.

Slack notification in the #booking channel - Whenever our user orders something. 🎉 🔔

I try to convince my boss to choose Slack and not Microsoft teams.
What's your opinion on these apps ?

You know you've grown up when you switch from Discord to Slack

When you have to stay awake at nights just to support more timezones and chat..:/

So after the original idea getting scraped during a hackathon this week, we created a slack bot to fetch most relevant answers from StackOverflow using user's input. All the user had to do was input few words and the bot handled all typos, links etc and returned the link as well as the most upvoted or the accepted amswer after scraping it from the website.
The average time to find an answer was around 2 seconds, and we also told that we're planning to use flask to deploy a web application for the same.
After the presentation, one of the judge-guys called me and told me that "It isn't good enough, will not be used widely" and "Its similar to Quora".
Never ever have I wanted to punch a son of a bitch in the balls ever.

I haven't ranted since I joined my current job back in late 2018 because I've been in absolute bliss, extremely happy and feeling in the right place.

...And now here I am: due to some corporate shit we had to migrate from Slack to Teams and man TEAMS IS A SHIT.

*Writes Slack message*
*Sends*
*Notices mistake*
*Goes to edit*
*Accidentally pins message*
*Goes to edit*
*Accidentally deletes*

*Gives up on life*

Slack is cool and all... But do we really have to have an "account per team" ? Damn I cringed so hard when I was setting up two-factor authentication and realized it was this way... Wtf...

We decide to joke around with building stuff

We happen to name our Scaleway Server "Chitoge"

shit went down from there

I'm so fed up with this shit

Most productive morning in months.. realized both my email client and slack were closed

Me: Ugh. I always forget to change my Slack status before leaving my computer. I wish it would just update when I locked my computer. And maybe cleared the status/set me back to active when I unlocked my computer.
*realization that I’m a programmer now*

——
A week later:
... it throws a nilError exception on every running of the Automator action to the stderr file it’s configured with, but it does what I programmed it to do. What? Why? What have I done?

1:15pm - When you're done replying to email, skype, slack, linkedin, and voice messages... :/

My boss and I, with a normal morning greeting in slack

Me: morning boss, how are you?

Boss: very good and you?

Me: marvelous. hey boss, do you have a secret entry to your office? I didn't see you coming

Boss: hahaha, front door :| . And I greeted everyone too

Me: :( sorry

Boss: Microsleep 😂

Me: 😎 nope, extreme concentration

Me: it's a new development methodology, born from extreme programming

Boss: 😶

Why? 😑😑

Rocket.chat

Free and Open Source Alternative to the Fu*king Slack!

Can someone explain some of my colleagues that THEY DON'T FUCKING NEED A DIFFERENT SLACK TEAM FOR EVERYTHING!

Want to have some random talk? Let's create a new Slack team
Want to add notifications from Git? Let's create a new Slack team
Want to try some new bot they found? Let's create another fucking Slack team

Leave developers in a room long enough and they'll drop verbal communication in favour of irc/slack/discord

Fuck-a-doodle-do Fuck Fuck Fuck what a fucking dipshit. Scared the god damn shit out of me.

So I am deep in code, listening to my music pounding out some code and Drupal configurations and I feel a shadowy draft over my right side like someone is watching me.

I work with a guy that will not for the fucking life of me use Slack to send me a message when I have my headphones on or at all for that matter.

He gets up and walks to my cubicle and just stares with a goofy fucking grin on his face. You know the one. LIke a retarded fucking dog eating shit out of a wire brush. Yeah that's the grin. Silently derping with his fucking derp ass Derp McDerpington face waiting on you to turn around an notice him there instead of knocking on the cubicle wall or waving to get your attention.

The FUCK dude? CreepyPasta

How to slack during work like a pro? (if you are a unity developer)

1- make a full screen youtube player inside Unity.
2- fill most of the screen with panels (debug, file browser... etc)
3- watch a video about overwatch or something.

enjoy!!

1. Coding
2. Answering everything said on Slack

Pick One.

Discord or Slack? 🤔

Little story, about how i get things fucked up.
I've been working for two nights on some project, and we have notifications in slack about new commits, and i've been working for myself, not pulling any commits for this time, cause no notifications 've been received, and then when i've tried to commit&push i've realized that there is 14 commits before me, and someone just accidentally turned off notifications :C

Why do I find devrant more interesting than slack?

How the fuck can Slack use more than 2GB of RAM running inside of the fucking browser? wow

Wtf, just heard on the news about the IPO of Slack, it now has a company worth of 25 billion dollars. I always thought of Slack as a normal startup that is kinda successful, but 25 billion is unbelievable.

Slack seems to be down. Lets just cut some slack.

Didn't go to class on Friday cause some asshole broke into my car. Checked slack for my homework over the weekend before bed and...nothing.

Check slack 2 hours ago... huge project due in 7 hours... wtf slack thanks for no notification and updating my messages late as fuck...

Time to brew some coffee I guess.

I love a number of the little slack "all clean" icons when you catch up on threads. They're adorable. My personal favorite is the floptopus.

Anyone else have fave examples of adorable, ideally platform mascot-related pieces of task-accomplishment-reward-bait (octocat, go gopher, etc etc?

It's a rant bc fuck anyone who's too cool for cute shit :p

Came home from work.
Turned on pc to start a small project because I got an idea I liked.
Picked my music for programming.
Opened eclipse -> new project -> maven project
UI asks for group and archetype Id. Can't think of a nice name right away
"Let's browse devRant for one or two posts"
That was at least 40 minutes ago. Still browsing.

Since I started working it is really hard for me to do any private projects. But I really want to.

Any suggestions?

Slack crashing the Intel Display Driver every 5 minutes.

This is fine.

drives me crazy when people send log or code snippets in slack and don't create a code snippet and send through as a plain message.

I'll just leave this little gem here shall I....

Just shared devRant on our work slack group

Someone who spends a lot of time chatting in slack is a slacker

Changelog slack

Slack is the second most memory hungry application on my laptop. Guess the first one?

Slack markdown is different than Discord markdown >:(

Slack's latest update just broke the darkify hack. It's 2019, right? It is unbelievable that there is no built-in dark mode for Linux, Mac, or even windows. I mean, they are aware of dark mode. It is available on mobile without trouble. Get it together, slack!

Today's my company's official final day with Slack.

Starting tomorrow it's nothing but the "superior" Google Chat. I will have no choice but to join the others who have already migrated over.

FML

It also mean I won't have any access to messaging outside the office because I don't want to accept the security certs on my phone.

My react developer tool popped up to tell me that my company slack is using the development build of react not fit for production...

When you have to lock down #general in #slack because people cant be responsible.

Then get stuck making #bs-general and other #bs prefixed channels so that people know if they join them they will be annoyed.

I hate when one of my cw starts to flood the chat, especially the #general. It goes like:

CW: hey
CW: anyone have a pendrive
CW: ?

Me: I have one (and tells him where he can find on my desk)
Another CW: I have one too

CW: thanks, I'll get the one from <Another CW>
CW: hahahahahaha

You don't need to write a whole thesis in a single message, but at least you should guarantee that each message have some meaningful information, not just "hey", "?" and "hahaha"

Slack is not MSN.

Who should and when it would be a good time to tell him this is a waste of attention?

sending memes on Slack

Slacked...

Been teaching for this place a while. Still have yet to be paid or properly onboarded. Needless to say, I've emailed them a half dozen times already about it. And including colleagues, have talked to probably ten different people. Monday morning and all of next week until they reply. I will be @channel-ing their primary slack channel until this is resolved. Just curious how much faster devRant will get back to me before these douchebags? <3

Seriously I think the Slack apps are really among the worst I have ever had to use. That is both on mobile (iOS) and desktop (Mac). It’s super slow thanks to Electron Desktop and super buggy on mobile. Connection Speed is really slow as well.

I just hate it.

When the colleague that you're arguing with on a slack channel is an administrator. He has the power to delete anything you post that makes him look like a dick.

I will not submit to this reign of tyranny!

Notifications are not being sent from github to slack. Ok. Looks like that legacy slack github integration that has been telling us its no longer supported for months has finally been deactivated.

Fine. I'll cave and upgrade all 45 of our repos to the new integration.

Thousands of clicks later, finally done.

*but wait*

"Notifications still don't work?"

That's when I saw this notice on github.

FML I want my hour back.

Holy meta info, Batman!

1969:
-what're you doing with that 2KB of RAM?
-sending people to the moon

2017:
-what're you doing with that 1.5GB of RAM?
-running Slack

Slack has to be joking. I just wanted to use it in my browser, because their beautiful and definitely not electron based app takes 600MB RAM. Fuck you Slack!

A watched slack channel never gets replied to.

When you open slack and keep trying to ++ people's messages :/

Slack threads are plain shit.

In january this year i convinced my whole team to switch from Skype to Stride. And now Stride announced that they are teaming up with Slack... I am going to look like complete idiot because we have to switch once again ... 😥

Switched from Skype to Slack for internal team communication...
Wish we could use devRant someday.. 💬

Slack.

Slack or Matrix/Riot.im and why?

Just started using Slack in the office. Combined with the BitBucket plugin it’s awesome!

Don't know if i'm alone or not.. so i'm gonna leak my secret that my rubber ducky is actually a slack channel i made in my company's slack

One of the top reasons why I decided to work for a different company is that they use Slack.

I wonder y slack hates upper case alphabets wanted to give my username in camelCase

Holy crap! Slack just changed their logo.

Needed a code review urgently. As I’m the only mobile dev in my team I posted my request in a mobile group channel on Slack asking for someone to take a look. I used @here to notify everyone that’s currently online and I got slammed for using @here in the channel because people got a bloody notification. Grow a pair and stop being a fucking snowflakes. This is a company Slack channel and I am asking you to take a look at company critical PR why wouldn’t I use @here

So, I think I have to close slack

Which is a good slack alternative?

-Simple.
-Channels.
-Mobile App.

Reading in a while for a slackbot creation tutorial. Then suddenly, a random note appears:

"Be sure to use version 0.3.0 of slackbots as newer version are not perfectly compatible with what's illustrated in this tutorial."

THEN UPDATE YOUR TUTORIAL!

DO NOT! WASTE MY TIME!

So, as you may be aware, I work as solo dev for small company. There is easly enough work for team, but I digress..

So, they wanted to stay updated whats progress on some projects. We use slack. I use git. I set up account for them so they can come into my git and controll if issues are solved, etc. I wont get started about any dev ever beeing judged by how much code is outputted, beyond scope of this.

So they started bitching about that git is too technical and too complicated and shit. They made bizzare bullshit google excel (not even in polish) and stupidass form to "audit issues". Hmm.. wtf. I just didnt use it becouse it was slowing me down and was just frustrating, how one can replace git + issue tracker with fucking spreadsheet?!

Okay, so having that aside, I complained about that so they were like "okay, so you want to use git and we want to be notified. whats your solution" me "oh, you want to stay notified, thats easy, I can plug my git into slack"

Now our slack is spammed to oblivion with git notifications.

Now they are annoyed that they are too notified. (Yes I consulted with them what will be plugged into slack)

Oh well

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Has any of you worked with someone claiming he's a "Senior Software Engineer" but he does not know what he's doing? I'm not saying I'm a very good developer myself but I know how to differentiate a good code from a garbage code and architecture. It's really becoming a pain in the ass...

[slack]: here's a nice workspace name. Let's take it.

Workspace started to be unusable (constant refresh). Ticket sent.

[us]: We should delete it and create it again.

Few minutes later - workspace name unavailable. Ticket sent.

(48h later)
[slack]: my precious!!!

We're using Slack for team communication.

After a lot of crappy slack apps I installed the snippetsbot today.

It's just great. Simple but really efficient. I love that damn little thing.

Do you have a listing of the devRant open source projects - devRant slack bot, analyzer...?
Thanks

Microsoft Teams is not like Slack the way I thought it was.

Recently we created a Slack team with co-workers and our boss. Everybody was shocked when we saw his username. It is "armageddon". Like a fucking gamer child.

Ready for Slackforce.

Am I the only one who thinks that Slack is so terribly expensive for a small company?

I'd like less gap between "free" and 8$/month/user...

I'm always thinking people are telling me to "sock it to me" when they've actually said "Slack it to me."

Man slack is so evil and shit. They wont let you access conversion history without paid plan.WTF?!! That is so evil!

I hope they rot and die in hell. Fuck slack.

is soo cool when people is up to joke around with my bad jokes.

-- Talking with a coworker about a new button in a results table --

dude: hey jhon, I'll name the button 'SHOW RESULTS' and the endpoint will be named that too. cuz there is a 'SHOW STATS' already

me: dunno, use something more meaningful, this is about unparsed results, right? so what about...

me: unparsed results ? unparsed stats ?

me: another one bites the dust? show must go on?

me: innuendo?

me: pick one 8D . But I think innuendo is pretty descriptive

dude: ok

me: seriously, 'show unparsed stats'

dude: got it

-- then the dude sends me the screenshot --

me: LOL, 8D

me: you got my respect man (_ _)

Boss uses @here in Slack channel, waits 5 seconds then tags me and another dev. Not sure he understands how @here works.

So talking about discovering Drone CI turned into existential crisis

what a way to start 2020

Props to slack for this. This is awesome!

When slack is down for 3 hours, but ur boss facetimes u and ses we need to review CVS and then u need to stop playing euro truck simulator and start working 🙃.

FUN

Worst thing about having internet during your holiday is receiving Slack messages.

Do people honestly expect that I’m gonna help fix their problem while I’m sitting at the pool?

Does it bother you when a co-worker keeps talking on phone all day long and it's not work related? It bothers me.

People that dont use slack threads.
Fuck em.

"Yeah, lets use slack, it is much more organized and will improve structured conversation"

And then they never fuckn use the god damn CORE feature but dump their replies into the channel like monkeys throwing their shit around everywhere except in the place the shits supposed to go.
