    As someone who had to struggle in a meeting because I’d never shared my screen in Teams before and they put it in some weird place, I feel attacked

      Microsoft: “Here, have some shitty arcane dysfunctional software.”

      Me: “Damn, this is hard to use.”

      IT Guy: “Damn, I can’t believe you get paid to work here.”

      Also IT Guy: low whisper “Fuck, they moved the button again. This is going to take me a minute.”

        Corporate crapware changing the layout every 3 months and “streamlining the UI” is by far my biggest annoyance.

        The amount of people who spend 0.12 seconds trying to figure shit out before throwing their hands up and saying “this is impossible, I can’t find it” is wild. Every time I use a new program, I go through it with excruciating depth, changing settings and finding how to do things. It usually takes 5 minutes or less.

        The people who are just immediately helpless are the ones being bitched about here.

        My company switched from webex to teams with no transition time, the first 10 minutes of most meetings for a few weeks was “Am I audible?”, “I’m not sure how to share my screen”, “I started recording, you’ll have to unmute yourself again.”

        It was agony, but it wasn’t due to anyone’s incompetence.
