People who leave "reactions" to my messages on MS-Teams. Fuck completely off!
Now I have to click some other bullshit "activity" button to get the notification to fuck off even though I'm clearly participating in the chat and can clearly see your gay-ass, "Thumbs-Up" cartoon nonsense.
I'm sorry that I mistook you for a Project Controls Director when you're actually a 12yo girl. Fucking idiot.
project controls director sounds exciting

I'm already on the phone and monitoring email all god damn day. The last thing I want to do is monitor a chat room too.

PC Director shouldn't be providing forecasts, that's what the worker bees are for. I was a summer student in Project Controls at Suncor while in university many moons ago. "Hey uhhh...we didn't incur anything in this control account this month...but we have 700k forecasted." "Just roll it to next month." "Okay." *repeat every month*

It's not complicated. It's the Ring Leader of the Project Controls Circus.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Hence, she's in charge of: Schedule Monkeys, EstiMonkeys and Cost Control Monkeys.
Why did I say "she"?
Because only 98% of the time the job is held by an Iranian Female. There is no scientific explanation for this fact, but it be a fact.
I'm the opposite. I never check my email, never check my phone, I only watch slack. And I use reactions, because I don't need to say "sounds good" 18 times in a conversation.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Like ^that but point it at the [K].
I actually don't mind when people use the thumbs up in Teams. Tells me they actually saw it.
Same. And you’d get a notification anyways if they typed out ‘ok sounds good’. Sounds like this should be in the “that shouldn’t be pet peeves” thread.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I still heavily dislike teams.
Well I have a somewhat related one. Microsoft Viva or whatever their new name for it is now that books “focus time” in people’s calendars. It’s hard enough finding good meeting slots, but then with focus time filling up the empty slots in everyone’s calendars it’s next to impossible booking meetings on short notice, especially with 3 or more people. At least if people have calendars open to show meeting titles you can book over focus time, but I find most people at my new company keep them private. I swear it feels like some weeks I spend a solid 5% of my time just trying to arrange meeting times. Fucking hell
