- claudeganon 6y agoI had a job once where the person tasked with training me would only do so over Slack, even though they sat 3 feet in front of me. If I spoke up to ask a question, they would angrily turn around and tell me to message them instead. Needless to say, I quit after 2 weeks.
- swsieber 6y agoWhat about Jira? Ha ha seriously though, I was on a video call and people heard my laptop fans kick on and thought I was compiling. In reality, I opened Jira.
- ethbr0 6y agoYour laptop fans spinning is the sound of Java developers externalizing the costs of their enhanced productivity.
- jb775 6y agoAgreed. Not to mention that little green dot acting as a de-facto surveillance tool itself. (I've always wanted to build a Slack green-dot-activator tool that activates the green dot based on customizable settings)
