LYRICS:
Forget Slack,
Forget Slack,
Company meeting, everybody's out of sync,
I'm trying to join,
clicking on, clicking on this link, this link
Is it Teams,
'cos I don't feel like I can deal,
With all the broken login schemes,
The UI is gonna make you scream,
You know your Discords from your Slacks,
You know your email from your fax,
You remember IRC, NNTP and Jabber too,
You know your Jitsi from your Meet,
Your virtual background's pretty neat,
When all the other tools are down, there's always gather.town, and ICQ
You know your way around online,
You know your Hopin from your PINE,
You know the time in Amsterdam, Seattle, Milan, and Timbuktu
You speak at virtual events,
Can't even see your audience,
It's like you're talking to the void, it'll leave you paranoid and feeling blue,
Everybody Facetime, Telegram, Signal, Chime,
Webcam, microphone, Sat at home, all alone,
Zoom, shake, head ache, find a way to stay awake,
Seven hours without a break, This is more than I can take!
We're working in Teams, baby,
Yeah we're working in Teams, around here now,
Yeah, we're living in the future
And believing all the hype,
Just don't ask any questions
About what happened to Skype,
We’re shipping all our features
Got to hit that milestone,
Gotta keep talking, talking, talking
but no-one's talking on the phone,
We're on Teams, baby,
We're running on Teams around here now...
On 365
On 365
Just gimme some Teams

Yesterday I was introduced to one of Dylan Beattie's parodies by a colleague, this morning I finished them all. So recognizable. Yes, they made us switch to Teams too...

God I enjoy a channel making songs about complaints I have never said out loud

You know those Teams meetings we all love? This is the brilliant parody theme they deserve!

I never used Slack or Zoom. But I’m not a fan of teams. People ask me: “didn’t you get my chat?” I’m like: “which channel? Have you seen my list of channels that I was member to? I’m 48 so I live by: “if it’s important give me a phone call! If not don’t bother me at all.” And email at this customer 80-120 Emails a day. I just don’t even read them anymore. Again: “If it’s important tell me in person.” Or you don’t want me to do actual work than I’ll go through your company Stasi propaganda and your 500+ chat messages on teams a day!

Every time i log in i check the remember me box. I still couldn't figure out what it does because its not for remembering the user thats for sure. I have a headphone thats connected to my laptop. My surfice book somehow realizes i want to use that and configures itself. Discrod configures itself. God damn skype configures itself. Teams breaks itself and either i speak with the michrophone but the sound comes out of my laptop or the other way around. Its insane how my uni pays microsoft a fortune to srew me. Take me to dinner first or something microsoft please.

Nice song

I had a couple interviews in teams. The first one, the email said I could join through browser, but I couldn't and had to postpone the interview. The other, I couldn't join any calls so I had to host it. I hope I never have to use it again
-
I doubt that I can see a good software made by MS in my life, I am still have 50 year to wait.
-
I would've clicked "like" but this has 256 likes at the time of writing so... obviously not gonna

2:10 when is there a time difference between Amsterdam and Milan? More timezone shenanigans that I'm not aware of?
-
Lol I don’t think it’s that bad though 🤣🤣

It's funny, because Teams sucks
