I thought nothing could suck more than Lync but Skype for Business proved me wrong

Has anyone eloped or done a zoom wedding? Any regrets?
I wouldn’t mind a small wedding/reception, but I can’t help but think zoom might feel a little lonely/unreal.

Skype for business we are using in my firm isn't allowing screensharing and it is driving mad!
Do you think it's because it's a cheaper version or just blocked by company? Any alternatives?

Best outfit you’ve seen on zoom thus far?

Thoughts on managers (& up) who leave their Skype status on "Away" at all times?

What is the acceptable interval of pinging someone on slack? (Am chasing down information, took 48 so far and the conversation is not going anywhere)

Hi! I had a phone interview and (in my opinion) went really well. The recruiter told me to contact after two days (if she didn’t) to schedule a Skype call with the creative department (count)

Is it necessary to do an in-person interview all the way across the country if I was just on campus for a visit in December? Is Skype sufficient if offered?

I want to maximize chances for acceptance.

A few weeks ago I had a boss make fun of me on a call for looking “gloomy” and he wouldn’t let it go. He kept yelling in a joking way at me to ‘cheer up’ in front of others on a zoom call. I wasn’t being rude, just quieter that day, as I was going through a mental health issue. . It’s been eating at me the way he bullied me on call - should I say something ? I feel a 55 year-old man should’ve learned not to do this by now... don’t know how to come at it without seeming whiny WOC...

Is anyone on the open strategy and/or adholes slack?

Important question! Any strategies for getting out of work zoom happy hours? Other than ignoring requests and not showing up, which has been my MO so far. But it’s getting a bit awkward.

So, I’m leaving and my leadership is pissed. I feel like their attitude is “well you’re leaving so now I just need you so I can download your brain.” and I’ve never felt more like an object and I’m trying not to internalize how guilty I feel about causing others to pickup my slack. Context: solid roll-off plan and I did all of my deliverables for the next month by working through the weekend. Any advice on how to reframe my thinking? Alternatively, AITA? They did just promote me.

Does anyone else’s Outlook/Skype profile picture lose resolution/become blurry after the Office 365 update? I get an error message when I try to update the picture

Flying home from a 5 day tropical vacation. It’s the first time I didn’t work while on vacation since 1998. That includes faxing copy from my honeymoon, flying home early to work on a pitch, writing in the hotel room bathroom while my family slept, staying in the room while my family went to Disneyland, etc. This time, I never read an email, answered a text, I deleted slack from my phone before I left. It’s been great. Not trying to trigger struggle porn just saying boundaries are 😌

What is the acceptable time frame to follow up with someone who is tardy for a zoom call? What’s the allowed grace period? Five minutes? Ten minutes?
