Outlook down

[OspreyO]

I expect so many senior managers and leadership live in email they are all in crisis.

 

[Martynt74]

Really shouldn't be a thing these days. Should be using authenticator apps or password managers.

I do for most, but just have the odd system which still only works with email

 

[Dis86]

Calendars are back!

 

[DJMK4]

Did you talk about it on morning television?

This is bound to be caused by AI vibe coding, hopefully this is another step closer to help burst the bubble sooner.

It's more likely to be a bodged infra change getting punted to prod by some poor junior or, it's DNS...

This meeting could've been an email.

For someone who isn't that IT literate, how does that work?

It doesn’t, especially with pensioners who already think one wrong keystroke during login is going to send all their savings to one of those Nigerian Princes or launch an ICBM.

My stock response to “Why does this keep happening?” is “Because it’s all coded by the lowest bidding supplier and/or a bunch of *****.” these days.

That's not the blue sky thinking we promote in the workplace.

We should be breaking down the silo's and making sure we're focused on the organisations North star....

 

[Worthy]

Let's circle back on this Monday.

Agreed. I'll find a slot for us to touch base and agree our strategic north stars.

I mean at this point there's no evidence for that; its not like MS doesn't have form for dodgy updates anyway; there were several outages last year of services, maybe just not quite as extended.

iPad's and iPhones all round with that lot, amazes me how many still just use email for everything.

Sadly, all emails are now meetings...

Sadly, all emails are now meetings...

And all Meetings are in Teams.....

Or worse, having to trek into the office for a face-to-face...on a Friday

Go into London of a Friday? Are you insane?

 

[Nabinium]

Go into London on any day? Are you insane?

Fixed.

Friday meetings should be banned; I worked somewhere years ago (long pre-covid) that banned all meetings after 11AM on a Friday - it was bliss; although generally I was sitting in an airport lounge with a beer heading home anyway at that point!
