I’ve said before that one of the main reasons I started this channel was because I hated my construction job and I don’t really like office jobs either.

But as I’ve been working on the Game Show I’ve obviously had to be on top of my emails and meetings and keeping everything running.

My girlfriend likes to say “I worked so hard not to have a job, I created a job for myself in starting the Game Show.” (Which I’m very happy about)

Anyways, this morning I got on a call with a team and they asked “would it be possible for us to stop using Google Meet and use Microsoft Teams instead?”

“Absolutely not” I said “nothing in this world could make me download Microsoft Teams”

What do you think?

That's like choosing between Beelzebub or Mephistopheles as "which demon do you want to be tortured by?"

I use Teams, and I was filling our calendar when it said I reached the maximum events and I need to pay to add more. That’s why my team now uses Google

Microsoft would literally rather make an entirely new state of matter for their quantum computers than fixing Microsoft Teams

I'd rather rewire my entire fleet of cars in one day than ever touch Microsoft Teams again

I'm an interpreter who uses these platforms daily. Zoom is by far the least troublesome. Meets is a distant second place. But it hijacks my camera zoom constantly. Microsoft is even worse. But all of these are better than Webex.

As someone who is forced to use Microsoft Teams because the company refuses to listen to feedback, Don't use it. I cannot tell you how many times it crashed our computers when we loaded in a powerpoint presentation.

As someone who works in a semi-corpo job, Microsoft Teams for actually businesses works really well outside that caption transcripts are no longer free with the big enterprise plan.

I mean have you talked with them about why they need to use Teams? We're missing some context here.

Fun fact: many Microsoft services are provided by Google for free.

Nothing fills me with more dread than seeing that someone scheduled a meeting and forgot to turn off the switch that automatically generates a teams meeting
