Ever since you upgraded me to the new thread I've been having problems sending emails from my phone. Can you please fix this problem once and for all because it's impacting my ability to make sales.

We should move to the cloud

Since we're replacing it anyway, instead of a regular thread let's get hyperthreading, that's a lot more modern and should be much faster.

I backed up the old thread on this Buffalo but I can't see it on My Network and there's just a red light blinking? CRITICAL. THIS IS AFFECTING PATIENT CARE.

We need to move to a new thread, we’ll do it really cheap and have the users move their own posts. Can you provide instructions?

Someone deleted all the old posts? Can we restore from backup? **URGENT!**

Thank you for your email.

The new hotness is starting a new conversation in Teams instead of replying to the existing conversation, leaving everyone else wondering what the gently caress you're talking about.

I was involved in stopping one about 3 years back so they do still happen in our modern computing age. Some dude was spamming a list with like 30k users on it (that someone did not restrict who could send mail to) with a O365 email OTP decryption link. The email would go to the group with a link and anytime someone clicked the link it would generate another email to the group. This happened over and over and over for a good hour as people on the list just blindly clicked something they shouldn't have. I guess I'm just happy it wasn't a phishing attempt.

hello

i quit my computer-touching job about six weeks ago, and it's been an enormous relief.

unfortunately, stressing about income and bills and things is reducing that relief, so i will probably look for something more permanent and structured than Uber driving sometime soon. my plan was to sell artwork to the horny people of the internet, but i can't seem to get focused enough to get that off the ground. undiagnosed adhd? probably.

anyway, wish me luck as well?? :yotj:

[Reply all] guys, stop using reply all!
Also %colleague% is not able to load the new thread ever since he decided to trim the excess slack on the wires coming from his hard drive monitor. He did a real tidy job of duct taping the ends back together again, so that can't be the issue. It's the server mainframe maybe down?

You love to see it. New thread, new year, things are looking up in the professional business email thread.

May this be the :yotj: for many of us.

Especially me, since I was laid off in November and need to move to another state as soon as my gf decides which university she's going to go to.

I need a new job so bad

Maybe in a new field. Is there one that pays better for less work? I'm pretty sure after decades of dealing with technology I'm enough of a sociopath to be an exec

Old thread: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3845247

Still quite possibly one of the funniest stories I have seen on this forum:

May your 2023 be a :yotj: for you.

The last thread had to be retired because it only natively supported basic auth and we can’t make any changes to its backend because it only ever worked in IE.

Teams doesn't fetch new messages if you're idle?? :psyduck:

That's insane

My favorite teams quirk is if a user wants a name change after theyre hired (say they want their first to be a nickname only), Teams holds the first name it grabbed for up to a freaking month because it doesn’t update its cache for personal information for a long time

If you can survive your sanity checks doing that, you will be bulletproof in this field. I suspect everyone ITT has had times trying to do normalish tasks on a machine spawned in primordial soup and felt their souls leaving their bodies in the process. For me, it tried to leave through the ear!
