Ah, that's probably related to the bug I'm seeing where I've got my Teams calendar synced to my phone, but about half of the events show up an hour later or earlier.

Isn't getting this right, like, _the_ purpose of a calendar?






Microsoft recently claimed 30% of their code was AI written. Maybe this is what you get when your systems are non-deterministic

Having interviewed many people from there, I can only assume they hire anyone with a pulse and give them major features to write in a language they don’t know.

I'm unfortunately using Teams. It's really such a comprehensive piece of shit.

I can't share photos in a channel w/ a customer. Why? No idea. There's no feedback at all. Drag and drop simply fails. Uploads won't go. I went through support and there's 5 different places in the admin to check. All of them seem fine.


I had an issue with drag and drop which to me is just related to a very crappy UI. I have to drag and drop my file exactly inside my small chatbox, and if it's in another place, it won't work. Such nonsense.

I did a Teams call today. Neither of us could work out how to share our whole screen, only invidual apps, which was a massive pain.

This often breaks after a call has had interrupted shares and you have to leave and come back. This is one bug where you don't have to also reboot, great improvement MS!

Likely because of a police. Same for sharing of files ( pictures)

you can try copy pasting. For some reason drag and drop doesnt work on some channels

I try to explain to people how consistent under-market salaries and a combative work environment has thoroughly brain drained Microsoft. It's really hard to turn that around.

From using their products it seems they just don't value excellence. I think everything else is downstream of that (e.g. if they did, they'd pay more, optimize the work environment, etc.).

Excellence is threatening to those who have prioritized politicking above all else so they'll actively work against it.

Well said and so true. It’s a pity really since there is so much wasted human energy involved.

Might be time for me to apply ...

If they don't dogfood it (or dogpoop it, in this case), that would be one away to avoid working at a company where you have to use Microsoft Teams.

Yes my phone teams app, the outlook app, and Teams at times all regularly disagree about my calendar.

It's amazing as outlook used to be consistent, but now that its calendar is tied to teams too... it has inherited the suck.


The only app I hate more than outlook, is teams.
