IT guy here. Anyone got a loaded gun I can borrow? Just one bullet.

[–] tophneal@sh.itjust.works 77 points 1 day ago (3 children)

this is one of those rare times I enjoy all our shit being in the cloud. Not a damn thing I can do but post an advisement, and everyone knows there’s no room to be mad at me. It’s practically been a day off

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

This was my first thought upon hearing this news. For some companies, not having Teams and Outlook is basically PTO.

[–] Rinn@awful.systems 28 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I'm just mad these big outages always happen during American work hours. Come on, I want to sit and twiddle my thumbs in Europe too.

Have you been making the appropriate blood sacrifices?

[–] durably465@lemmy.ml 2 points 16 hours ago

It's 4:30 UTC, seems like the sacrifice is much appreciated.

Not a damn thing I can do but post an advisement

A paper one, on the office bulletin board, because Outlook is also down, lol.

[–] tophneal@sh.itjust.works 3 points 21 hours ago

I would’ve gone into the office to do that if teams had gone down too. Unfortunately it did not for us lol

[–] Mynameisallen@lemmy.zip 35 points 23 hours ago (4 children)

Also in IT, if only Teams could go down too 🤞🏻

Retired former IT guy here. I'm enjoying watching the tech world burn while wrapped in a blanket on my couch, sipping hot chocolate. ☕

I feel bad for my fellow IT guys who have to deal with it, but it's so nice being removed from it all now.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 hours ago

I mean the beauty of SaaS is that all the IT guys can throw their hands in the air and say it's not their problem.

Unless you work for MS, of course.

[–] Mynameisallen@lemmy.zip 7 points 22 hours ago

I just walked through the office telling literally everyone I saw "Outlook is down pass it on"

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 9 points 23 hours ago

It would be a dramatic improvement in service.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 5 points 21 hours ago

it was out for somebody

[–] tophneal@sh.itjust.works 5 points 22 hours ago

I was sooooo hopeful when I saw it in the list of affected services, buuuuuuuut noooooooooooo

[–] toastadar@lemmy.zip 6 points 19 hours ago

You should know by now 2 is one, 1 is none
