Hey, it’s cool, everyone – she was just trying to add The Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg back to the Signal chat.

Alanis is here! Now all we need to do is entice Kristen Lee…

OK, but you don’t get Fancy Kristen unless you have Softbank level funding.

Lol, that’s your internal problem. We still love Alanis and are thrilled to have her in the Autopian universe.

Which is worse, accidental Huddle invites, or reply all to a company-wide email?

At least with Outlook, in certain organizations you can “recall” those messages as damage control.

I once talked shit about our CEO on slack to a colleague. I was still screen sharing. The CEO was on the call. It was brief enough that somehow he didn’t see it but my god I thought I had just killed my career (and my bosses who I was chatting with). Biggest work related fuckup I’ve ever made by far. I never talk shit about anyone at work anymore, full stop. It’s not worth it. My boss ripped me apart for being so stupid and rightly so. I would not have blamed him one bit if he shit canned me.

This was 5 years ago and we still both work at the same place.

Slack is both the best and worst thing to ever happen to businesses. It can make connections so much easier, especially for teams that are geographically spread. It is also terrible if you do something like Alanis did…which a coworker did on Wednesday…to almost 11,000 people.

Makes me think of the first 30 seconds of this cutscene from Serious Sam 2.
