@BillHiggins Similar to Microsoft Team, I still need to use “Skype for business” every now and then with clients. Everything is OK until it suddenly isn’t.

The https://t.co/sm7OxxXOaP says “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.” The problem I’ve found over the years is we rely too heavily on tools for interactions. So when people work in different tools those interactions simply don’t happen.

@johncutlefish I have led a few internal products and the problem I have with “Internal customers” is typically customers have a choice. Often internal products/projects are the only option and there is no marketplace. So I much prefer “internal users.”

@wickedsmahtguy I think it depends on how much snow and where. A couple feet in New England translates into employees can take an hour or two off to plow and the like. An 1/4 inch in Florida… yeah take the whole week off.

@netflix Just searched “Chanukah” in the Netflix kids section and getting nothing but Christmas results. Any recommendations?

I just realized Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, Nov. 7. I will be spending the following 6 months correcting all my clocks.

Some good advice from my neighbor.

Perhaps I should not make coffee in the morning until I have had my morning coffee. Successfully made a mess of the kitchen making coffee. Forgot a piece to my coffee maker causing it go everywhere.

Note to self: When presenting from a laptop on your lap. It is best not to have the camera on when you are on a rocking chair. Your audience may get sea sick.

My new goal for the end of the day is to work my way down to having only 1 browser tab open.

My initial New Years resolution was to eat healthier and exercise. What I really need to do is reduce the number of Slack channels/workspaces I belong to.

IBM condemns today's unprecedented lawlessness and we call for it to end immediately. These actions have no place in our society, and they must stop so our system of democracy can work.

Note to self: While ensuring your son is getting plenty of exercise such as running in place & jumping during #quarancation it is important there isn’t a family member trying to work on the floor below.

Note to self: Before committing to attend a meeting please remember to ask which timezone.

My son has hit the “why” phase where every answer is followed by a “why.” So “why are you driving slow” was followed by “why do they pave the road?” This escalated to me explaining the changing states of matter to a 2 year old. A “why” followed… I just gave up and said “magic”
