Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

The queue/phones/inbox/whatever sure is quiet today.

Back when I was in the helpdesk trenches, the phone system did go out during business hours one time. Most relaxing day of my professional career.

Years ago I worked for Target's support call center and we had monitors with the call queues displayed throughout the floor.

New people would get quickly corrected if they commented on the status of the queues. There was an unspoken look but don't comment rule.

Wow, we had totally different (but probably otherwise very similar) experiences lol. The big queue monitor was all our floor manager would talk about. Ever.
