The built-in chat is amazing, I can send ❤️ emojis to @Ryan all day, but Streams has reactions AND emojis. I really love emojis.

Yes, Streams is great for reactions, posting new zoom meetings, managing discussions, super helpful. It’s just so fun and easy to use, some people around here can get a little carried away.

Honestly, a few days ago I made it through a full day without typing out a single word. It was the best day I’ve had in two months.

I really enjoy using Projects. It’s super productive and drop dead simple to use, which, if we’re being honest, is important around here. When I’m CEO again each one of our locations will use it. That’s when we’ll start crushing again. As an outdated, aging paper products firm headed for eventual bankruptcy.

BUZZZZ!!! That's where the work gets done. I use it to post pictures of the Dundies and hilarious email forwards. People can actually use these things called reactions to show how much they like something. Check this one out 😷 I think it means people laugh at my posts so much it makes them nauseous? One time I got back from Jamaica and I accidentally attached a picture of someone’s boobs to a buzz post on paper shredding from corporate. There were a lot of those reactions. It was hilarious.

Ledger? It’s great. As a paper sales professional, it’s important that everyone in our department is on the same page. Like how I can assign tasks in events and poke people to remind them to complete something. Last week I assigned a reminder to @Dwight to submit a complaint ticket to @Toby that he doesn’t like the pokes. He hasn’t completed this simple assignment, so I’ll go ahead and poke him.

@Jim ! For the last time, stop poking me. I’m sending a ticket to HR to tell them you’re abusing the new software tool and myself in the process.

Tickets allows me to have meaningful interactions with most of the employees at Dunder Mifflin. Most of them. I just really wish Jim would stop putting Dwight's shoes in jello.

I think I like the dashboard most, because it’s the first thing people see. It’s friendly, but professional. I wish people here were more professional.

I once volunteered for a two-week search off the coast of Nova Scotia for a missing Cessna pilot. He never turned up, but we had a nice ceremony for him at a local tavern. RIP, “Creed Bratton.” RIP…

Every day, I change my profile picture to one of the kittens in Sprinkles’s most recent litter in an effort to find them new homes. Except for Gizmo. Gizmo doesn’t get a profile picture. He knows what he did.

I use Buzz a lot to update the office about the dangers of bailers, and to never ever put anything in them because it can kill someone. Most of the office confirms they understand. Most of the office.

Yes I had to officially write @Michael up for bailing marshmallows. He signed the ticket digitally so I know legally we're protected from his poor decisions. I just worry about the rest of the world.

So there’s a taco truck that started parking in the street across from the building on Fridays, but they release their menu on Tuesdays. So I created a stream called “Taco Tuesday”where I share that week’s menu so everyone can decide what they want to order by Friday when the taco truck arrives. But people keep getting mad at me because they think “Taco Tuesday” means that there are tacos there on Tuesday. But they’re going to be there on Friday. It’s not confusing.

Oh, the “Taco Tuesday” stream? Yeah, I don’t know what Kevin’s doing.

What’s confusing? The stream is called “Taco Tuesday” because the Friday menu comes out on Tuesday. If it came out on Friday, I would have called it “Taco Friday.”

Last Friday, I had to run up to our house in Martha’s Vineyard and before I left I posted a poll to Buzz about our new corporate restructuring. Even though I wasn’t driving, I knew I’d be away from my computer for a few hours and wanted to get some feedback on the upcoming policy. Long story short, I’m really glad Ledger is mobile friendly. It allowed me to see which managers did, or did not, confirm they read the post.

You know what’s something I don’t like about it? Whoever set up the Scranton team made it so I have to read every little buzz. Seriously! Normally when I see “Work alcohol policy: MANDATORY,” I just toss it in the trash and crack open a can. But now I have to confirm I’ve read it?

This policy was implemented for a reason. And he was that reason.

Nard-Dog loves that Ledger brings everyone together. It’s like a capella—it strips away all the extra instruments and lets us do what we do best. The whole team is in perfect harmony now.
