Love and hate against the usage of SLACK!!

I love the invention of slack; but at the same time, I hate it so much I want to throw my phone away everytime I heard that “ding” sound.

Slack is a very powerful tool, especially at work. The tool allows me to talk to people and get an instant response without leaving my desk, or get my hand off my computer. The conversation between me and my team members was recorded and easily searchable. Communication and work collaboration become easy with the call and screen share features.

Because of it’s so easy to use, it makes me never stop working! My co-workers start to add me to all different private and public channels and it is quite overwhelming. Same discussions happen in multiple channels with a different group of people. At the end of the day, people ended up not responding to any critical slack messages and commented on useful facts.

This is the time that I miss the good old days when meetings run on paper and pen.
