Hey Walmart, your design org just lost 13% of their productivity, their job satisfaction just dropped by 22% (91% are leaving), you added ~71 more unpaid minutes to their workday, & operating costs just increased by $3.3 million. Congrats, you just pissed off your shareholders.

If you’re on Threads & especially if I were follow eachother here, please share your Threads username so we can connect there. I am far more active on Threads, like much of the UX & Product Design community. I get it if you don’t want to use it, but that’s where I’m mostly at.

Dear British Airways your website is currently broken, you can’t progress w/ check-in via mobile app or any browser. Agent WILL NOT escalate to supervisor. Because the site is broken we will not be able to check-in in time prior to arrival at LHR & will be bumped 2hr prior. WTF!

I came here to say this: Of the folks I regularly read in the UX field & adjacent areas, and once you filter out automated posts, RTs only posts, posts broadcasted across multiple platforms, & scheduled posts, only a few folks are active here. Why are you still here reading this?
