My coworkers and I are constantly sending each other jokes and memes when any of us are work from home. Sometimes the official company chat will just be everyone communicating through gifs.

It's incredibly rare anyone actually uses the Team's chat for actual work purposes. If I need to talk to someone for work purposes I usually send passive aggressive emails.

They've just added to the bottom of that email signatures.

We're just wondering who certified that, the general consensus is that it's probably BS.

My company has 11 people, so Teams is the easiest way for us to communicate other than just talking across the room or walking 10 feet to a different room lol

It all depends on company culture. The last contract I worked was 100% virtual, and the chat channels were all business, all the time. I don't think I saw a single meme the whole 8 months I worked there.
