Welcome Wednesday: Let's build a (summer time) Story - Part 3

[Jimmy Seddon]

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

I know that we had a lot of fun building a story together one line at a time in the past, so I thought it was about time we bring it back for another round during the summer months (here at least).

I'll get things started:

As the Atlassian Admin, I love that everyone takes vacation in the summer. 

Alright, the rest is up to all of you, let's see how long we can get this chain going!  Please continue the story in the comments below.

I hope you all have a great rest of the week!

Welcome to all the new members!

As the Atlassian Admin, I love that everyone takes vacation in the summer.  I get so much of MY work done when users aren't asking for new changes.

Hi Everyone

Happy Hump day :) Most of the week is gone now! Phew

And it’s a great time to implement system cleanup and try out new functionality like Marketplace apps.

Plus it gives me more time for networking with folks outside the organization while I'm making my life easier!

Thank you to everyone who has chimed in so far!  I love how this is going.  Let's keep it building!

But, I also make sure to spend some time looking at the back burner tasks to see if there is something quick I can deliver to make someone happy when they return from vacation.

And when they return and are inundated with emails/chats and work, they will see that I delivered something phenomenal into the environment!
