IO: Microsoft Outlook is the worst program ever

[iron yuppie]

It just took me two minutes to load a single email. I dare anyone to name a worse program for any facet of tech life.

its pretty terrible...

I think all of the Microsoft suite of programs are pretty much garbage even though I am forced to use them on a daily basis.

None Office related, iTunes is at the top of my **** list lately, there was an update recently and most of my carefully curated music library was completely ****ed. It took me days to re-label and re-load it all

I don't think that taking 2 minutes to load an email was outlook's fault... sounds more like an internet issue to me.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Nah, it's Outlook's fault

the very definition of user error is what this sounds like.

Office suite is GREAT. People just don't know how to use them beyond the surface level.

I stand by my opinion

Yup, I work in IT and that's pretty much always the problem.
