minus-squareRhonda Sandtitslinkfedilinkarrow-up45·5 hours agoDo NOT tell anybody in the office that you use Libre Office. If you do, you will be blamed for every problem anyone encounters. Font size looks incorrect - Carl’s fault for using libre office to edit the file (even though you never worked on that project at all). Paper jamb in the printer - Carl’s fault for printing a document from that weird libre office program. I got fired for saying something racist on twitter - Carl’s fault for using that weirdo libre shit.
