And outlook, totally agree. How about this one? I have a right hand view with my calendar. Sometimes it goes away just when I minimize outlook. I have it specifically set, and wtf outlook, did you just forget it was there? I have to go back in and reset it. Sometimes when I bring outlook back up, the text is super tiny like it's some microscopic font. I have to close and reopen just for it to go back to normal. What else, how about the time on older messages? It just shows the date in the message, and it's almost impossible to just see the time of the email, which is vital information. Or how about the fact that outlook is basically spying on me, and they aren't even sneaky about it since it sends me an email with their findings on my "behavior". I don't need you to tell me how much I worked, or when I have free time. I fucking know... And here's my number one peeve about microsoft... let me start a fucking sentence with a lowercase letter!!! Why does every fucking microsoft product think that it needs to autocorrect me when I am intentionally trying to do something. I try and list commands that are case sensitive in a document or email, and it erroneously fucking capitalizes them. EVERY FUCKING TIME...

That is some seriously scary shit, and people seem to be just fine with ignoring that it is happening. I feel like I am perceived as the crazy guy for pointing it out to people. It is crazy how the majority of people just don't give a shit about their own privacy, until it's too late.
