Use channels to organize conversations. Channels are like chat rooms that are dedicated to specific topics. This can help to keep conversations organized and prevent information from getting lost.
Set up direct messages with your team members. Direct messages are a great way to have one-on-one conversations with your team members.
- Make sure Alex and the Project Manager(s) are included in conversations for visibility- unless the information is private or personal.
- There is a huddle option for quick conversations. It allows you to share your screen or turn on/off your camera
Use the @ symbol to notify team members. If you need to get the attention of a specific team member, you can use the @ symbol to notify them.
Use “/giphy” to post a gif of your choosing. An example would be “/giphy cats” or “/giphy happy birthday”
Use emojis to add personality to your messages. Emojis can be a fun way to add personality to your messages and make your conversations more engaging.
Use the “Save for Later” feature for important messages to keep track of

You can update your status to say “Vacation”, “Lunch”, “Coffes Break” or other things as needed

You can set your notification schedule to certain hours of the day, or turn them off while on vacation.
