A Grateful American

| Microsoft aggressively cut its human workforce in various engineering divisions to free up money for AI infrastructure by nearly 30%, and replaced a lot of that with 30% AI to manage coding, and systems management. Anyone (deeply) familiar with IT in large environments, knows that when people are no longer "in touch" with systems, they "lose track" of how things work and what the current "reality" is. (how it all works). It is a very rapid perishing skill and loss of situational awreness. Sort of like falling asleep during a journey, being taken off the mode of transportation and waking up in a strange place, with no context of where you are and what is going on in that moment. It will take some serious "out of the box" types to sort this out and get ahead of the "glitch". It is also a clear wake up moment as to those who are pushing hard for automation, and less "reliance" on humans. People have the ability to "out think" technology, because of the very nature of random thinking and unorthodox relational abstract ratinallity.

Seeker of Clarity

| What a shit show. I'm being asked "what we're going to do about this?".  We're going to wait. "Should we get a notice out? A press release?" Yeah. Good idea. You go do that.  |

Well, to be honest, it's not so bad to be on right now. The email firehose has stopped, and Teams meeting are pretty light right now!  |

Shall Not Be Infringed

| https://status.cloud.microsoft/Last updated: Friday, November 13, 2026 at 12:00 PM UTC (7:00 AM EST) quote: Current status: We’re seeing encouraging recovery progress in Europe, with service availability and email delivery performance improving across a growing portion of affected Microsoft 365 infrastructure. Japan remains comparatively more stable, while North America is also improving; however, some users may still experience intermittent issues as recovery actions continue. We're focused on addressing the remaining areas of disruption and improving service consistency across affected regions. Reducing email queues and backlogs remains a priority, and the extended 48-hour email timeout window remains in place to help protect delayed messages as delivery catches up.
At this time, we have no evidence of malicious activity associated with this incident. We will continue to treat this with urgency until full mitigation, and we will share a full Post-Incident Report with root cause and defense-in-depth actions after mitigation is complete.
Scope of impact: This issue may affect users attempting to access the affected Microsoft 365 services. Next update by: Friday, November 13, 2026, at 1:00 PM UTC
quote: - Microsoft Copilot 365: Users may be unable to load Copilot Chat or receive responses in the web and desktop apps, and Copilot experiences may be unable to access work data such as email, calendar, and files.
- Microsoft Teams: Most of the core functionality including joining calls, meetings, group chats, and channel messages are not impacted. Scenarios that depend on Exchange Online, including Calendar related failures with scheduling, invites, viewing, and meeting edits. Creation of Live or Virtual events fail. Failures with Copilot responses for outlook, calendar, or M365 files, read history, or adding to new chats. Navigating to App chats, adding new contacts or syncing contacts in settings fail. Standard channels are working fine but users may experience the inability to create or delete private or shared channels.  Oh, the horror! How will anything get done?

| The best thing about this is being recently retired and not even knowing it happened until I saw this thread. |
