NextFest is today! Now we pray to the gods of software to keep the game-breaking bugs at bay 🙏 (and we also did QA and stuff but you know)

Best question on our management feedback form: What's the most annoying thing about your boss? What do you complain to your partners/friends about: "ugh my boss always does _____ and it's really annoying!" Obviously employee's answers are going to be toned down, but it's been very revealing!
