My work laptop decided that it didn't like working so it stopped. I had a couple very frustrating hours spent on the phone with corporate tech support redoing things I'd already done, and now they're sending me a new computer. Until it shows up, I'm stuck literally working from my phone. My phone has access to a lot of corporate tools. Teams, Outook, Jira, GitHub, etc. The form factor just isn't particularly good to get stuff done. Android's desktop mode is surprisingly helpful. Who da thunk it?
