  • AndrewSheley AndrewSheley (@AndrewSheley) reported

    @shanselman @hbomax Not nearly as bad as when you run an update query accidently in production instead of test. Then scramble to restore a database backup and fix the data before anyone notices.... Always fun....

  • AnikoTevvit Ani Kotevvit (@AnikoTevvit) reported

    Hey @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp, do you know your Roku app is screwed up??? When I finally get the thing to work, I can't pause. I'm not the only one, either. Been talking to friends around the country who are having the same problem. Please fix this!!!

  • itsbrunarios Bruna Rivers (@itsbrunarios) reported

    @DavidXNewton @HBOMaxHelp I was fine, thank you <3 The bacteria were dead and the solvent wasn't the worst to deal with, so the emergency shower and a lot of moisturizer did the trick

  • M_L_A_Z Mehrac Aliyari (@M_L_A_Z) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear Intern, I once sent the wrong order to the wrong supplier. Good thing these two sometimes work together and are not true rivals. And let’s not start about the times I gave the wrong lesson to the wrong class. Mistakes happen. What truly matters is learning from them.

  • tomjreynolds Tom Reynolds (@tomjreynolds) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hey dear interm don't worry you're not being paid for the work you do, find an employer who values you and will pay for your time

  • incomingGoats Zachary S (@incomingGoats) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Cut the intern some slack. We all do stupid stuff when underpaid. I called one of the creators of Big Fix in the middle of the night thinking he was the help desk. Live and learn.

  • JoeLane33 Joe Lane (@JoeLane33) reported

    @hbomax this app blows! Nothing but ******* problems, making me randomly sign in with codes over 10 times and it never works! Get this **** together cause i want to cancel the **** out of you anyway but my kids like it! I want something in return also

  • AllisonCentreC Allison Elliott-Shannon ’01 (@AllisonCentreC) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear Intern, Been there. Then replied all while trying to fix it.

  • bluumonk Scott Wells (@bluumonk) reported

    @hbomax why does your app crash every 15 mins? Is that what the test email was about?

  • reccewife Kim @SheIsFierce (@reccewife) reported

    @JCStadnyk @HBOMaxHelp I used to work at a church, and I handled a lot of the logistics of funerals. Way back in limewire days, I used it to make a last minute as requested CD of generic Christian funeral music for when the family was being seated.

  • poolsidechacos Alexandra Sleeping (@poolsidechacos) reported

    @currycommie @hbomax They need to hire some developers to help them out, fr.

  • mizlisa19 Lisa in Dallas (@mizlisa19) reported from McKinney, Texas

    @hbomax you’re a waste. All you do is buffer and crash the @roku

  • El_RickySpanish Rick ( Top 1% in HELL ) (@El_RickySpanish) reported

    Does @hbomax crash on anybody else ? Seems like it’s always crashing . Netflix and Hulu always work fine for me but as soon as I’m HBOmax that ***** malfunctions

  • TomIsTurrible CptRedEye (@TomIsTurrible) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, My sister has sent home 2 different viruses that wrecked our house via her toddler son. I’m currently sick with RSV. That same idiot, too sick to work, had me mowing in the rain today… Some of us exist to catch other’s Hell💯

  • mariateresag Nona Yerbiznatch/p🌊😷🇺🇸🥗🏳️‍🌈💃✝️🧘‍♀️👻💙🖤⚛ (@mariateresag) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern: I was a temp at a company who sold giant city trash incinerators. They didn't give me anything to do for days. Finally they gave me the culmination of all their months hard work in a fedex to drop in the fedex box at the door, for a meeting overseas. I forgot. 1/

    @howrudeareyou @hbomax I have a Sony Bravia, and have lots of problems with the HBOMax app. I usually just load it onto my phone and then cast the programming onto the smart TV.
