Why You’re in a Bad Mood (and Don’t Even Know It)
Why You’re in a Bad Mood (and Don’t Even Know It)
Some days, I wake up already irritated. Nothing happened yet—no emails, no calls—but my mood is off.

Ray Orsini reposted thisRay Orsini reposted thisHow's this for a good weekend; last year we released Check by CyberDrain, a fully free OSS plugin for your browser to stop AITM attacks. Brandable, easily deployable in hundreds of ways, and using heuristic instead of static analysis, following examples from Merill to protect the identity at the forefront. This weekend we've reached an amazing goal; 125K installs of our plugin! That's over a hundred thousand potential phishing attacks that successfully that got blocked. M365 protection at zero costs, and able to report into any system using webhooks, the entire project got started as a hackathon and in true CyberDrain spirit was released as another free solution. Want to check the plugin yourself? check https://docs.check.tech - Its available for Edge, Chrome and very soon for Firefox too! With Microsoft no longer having Custom CSS Branding for new tenants as an option, and other protections we've made in the past being evaded by this makes so freaking happy. Imagine the amount of incidents that we are able to prevent together. Special thanks to Zac Richards on our team for making sure that Check is as good as it can be. #IntuneForMSPs #CyberDrain #Check

Ray Orsini shared thisGone Fishing (sort of seriously) I don’t wait until I’m burned out to take a break. I take breaks so I don’t get burned out. But for years, I did the opposite—kept pushing through, ignoring the signs. Then I’d spiral, crash, or snap at someone I care about. Eventually I realized: - I wasn’t in a bad mood because of one thing. - I was reacting to everything I ignored all week. So I started scheduling space. Now my calendar includes “gone fishing”—even if I never touch a fishing rod. I talked more about these invisible stressors earlier this week: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e8PUggxE Worth a read if your “bad mood” keeps sneaking up on you. #mentalhealth #boundaries #leadership #burnout #neurodivergent #msp #mindset

Ray Orsini shared thisTreat Your Employees Like You Give a Shit (seriously) If someone on your team is snippy, disengaged, or emotionally tapped out...It’s probably not just one thing. It’s 30 quiet little things piling up—and no space to process them.. The culture of "grind now, feel later" isn't just outdated. It's toxic. Treating your team like you give a shit doesn’t mean fixing every problem. It means creating a space where it’s safe to be honest. ✅ Check in before things fall apart. ✅ Celebrate mental breaks, not just “hustle.” ✅ Model healthy boundaries by actually logging off. I wrote more about those sneaky energy drains in my recent article. It’s not always obvious what’s burning us out—but we can learn to catch it sooner. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eBjs5cu2 #leadership #companyculture #emotionalintelligence #mentalhealth #neurodivergent #msp

Ray Orsini shared thisForward: I realize some of you may not agree with my perspectives. I make no effort to argue otherwise. I only ask that you extend respect if you choose to comment or share. As Pride month comes to a close, I've been reflecting on how most support tends to be... temporary. Companies roll out rainbow merchandise that vanishes July 1st, social media posts fade, and life moves on. But the struggles and celebrations of the LGBTQIA+ community don't pause for 11 months. So I decided to close out Pride month with something permanent. The LGBTQIA+ community isn't just important to me—it's personal. I've witnessed firsthand the daily challenges my family and close friends navigate. Maybe it resonates so deeply because I understand what it's like to be judged for who you are. I've had my share of cruel comments about my weight, and no matter how resilient you become, those experiences shape you. Those who know me understand that I consistently advocate for those who can't advocate for themselves. I see you, my neurospicy family. I see you, my LGBTQIA+ loved ones. I see you, and I'm not going anywhere. This past weekend, I connected with Gnaski (https://lnkd.in/eVzGrDyh), an Orlando tattoo artist who happens to be LGBTQIA+ and specializes in anime art. Since each of my tattoos represents a core aspect of my life, I wanted this piece's story to include the exact people I seek to support. The message couldn't be simpler: All forms of love are valid and will be respected. While Pride month ends, my commitment doesn't. This ink is permanent, and so is my support. Happy Pride—today, tomorrow, and every day after. #Pride #LGBTQIA #PermanentSupport #TattooArt #Inclusion #LoveIsLove

Ray Orsini shared thiswhen I think of social I think of [Amanda Smith]. Are you calling out Connor Swalm this morning? :DRay Orsini shared this📱 Happy Social Media Day! A day to celebrate memes, mentions, and that one coworker who always stays muted when it’s their turn to talk. (You know who you are 👀) At OITVOIP, we know great communication goes beyond the feed. That’s why we build tools that help MSPs stay connected — in DMs, on calls, and everywhere in between. Whether you're sending GIFs, syncing systems, or scaling support, solid communication is the real algorithm that matters. Give us a like, drop a comment, or share this with your favorite “always muted” teammate—because communication is better when everyone’s in the loop. 😎📲 #SocialMediaDay #OITVOIP #UnifiedComms #VoIPThatConnects #TechWithPersonality

Ray Orsini shared thisLet's be honest. As much as we try to be disciplined we've all given a slice of apple, let them on the bed or put them in ridiculous outfits. Let's celebrate a human's best friend on the best of all national days except Mother's Day (in case mom sees this... love you!). #woofdoggiedogg #dogdayRay Orsini shared thisStrong connections don’t stop at the network. 🐶💬 Today is Bond With Your Dog Day — and here at OITVOIP, we believe great communication starts with trust, loyalty, and the occasional tail wag. Whether they're our office buddies, home office co-workers, or the four-legged QA testers barking during a demo call — our dogs are part of the OIT family. So take a break, toss the ball, and enjoy a few moments of unfiltered joy with your built-in best friend. 💙🐾 Cloudie’s orders.

Ray Orsini liked thisRay Orsini liked thisI don't understand the pushback against MFA. It takes about 10 seconds more to log in, but your data is safer. Is it worth the 10 seconds? Is it worth the 10 seconds it takes to put on your seatbelt? One year ago today, my daughter was in a car wreck. She wore her seatbelt. Airbags went off. She was shaken up, but ok. It was worth the 10 seconds. That is all. #MFAmatters #2FA #wearyourseatbelt

Priority used to mean better voice quality. Now it means supporting the full mission—data, video, tools, and more. That’s what stuck with me from Chris Ortiz’s session at IACP. As Sr. Solutions Engineer at T-Mobile for Government, he broke down how T-Priority + slicing is giving agencies the right access, at the right time. Where’s your team seeing comms friction today? 🔗 https://t-mo.co/4fcE8ek https://dy.si/mwDo

The digital divide doesn’t end at the mainland—and neither should the funding to fix it. BEAD’s expansion to the U.S. Territories means meaningful investments in broadband infrastructure where it's needed most. Here's the breakdown: → Puerto Rico: $334.6M → Guam: $156.8M → Northern Mariana Islands: $80.8M → American Samoa: $37.6M → U.S. Virgin Islands: $27.1M Let’s keep pushing for universal broadband access, from coast to coast and island to island. #BEADFunding #BroadbandAccess #ConnectivityMatters #DigitalInclusion #TelecomIndustry #InfrastructureExpansion
