Thousands of Taylor Swift fans attempting to buy presale tickets for the star’s upcoming tour meant work grinding to a halt for a certain cadre of millennials as demand overwhelmed Ticketmaster.
“Sorry, everyone…I will be five minutes late for our meeting because I need to get Taylor Swift tickets,” May Huang, an account executive at Highwire PR, a San Francisco-based communications firm, wrote to her team on Slack. “And then this morning our VP on the team Slacks and is like, ‘Oh, me too, actually. So let’s just push it,’” Huang said in an interview.
For Huang, the entire affair has consumed her whole day: “How can I focus on anything else?” she said.Slack channels everywhere have gone haywire. At Vox, “writers are melting down because they are getting shut out of taylor tickets and i’m honestly worried,” tweeted Alex Abad-Santos, a senior correspondent at the online publication. At Highwire PR, the Swiftie Slack channel #taylortalk has been flooded with panic and info-sharing.
