Summary

From October 16th, 2024 at 10:05 PM PDT to 1:37 AM PDT October 17th, 2024, some users experienced issues with their user status. Statuses couldn't be cleared, and the expiration reflected current time. In some cases, statuses had defaulted to "In a meeting". We traced the issue back to a delay in the job queue that handles custom user status updates. Once we were able to clear the jobs causing the delay, we rolled out a fix resolving the issue for impacted users.
