Yesterday, I did shitty emergent work that wasn’t planned for because our tech is a dumpster fire.
Today, I plan on refactoring embarrassing code that hasn’t really done any business logic correctly for two years, but I probably won’t because one of you will ping me to do something else 30 minutes after this.
No blockers.

We do all our standups sitting down, because they’re far, far too long to do standing up.

When I was SCRUM master, people legit got mad at me because I started at the exact time, gave everybody <2 minutes…So now instead of daily stand-ups, we have daily meetings. 30 minutes where 2 to 3 people can dominate 10 minutes talking about their specific problem while the rest of the team is just sitting there doing nothing. 80% of the people go within 5 minutes, but the other people either turn it in to a TED talk, or tutor session

now you’re like the other 87%, a garbage blend of agile and waterfall. Have fun double logging all activities to save other people time!

We once had a standup where none of the PMs were available, so us devs just did it ourselves. It took about 2 minutes.
