I apologise if this hits too hard.
It’s funny how accountability is just ignored so that certain folks get to feel good.
Having worked in tech companies for decades, I’ve never once felt comfy with letting computer science majors just take the wheel… but I’m sure someone think this hits “hard”.
I’m glad my company speaks a different language than English, and can’t use all the word soup completely. That said, my company is also wondering why my timesheets never add up to the entire day because always in meetings, scrum, or “can we jump on video chat for a sec because it’s easier to explain vocally than in writing”… And that “sec” turns into a 30 minute tutorial I have to give.
We translated the agile word soup to French here :(
Ouch… My company speaks French as well. :( I get to hear the buzzwords in English.
My condolences, friend.
A bottle off rum for the morning standup?
Take a shot anytime the non technical scrum master/product owner wants to “help” by trying to get someone else involved the moment you mention any kind of detail/problem/thing you’re working on
Sorry about the liver
Might as well, it’d be as useful 🙄
And the only thing even worse than SCRUM is literally every other option
I’m able to get the good parts of scrum without all the overhead with kanban. Sprints are worthless, work doesn’t align on a 2 week cadence anyway.
