The RoadOof. I’ve been on projects that really could be described as “road maintenance in Centralia, PA.” Never again.
The same road 2 sprints later
Product Owner: “How many more people is it going to take to fix the road?”
Dev Team: "Well, there’s a ticket in the backlog to put out the underground fire. It’s been in the backlog for five years, and it’s a blocker for this “Fix Road” ticket.
Product Owner: “…so, can we fix the road first and then go back and put out the fire a little bit at a time as capacity allows over the next few sprints?”
Dev Team: “…”
This hurt me on a spiritual level
…I fail to see why this would be an issue connected with practitioners of live comedy 🤔
I’m with you, I feel like I’m majorly out of the loop with this.
Standups are a short (hopefully) meeting usually done in a software development environment that tells the team what everyone was and is working on amd what issues are blocking them (i.e., blockers)
oh not just software. they’re everywhere now. And they last 45 minutes. And only the boss talks. And they’re not standing up.
Our standups seem to turn into half hour marathons every day. It’s awful, no one knows how to parking lot discussions.
Your scrum leader is dropping the ball. Uggh, how frustrating
Look at you with your company willing to pay for scrum leaders. Many companies like to tout “we’re agile” while just slapping some sprints around a waterfall process
This is one reason why standups are traditionally supposed to be done standing up. People have less tolerance for getting sidetracked when they’re standing.

That sure looks like a blocker, though
Can walk right around. Just a few more days. No issues.
Independent Contributor shows up, chainsaws through the tree, then hucks the easily lifted parts onto the shoulder. Then offers some kurt but important advice:
“Like this next time.”
Sometimes, it takes an expert to train people in the moment.
Who’s Kurt Advice? 😆

Whats a blocker?
You know, like uBlock Origin
No blockers yet (but the road ahead is concerning:-P)…
What foreign language is this
Programming, a standup is a daily meeting. Lookup SCRUM if you want the gory details
Oh. With that bit of context stuff makes sense.
Yeah. I got it immediately because I have 3 stand-ups a day 🤮 But my ex wife would have had no clue. It’s easy to forget stuff is an in joke sometimes
Three questions is a stupid format for stand-ups. True waste of time.
Stand ups in general are a true waste of time
Scrum does not teach three questions since 2020. It is not a part of scrum. Oh, and the “daily scrum” was never called “the standup” in scrum
