12:15. And you bring your own pizza. Best we can do because budgets been tight after we spent 7 million dollars on the new 3rd party software system. It’s turnkey and will solve all our issues right out of the box though.

My job uses Safe. It’s the bastardized scrum you speak of.

Are points the complexity, effort or time? Yes. No. No. Maybe. Yes. Who knows?

They also sum our teams capacity as if we are interchangeable cogs doing the 1 same simple task.

We have endless meetings. Daily 1hrs. Follow up to the follow up. Meeting to plan meetings. (I wish I was joking on this next on) Planning meetings to plan for the upcoming planning meetings.

It’s chaos.

It’s hell.

I get 5% as much actual work done as I used to. Not even joking. It’s bad.

I prefer the inclusive term of “Scrum Dumpster”. It really works.

That doesn’t sound like giving it 110% and being a team player. We are a family here. We need go getters. We gotta make it happen.
