I would pretty much quit if someone came and interrupted me in person twice a day to ask me how things are going? In my decade of experience i’ve usually seen new PMs be extremely anxious and paranoid about timelines. As they get more experience and they see more projects that go off the rails they understand the tech speak a bit and have laxer expectations. Sure we’ll be 2 weeks late, but in the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t matter. Don’t burn your engineers for a dumb deadline that makes little difference to the customer. There’s a reason we have kanban boards and sprint boards. How are things going? Look at the board. The tickets are updated. Any blockers? Read the slack channel. Only interrupt in person when shit is really on fire. But even for that, the monitoring software will page the opslead.
