"Shitty standups" happen because in anything like a healthy team, they're a complete waste of time. Things like "I am having a problem solving X" should not be deferred until the next standup, they should be communicated in real time, at the very least to the team lead.
- alexashka 5y agoThis. I'd extend this to the very existence of rigid roles such as 'project manager', 'qa', etc. We've traded the existence of healthy teams and healthy individuals in exchange for predictable insert/delete commands of any team member by the management caste. That this destroys morale and human's natural desire to connect and form lasting bonds doesn't seem to bother the management caste. I guess why would it, it's modelled after master/slave or aristocrat/pleb relationship of the past.
