Of course it's a standup, its a metaphor these days you don't have to literally stand (otherwise how would a remote standup work? Do you have to insist everyone gets out of their office chairs?).
We used to have huddles at work, but it didn't mean that we were actually nestled closely together for warmth.
- speeder 5y agoYou and the guy below missed my point grossly. What made the meeting not-standup is the fact the meeting is not short. The fact people take time to talk about their daily lives, and other random stuff, means it is not a standup meeting. I mentioned the original standup meeting was standing, because the point of it was force people to want to leave the meeting.
- Closi 5y agoIn that case you didn’t say what you think you said - I think if you read your original post you will probably see how it looks like you are insisting they are done standing. Paraphrasing, you said the reason it’s called a standup is because people are literally standing, to force people to talk quickly. Then you said because of this OPs meeting wasn’t a standup. But appreciate that isn’t what you intended.
