That’s my interpretation, too. “We don’t have the time to go into this right now”

  But that infuriates me - surely investigating a production issue takes priority over stand-up, and I'd actually wonder why the originator didn't bring it up sooner, unless they happened to find it just before the meeting started. Even then I'd probably excuse myself and ensure everyone relevant was involved in at least triaging the issue. I actually don't mind if stand-ups do end up being a more involved discussion providing what's being discussed is relevant to all present, if not, often the best solution is to let those who needn't be involved leave, then continue the same meeting, rather than wait for some unspecified time when people are "offline" (a term that really is especially silly in these days of zoom-only meetings). But there's often this crazy adherence to rules that says particular meetings must follow a set pattern and not go off course or extend themselves beyond an inflexible limit. I've had stand-ups that last 5 minutes and ones that last 45, and it's invariably the latter ones where anything of significant value takes place - and I'd even argue they're the main reason for having such daily meetings.

    You're absolutely right. Sorry I failed to mention that before stand up, I had actually brought it up several times in chat messages the previous night and I also created a User Story/Bug to capture it. I eventually realised that the team "delivery lead" manager was 101% focused on delivering stories for our customer (a manager embedded in the team) and deprioritised/postponed anything not in the sprint objectives.

    How can you have an issue with the term "offline"? It makes perfect sense to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RAMRukKqQg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RAMRukKqQg
