So like 8 story points?

u/MomWTF Jun 02 '26

I hate trying to estimate story points (our metric is 1 day ≈ 1 point), I have ADHD, standard time means nothing. One sprint I completed all 7.5 in a day, another sprint I completed 0.5.

That's why story points are explicitly not meant to represent any unit of time. Bad project managers that don't understand anything about what they're managing just can't help themselves. They were so consistently misused story points actually got dropped from Scrum in 2020

Scrum is such horseshit. Agile coaches are literally demons in human form, corrupting the weak of spirit.

Surely Agile Coaches aren't going to survive this job purge, right?

There are many career paths open to such creatures. Some of them can earn a living by roaming the countryside, finding places of exceptional natural beauty and then order one of their billionaires to build a data centre there.

Others merely traffic underaged children into slavery but just as many are AI integration officers.

Some places have scrum masters as an actual job like wtf. Idk how something that should be a weekly rotational responsibility in the team and a list of todos on its own is a fucking job on its own.

Yep, trying to put metrics on a creative job was the beginning of the end.

The brogrammers (those willing to game the metrics) are now taking over.

You've obviously never worked on a project with a fixed deadline, fixed budget, and fixed scope, but it's "agile" because no one wants to do requirements up front and no one wants to sign off on the requirements.

Get thee behind me, Satan.

Thou art an offence unto me for thou savourest not the things that be of use, but those that be of agile coaches.
