Back when Scrum was new I already wondered how it could make sense to make developers be constantly sprinting. I mean it's right there in the word choice. You can't sprint all the time! A sprint is short and fast and then you rest. Making everything in work life be only sprints is madness.


You rest at all the meetings.


The meetings wear me out and make me disengage the rest of the day.


If HN had a way to pin a comment, this would be the one :)


Especially the meetings which are held for the purpose of planning more meetings.


I hope this comment is sarcastic. Nothing is more exhausting than having to hear people that have no clue about anything, i.e. managers, speak.


You're not supposed to pay attention.


Hahahahah i LOL'ed


Heh, I say the same thing nearly every time a meta-discussion on Scrum/sprints is had. As a former sprint-runner, it irritates me to no end that nobody sees a problem with sprinting all the time...
