“Are you don’t yet? Why aren’t you done yet? Help me update infinite plans that will be outdated in a week. Also, I just promised a bunch of stuff… all that stuff we already promised, I think you can do that faster.”
When I was a dev, I once had a PM with no technical skills that decided he would “learn to program to help catch us up”… He did not succeed.
We do standups twice a week. At worst they run a half hour for my team of about 10 people. Usually we’re done in 15-20 minutes. Please tell me it’s just an absolutely made up joke that you have an hour and 15 minutes of stand up meetings every day. I would shoot myself.

You get focus time?
Also, what the hell is the point in an EOD standup if you’re gonna have another one in zero working minutes?
You block it out and call it something else
Sitting in a meeting right now…
This is such a an accurate comment.
Does a lot happen between an EOD standup, and the morning standup? Pick a lane lol
Well yea, plenty happens between 1700 and 0900. That is why the 15 min standup takes 30 min.
They need to have full calendars so that they look productive. Those meetings are for them, not for you. You still have to attend tho.
Got to hate those meeting where you are marked as optional but you are required to attend.
And the ones where you have to discuss what’s coming up in the next meeting. Meetings about meetings. We call them metameetings.

Don’t worry mate, it is a joke. But judging by the other comments it is closer to reality than a joke for some.
Hey, you are actually double booked for the
nth meeting for annual “Goals” that’s coming up!Too real.
