loving 8:30am "web meeting" that naturally didn't get off the ground because WebEx. Ten minute delay lol.

And it's for cornerstone career goals and performance management.

My goal is to not have 830 meetings.

Daily ""scrum" phone calls" have degenerated from hot potato passing to QA Engineer yelling at people.

Erry day.

Also we had a nerd dueling banjos chain mail fight. Binary back and forth; I suggest base64. It was done. Then, QR Codes.

I made a magic eye.

Get an email for a canceled (and useless) "standup" which is more like 15+ minutes on a phone being bored listening to offshore people prattle. Get to office.

Everyone had the call anyway.

Bike shedding if we show units, that is, currency, at a POS (hehh) where you can pay in usd but get cad back, and if you show units when setting pricing.
