This is so accurate lol.

I would love one that is pain driven development. Because the only thing that actually gets done is triage.

That's what the three "code" blocks in Teams are for, right?

Oh, no, those 40 hours a week are for meetings. You’re still expected to get your work done.

Its better than Demo driven development.

Where you spend a sprint building things out and working closely with the client, only for them to say that its all wrong and it needs to be this way during the demo.

Is the deputy PO. She is recently promoted and doesn't understand the concept of agile development. It is frustrating but she is working on that fault.

I mean, assuming the sprint was reasonable, 2-4 weeks, then I am pretty sure you described an agile workflow, you delivered quickly, showed it to the customer and got fast feedback on what's wrong.

Ofc it could be that those were things that could have been caught earlier by asking some questions of the customer, but without that information I would say your description of what happened matches agile.

Don't forget about meta-meetings to describe why having more meetings somehow has not resulted in greater levels of productivity.

Not joking btw, I just did that yesterday.

"Retrospective"

Just make sure to never write minutes so you basically start from scratch every time.
