Fuck sprint planning/analysis. Doing quantitative analysis of work in story points estimates, while expecting ownership of grooming the feature, collaborating with respective stakeholders, but being answerable to only those things that are incomplete. You can never beat the system. Efficiency calculation can only be optimised even when completion status is 100%. The progress sounds like a distant reality when the sprint master focuses on criticising the tickets that are not groomed. Just as measuring an engineer's efficiency in hours put in is a stupid metric, so is distributing ownership and analysing it.

Sounds like the sprint master has taken "micromanagement" to a whole new level.

But the structured approach helps in tracking progress and managing workloads effectively by the stakeholders. Ab sab koi rambo nahi hota yaar, kuch kaam chori bhi karte hai. For such people it is needed.

They throw around the word ‘ownership’ like it means something, but at the end of the day, you’re only held accountable for what didn’t get done. You could be killing it with collaboration and grooming, but if one ticket slips, that’s all they see. It’s a system designed to make you feel like you’re always behind.

Sprint planning feels like a damn circus, where the ringmaster only cares about what’s incomplete. Story points, grooming, stakeholder meetings—it’s all a numbers game that never really captures the real work we do. Efficiency metrics are just a fancy way to make us feel like we’re never doing enough, even when we’re busting our asses.

xt, they'll be measuring the exact number of coffee cups consumed per sprint lol

True, I think focusing solely on metrics can overshadow the actual work done.

Let’s be real—measuring efficiency in story points or hours is just plain stupid. You can’t quantify creativity or problem-solving, but they’ll try anyway. It’s all about optics, not about actual progress. And no matter how much you optimize, they’ll always find something to nitpick
