      I’ve seen all these complaints for the product owner/manager doing nothing and maybe I have different experiences, but the one in my team seems to say least somewhat keep up with what the business wants and what the developers can accomplish. Albeit still just a middle manager that doesn’t do much actual work. The scrum master on the other hand does literally nothing but pretend to act as a bad babysitter for the team and doesn’t provide anything. Can’t truly grasp what he gets paid for other than having a scrum master certificate (presumably writing his name in crayon on it).

        Good product managers are worth their weight in gold. Most aren’t good.

        Good scrum masters are worth their weight in lead.

    This is how I felt when I used to work in insurance. Glad I got out.

    The lie they tell you is that your replaceable. Fuck em, without you they have to work just a bit harder to maintain control…

    This is how my Dad feels after designing switches for smartphones. He’s always proud to say that there’s likely a piece of technology in your hand that he’s designed, but he also hates phones.

    FUCK AUTO CORRECT
