Just writing this because i’m stressed as fuck and i’m currently having my second sleepless night in a row...

Like i mentioned earlier i have 4 projects on my name. Two are on a real tight deadline, the other two are smaller, more support like issues.

Last week i got asked basically to get about 20 storypoints done in two hours by my Scrum master. Ehh no. Impossible. Wish i could do magic...

Yesterday i had to make a quick hotfix between the two bigger projects. Tried to reject this but had to do this any way. (It was basically the clients fault/content)

Also, f’d it up because there are current changes that are ready for deploy but haven’t been approved yet.

Do i get a f’ckin email this morning about how the progress wasn’t followed and the git permissions aren’t right.

You fucking twat! If i i did have ANY freaking minute in my planning to actually take the time for this damn hotfix this didn’t happen any way! You’re fucking restrictions only make things harder you goddamn motherfucking morron!

    Time to look for something else. The way things are going this can't go on. If you wait they will either boot you or you will get fed up and leave. This situation won't work out.

    Oh yeah it also sounds like they are misusing scrum by being a disorganized mess but calling it iterative. I would guess your daily stand up is really daily status.

    Sounds like a lot of pressure and unrealistic demands. Try to separate yourself from your job. It's not your responsibility if they are so disorganized and nonsensical.

    This company doesn’t have managers because that’s just overhead. Every now and then i wish there where some though!

    @bad-practice go for a personal meeting with your employer right now. Tell him about all your responsibillities and how you are trying to juggle the work of 2-3 people at once and that you want a raise. Make that raise a decent one.

    Should you not get a raise check how much savings you have and just quit that mess.

    I am living through a similar situation. I was working 12 to 18 hours per day to keep up. Got told my contract won't be renewed because my technical skills are too low. I have 6 days left on my contract and now working 8 hours per day.
