Never understood why other Devs are annoyed most of the time, until i started working with a project manager and having meetings 4 times a week. I can feel my soul leaving my body everyday

4 meetings?

I've got 14 more to get through this week (it's Tuesday night right now) and I'm suppose to get actual work done in there somewhere.

@C0D4 Ha! I feel you
Today was meeting day for me. From 08:00 to 18:00ish including lunch break.

(I don't mind when the topic is interesting, though!)

@Jilano 😂I can't call them all interesting, but necessary.

Let's see tomorrow is mostly meetings.

Scoping out a feature rebuild,it's a busted feature that was rebuilt but only half implemented so it's left to me to work out where it got up to and finish it - mind you it's in production 😂

Then a white boarding session to get a high level overview of all the systems and integrations

Lunch 🙃 I might get it tomorrow

Data gathering meeting after that,

Sweet half hour to myself 😱😱😱

Meeting with legal to review recent changes before deployment and then spend the hour after that trying to make the changes that want before I get to call it a day 😂😂

Thursday, I might actually get some dev work done, couple of small meetings, probably could skip them.

Then Friday afternoon is back to back meetings again.

I'll take 4 meetings a week any week instead of this.

lol i sometimes have more than 4 meetings a day

@C0D4 haha freakin madness dude!

@C0D4 Damn, i still have it easy with 4 a week.

If only you understood what “Agile” meant on your job description.

@Shifu-Hotman the downside to being a dev of many projects, today's (Wednesday now) are for 4 different projects 🤦‍♂️

Word from the exhausted, learn to context shift early and frequently before upping your meeting game to this level.
