Is it me or doing forty minutes standup meetings every morning is a complete waste of everyone's time? I don't need to explain what is Kubernetes and how to install it to my boss...

Sounds like management problem not a meeting problem. Daily stand-up can be very good for planning the day's work

@codetinkery but we're two developers... everything is tracked on JIRA in a sprint, everything is there to see what needs to be done...... so I don't see the need of a standup. If only it was just to say what we're doing and not how we do it ,it'd be fine.

40 minutes for two developers seems way too long, should be more like 4 ;-) As you say, "how" has no place in a standup.

Standup also isn't the place to explain how to install something... It should basically be a quick and dirty "got this done, working on this, having problems with this, still on track"

Augh I hate long standups.

got rid of scrum , now work with no framework but common sense and responsible adults and we seem to be getting far more done than what got done in the past 18 months

Standups suck. They always get stuck at someone bulshiting for 10 minutes

They are called standup meetings for a reason, and it is they do not take a long time. At work our standup meetings are max 15 minutes 😔
