Literally had a manager say "oh, they're supposed to be for unblocking? I just thought it was an easy way for me to report up the chain on what my team is working on, that's why I told people to just write it on Slack to make it easier for them." ugh
Stand-ups becoming a status report to justify your employment is a common end state of “going agile”. Meeting gets longer, people add more trivial minutiae, nobody wants to look the laggard
