Broooo this was so painful to watch 😂😂😢 My old team had a Jared. He said and did whatever he wanted and no one said shit to him because he built a large part of the codebase. Lmao

Meetings like this are one of the reasons why I chose to retire early. Until I discovered these videos a short while ago, I’d managed to excise the hell of Jira, Pivitol and unproductive stand-up calls, from my mind.

We can only be Jared if we are the best at what we do.

I AM Jared. All Jared leave your Jira tickets below

Into the jaredverse

For those wondering why Agile teams use "story points" and not "days", it's because they are not a unit of _time_ but a unit of _complexity_ They transate to time when the task is assigned, proportionally to the assignee's velocity. Tasks are evaluated in terms of story points _before_ they're assigned, and depending on their SP value they could get assigned to one member or another. It's a false equivalence to think 1 SP = 1 fixed amount of time, so e.g. if 5 SP translate to 5 days for Alice, they might translate to 30 days or *Infinify* days for Bob because he's a junior dev that simply can't tackle tasks that complex. It's not a perfect system _at all_ IMO, as many teams just appoints a fixed amount of "workable" story points per sprint, while things are way more nuanced. So flatly applying what you've learnt in your "Agile Scrum Master Advanced Proactive Course" might just not cut it, and needs to be adapted. After all, adaptation is the core of the Agile manifesto.

Alternative: write better jira tickets with better descriptions and let people assign themselves which tasks they are capable of completing. When people read those tickets they will value if they might have the level required to do such tasks.

​@KnowThings101 A story point refers to how complicated the task is (1 Sp=making a sandwich, 1 million sp= building a nuclear reactor). They are then put to time in sprints (a day) and every sprint has a number of story points that can be completed per day (you can do less if what you do is complex). Imo, agile is a poor methodology for completing tasks as it is the definition of shifting goalposts.

Jared is my hero 😂 I love this saga

As a security professional, I often have to tell the Jareds and Cindys that I don't care care about their tickets, sprint, or story points. From my perspective I often need them to fix vulns before any other work continues. Would love to see the developers perspective on how the security process plays out as I do feel guilty telling people to drop everything

@rcslyman8929

26 күн бұрын

As BOTG, stop putting 600 machines into the same ticket. On a similar note, stop listing the same machine 6 different times for each individual vulnerability, in the same ticket. Or, and hear me out here... how about creating a CSV file of all machines subject to an individual vulnerability and attach that to the ticket, so we can just adapt a PS script to push the fix out and not have to spend an hour or so sorting out the systems and their fixes. Obviously, if you already do this for your team, you are a gem amongst security professionals.

To be fair to the Jareds, they don't care about any of that, either.

12:09 jared was super smart to become a shareholder. Especially doing all that work. Poor anthony needs a piece too.

I’m 100% all of this business jargon was created by people who never worked in any industry, to train people who have never worked in industry, creating a need to train more people in the jargon (they own those companies), which then bogs down the whole system, creating a “need” for more training and certifications. It all works because CEOs and board members rightly love to see a certification and high speed lingo, only to not realize that such conversation is entirely unhelpful. Seriously, why translate a time estimate to some arbitrary value like story points or t-shirt sizes for any reason other than to shun those that didn’t pay to learn them? Even if you can’t talk in time estimates due to differently performing employees, you can just call it easy, medium, hard. Level 1,2,3,etc.. literally any method to describe the difficulty of a task that a common person will understand without weird jargon.

What's even more ironic is that when you take your Agile training, you suddenly realize that all they talk about is how to handle JavaScript projects and the whole training revolves around that. When you mention this, all you get are blank stares.

i just love these

I love that Cindy has this annoying voice and is always sooo upbeat 😂 grrr

This stuff is golden😂😂😂😂😂

The reason you dont use days is because developers are terrible at estimating. It also helps stop management saying "you think it will take 14 says, but i think it will be 4 days".

i still remember the first time i was confronted with "story points" ... i never asked what they were, so i decided: 1 = half a day, 3 = until next day's lunch, 5 = 2 days, and so on. So, after years of this bs, i still give points based on that scale, no matter what.

That end of season 1 cliffhanger!

Loved it

Jared is the greybeard backend guy they’ve tried to fire 3 times and ended up rehiring at twice the salary each time because he does the work of 5 senior devs and is the only one who understands half the critical paths in the code, including the ones important for compliance. Jared can use the CEOs new trampoline if Jared wants to.

2:22 i would just be making a comment being like,"dang, why yall kick out cuz craig like that then?"

this is gold

Yup i need grumpy jared asmr 😂

I like Jared and want someone like him at work, cool guy and i think, as junior developer, can learn much from him.

I need a Jira ticket to understand hard hard this hits.

These are hysterical. Jared is the perfect character for when us devs don't care and have a f-u money fund. I know its shorts, but Jared really should have got signed paperwork for being a shareholder before doing anything with the website. haha
