Jira is agile: do you use Jira and Confluence and consider this one of the main reasons contributing to your agility? Congratulations, you are part of the problem.
Boring Backlog: fixed really hard bug? Implemented complex algorithm or cut processing time from 10 hours to 22 seconds? It doesn’t matter, just pick another thing from backlog. Scrum/backlog promotes code monkeys where good effort isn’t rewarded. Personal efforts don’t matter.
Story points implementation: as long as story is implemented, quality or tech-debt doesn’t matter.
The more ritual and incense-waving you wrap around your work, the more likely it is that someone is going to spend all their time on ritual and incense-waving and none on actually creating value.
Are you questioning the Omnissiah!? The Machine God will not favour your next build!
