Scrummy Life

At work there is a process with our IT team called the Scrum. It involves everyone saying everything that needs to get done, figuring out how long each thing will take and how important it is to the business. Once all of that information is ready everyone goes into a meeting room and fights to get their projects done.
I've been avoiding going to those meetings because I like to picture it as a rugby scrum with project files being torn out of hands and tossed across the room. I have a feeling I will someday be disappointed.

Get the WFP tool!

I have been treating my weekends with this same mentality. I make a big long list of everything I need to do and then I figure out which ones are a pain in the keister and which ones are important and try to figure out the overlap. Now since it's a personal thing I'm still having trouble making the things that are a pain seem more important. Even though they likely totally are.

Option A: Wash Cat with Sharp Claws

Option B: Make Delicious Waffles

So the goal going ahead will be to actually remember all the things that need doing and not limit the doing of the things to a single day. Otherwise everything will carry over to the next sprint and then we'll need to expand the team. Ugggg...who came up with the bright idea of being a grown up?
