@s8n it does and what sucks more is nobody has ever watched the scrum lecture or read literally any books so they think a four hour meeting to plan "sprints" without any fucking story cards is normal :neocat: 🔫

@s8n i saw the original XP talk and i've read multiple book on kanban/toyota. :blobcatpensive2: and.. yeah. it's literally just a set size box with a work order on it, you put out the box of "i need fuckin usb-minis" and they fill it up and shove it out the other side.
i guess they found that ultimately its more efficient to order everything in fixed size batches, and just let the line workers figure the shit out.

@icedquinn and everyone has been trained to believe "stand-up meetings" and "round-table meetings" are synonymous.
You know, the other day I told a manufacturing engineer that a "kanban'" is not just a stock location line operators can take shit from, that it's Japanese for "sign" , and that Toyota revolutionized manufacturing with the "Kanban System" by which you take parts from a bin and when the bin is empty you take the sign with the part number to the guy who needs to make more. That's how kanbans improve productivity. Because it's clear where the item goes, when it's run out, and when someone else has already ordered it.
He looked at me like I was retarded and said:
"They take the bin to the stockroom" like that was some kind of meaningful statement.
(when the bin is gone, assemblers sit in front of the rack for 3 hours looking for the missing bin)
