    Everywhere I’ve ever been,

    If it’s lower than “High” or “2”, it’s as good as “backlog” :)

    (There can never be a priority “1” and seldom “Highest”, never “Blocker”, otherwise the CEO gets a text or something.)

      Scrum Master: “Do we really have to make it a blocker?”

      Me: “Uh yeah. It’s blocking these three other tasks.”

      Scrum Master: “But is it really?”

      Me: “Yes.”

      Scrum Master: “Let’s just leave it on in development and we can review the progress tomorrow.”

      Me: “That’s what you said yesterday.”

      Scrum Master: “Alright guys. I’m going to give you back five minutes of your time today.”

        Don’t forget breaking everything up into ever-smaller tasks just so that something, anything, can be closed every day. 😂 Because the process matters, not the work.
