Day three of the offsite about improving remote collaboration. The wifi does not work. The trust falls do.

We spent 45 minutes deciding what to call the recurring meeting. It is called 'the weekly huddle'. We meet daily.

The retro about having too many meetings ran long. We scheduled a follow-up.

Someone said 'let's take this offline' and then scheduled another meeting. That is not what offline means.

My calendar has a meeting called 'Hold'. Nobody knows who scheduled it. Nobody dares delete it. We attend.

The standup is now 40 minutes. We remain standing. Morale is a stress position.

Today's 'quick sync' had a pre-sync. The pre-sync had an agenda-alignment call. I have seen the abyss and it has a calendar invite.
