Day 3 of Schroedingers outage. @virginmedia sends texts telling me the engineer is both on their way and has been there today, while their website tells me there's nothing wrong. Connection still pretty much dead here and communications about it are pathetic.
@virginmedia Broadband fee has risen nearly 100% in 7 years and what for exactly? Quality and fault handling has been abysmal.
Hi @sainsburys getting fed up of orders delivered from your Haringey store arriving with the crisps smashed up because they routinely pack heavy bottles in the same crate. Spoke on the phone to store just now but they just speak in cliches and no connection to issue.
Today 2 bags were burst open and left broken crisps on my floors and over crates underneath. Driver said many customers have same issue and he feeds this back but those who do the packing dont care.

Stand-ups needn't be where work and team morale go to die.

Having looked at all perspectives, what do you want to do?
Now what...
... might this all mean?
... will I do, change or modify for the future?
... will be the impact of what I have learned?
... gift would I like to give to my team, org, self?
