Blockers Memes

The daily standup was supposed to start 59 minutes ago, but you're trapped in purgatory waiting for your turn to discuss blockers. Meanwhile, the Product Owner decided NOW is the perfect time to disappear on a 3-week European vacation. Classic. The beauty here is the consultant mindset kicking in: instead of rage-quitting or sending passive-aggressive Slack messages, you're just mentally converting wasted time into billable hours. That 59-minute wait? Cha-ching. The PO's entire vacation while critical decisions are blocked? Double cha-ching. When you're charging by the hour, suddenly every dysfunctional meeting becomes a revenue stream. The dog staring into the sunset perfectly captures that zen state of acceptance you reach when you realize your hourly rate is the only thing keeping you sane during Agile theater.
