Meetings Memes

The spiritual journey of a developer takes an unexpected turn when confronted with the true existential crisis - those never-ending daily standups! 😬 You know you're in trouble when even wise sages are questioning your team's ability to keep a meeting on schedule. That moment when "quick updates" transform into full-blown debugging sessions, feature discussions, and someone's detailed explanation of why their cat interrupted their coding yesterday. The real spiritual enlightenment? Learning to mute yourself and secretly code while nodding occasionally. Namaste, fellow standup survivors! 🧘‍♂️

The classic corporate bait-and-switch! Manager gleefully announces "no more daily standups" like he's bestowing a gift from the heavens, only to reveal the true horror: writing detailed Slack messages every morning instead. The final panels show the developers' brilliant malicious compliance—using ChatGPT to auto-generate those meaningless status updates. This is peak modern workplace evolution: replacing a 15-minute meeting with an hour of typing, then automating away the busywork with AI. The circle of corporate life is complete. The manager thinks he's won, but the devs are playing 4D chess while he's still figuring out how to open Excel.

The daily life of a developer in an "agile" environment that's about as agile as a concrete truck. 100 standups, 100 sprint plannings, 100 backlog refinements, and a 10-hour retro... EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! The One Punch Man parody perfectly captures that moment when your manager thinks all these meetings somehow make you more productive. Meanwhile, your actual coding time has been reduced to those precious 7 minutes between your 2:53 PM and 3:00 PM meetings. Who needs to write code when you can talk about writing code instead?
