Why do you care if everyone starts work around the same time? And why in the name of DOG do you think that a meeting is the best way to enforce that?<p>You were doing so well until you didn&#x27;t say &quot;so we got rid of them, end of post. Catch us next time&quot;

I&#x27;ve worked at two places that had &#x27;Slack standups&#x27; in the morning. These don&#x27;t really work for me because often I am &#x27;swapped out&#x27; with whatever I was thinking about in the evening and I found it a distraction to write up exactly what I was up to and was planning to do.<p>I switched to filling these out when I leave work instead of when I start so I have something to remind me of what I was working on and what I need to do next. I haven&#x27;t once gotten a complaint.
