The scrum master decides the work? Why has agile become such a mess?
It’s been a while, I actually forgot a bit about the process, and I got it mixed up. Point being: tasks without a clear business driver were regularly brought into the sprint by devs.
Other people choose their own tasks off the backlog. I chose my own and got a talking to. :)
Our lead says that all work must come from the scrum master but in practice it is selectively enforced.
