For context, I am a manager at a medium sized enterprise software company, I worked as an engineer for 10+ years and took over managing the team. We have 80+ engineers in the entire org. broken down into smaller teams of 5-10. My team specifically has about 15 engineers broken down into teams of 3-5. We have a very challenging roadmap and often we end up delivering 20-30% of what's planned for the year. One thing that's often asked is how do we estimate, how do we predict when some feature will be done. We are close to 20+ years into the usage of Agile methods, there is the school of thought who prefer to use time based estimates, some try story points and then there is the No Estimates movement. I am trying to see what's considered as a best practice to start something for the team in 2021.

Do you love tech but hate tech interviews with a burning passion? It really rubs my fucking rhubarb the wrong way when I am in a technical interview and the interviewer starts asking me some random assed questions either technical or voodoo doodoo mumbo jumbo personality type questions. I understand they have to ask something in a interview but its the questions in of themselves that they choose that has me hanging the phone up on their hot ear. After years in the industry I have come to the conclusion I am actually no longer employable! I am crankier than bag of cats on their period! Where can i get a job as a programmer where class A assholes can apply? I mean with all this diversity and inclusion woke culture . surely they can include me in their inclusions . Assholes need to eat too, and the garbage cans a slim pickings these days with all the grabbing hands!
