Hm. Might not be standup that’s the problem. Might be a company culture thing. But only you know that for sure. Good luck op! Disassociation can be a life saver.

Yeah but then I'm up and sitting there like "oh shit, what the hell did I do yesterday?"

Stand ups (as originally described) shouldn't be about what you already did, but what you are going to be working on and if there is a need to collaborate.

Most people got the concept wrong and turned them into mini status meetings.

Yepp, and no one really listens to the others, just trying to remember what you did and make sure no one dumps more work on you.

True. I've worked in pretty small teams with usually 2-4 devs paired, so it kind of worked out as both what we got through, what's next priority, and how we plan to split out that day. Especially if we were light on stories.

This post is creating company culture by its promotion of ditching coworkers and seeking validation through memes. Disassociation is the problem!
