Scrum that's not adapted to your needs isn't scrum.

The one thing scrum has succeeded in is creating an industry of people that get paid to do little work, which is fine as long as they don't take themselves seriously enough to get in the way. Bullshit jobs are a needed feature of a well run economy.

The only thing that keeps me sane while working for capitalists is that I get paid to do a lot of nothing

The whole one size fits all approach to projects is such a waste of time. You spend just as much maintaining it as you do actual work. Hive and those apps can kiss my derriere.

Exactly, even when applied correctly, many projects will just not work with scrum. Managers that sponsor ONE approach have already failed....
