Making Daily Standups .... Interesting: Day 11

Here's a viking quote to go along with today's hat:
Never walk away from home ahead of your axe and sword. You can't feel a battle in your bones or foresee a fight.
- The Havamal

We had retrospective yesterday so no standup. If you look at the wall, you can get a sneak peek at a couple of the hats coming up.

Making Daily Standups .... Interesting: Day 7

It looks like someone was getting desperate for a hat entry.

No - he didn't wear this on his head for the entire standup.

Making Daily Standups .... Interesting: Day 6

A Viking hat with Germany's national colors is today's entry into the standup hat contest.

It is kinda hard to take him seriously with these ridiculous looking hats, but it does make it more interesting.

Standups have become better recently, but I still think that there could be more improvement that would make standup meaningful for those involved.

Making Daily Standups .... Interesting: Day 2

Day 2 of the hat contest sees a milder, less 'anxious' headgear piece.

 Rajastan hat (Indian)
Apparently, this is some form of tribal headgear from the Indian state of Rajasthan.

Making Daily Standups .... Interesting: Day 1

UPDATE: added additional photo

Our new Scrum Master has promised to wear any headgear that we bring in for the daily standup. Here is the first hat that he had to wear:

Raggedy Ann - complete with bangs and pigtails

He has promised to do this for a couple of weeks, two sprints I believe, and the reward is a gift certificate for a local restaurant. It should be interesting as the weeks go on to see what members of the team can come up with for him to wear.
