How do you do your standups?

Do you do them standing up, sitting down, or remotely? But more importantly, how often and what’s discussed each time?

You don’t have time for standups

✓

You meet every single day

You usually take turns talking through the specific things you’re working on, including blockers.

✓

You meet a few times a week

You discuss on a higher-level what the status is for issues you’re working on, whether you have any blockers, etc.

✓

A bot pings you on Slack each day

You tell the bot what you’re up to, whether you have any blockers, and whatnot.

✓

You do something else

You do things slightly differently. You may leave a comment explaining how you approach standups.
