      <title>Turn Back The Dial</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The coolest thing just happened! I broke the glass cover off of my watch.  At first I thought it was awful, but then I realized that I could turn the hands.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Imagine my joy as I realized that I could make it 11:30 again, and go enjoy another lunch.  Meeting at 3:30? No problem, just turn the hour hand up to 6:00 and go home! I can sleep as long as I want as long as I turn it back to 8:00 when I get to the office. All my work estimates are now &amp;#8220;five minutes&amp;#8221;, and I complete them every time.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;My coworkers have no idea the awesome power that I&amp;#8217;ve gained with this one happy accident.  They ask &amp;#8220;what time is it?&amp;#8221; and I say &amp;#8220;what time would you like it to be.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Of course the above is a total fabrication. Pretending it&amp;#8217;s 6:00pm when it&amp;#8217;s 8:00am isn&amp;#8217;t going to do anybody any good at all, and is likely to make a mess of things for me.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;But people still try to mandate velocity.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Had a pleasant response virtually accomplished, has been resistant reading this &amp;#38; got wiped out by an advert with regard to Shipwreck drops. Been ages since I checked throughout here &amp;#38; left as the large web site modifications lsat summer time made taking part by means of dial-up Painful. I discover the situation is very similar. Sleepless &amp;#38; jumped around through the Etsy discussion boards that did not grab us today&amp;#8230; Spend time hanging out on the community forums &amp;#38; looking into products for sale &amp;#38; not too long ago marketed. There ended up about 197,500 jewelry listings when I opened up my own store (NGHDesigns) in late September. There are gone Three hundred and fifty,Thousand today. I&amp;#8217;ve experienced a few accomplishment &amp;#38; appreciate contributing right now there, however are happy that is not the way we retain the top more than each of our mind. Some retailers do very well right now there, people by no means promote one thing. Even essentially the most incredible goods are generally smothered in the pile in mere moments.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;@Eric:&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I have nothing but sympathy.  I&amp;#8217;ve had this discussion a million times, how velocity is a measurement that comes out of development, not an input that goes into it.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I got that from UncleBob, by the way.  He said in my hearing that when you are trying to measure something, it&amp;#8217;s counter-productive to put pressure on it.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I guess some people aren&amp;#8217;t trying to measure what their team can do.  In that case, a lot of &amp;#8220;agile&amp;#8221; is going to be lost on them.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

	&lt;p&gt;It was double the previous velocity.  Words do not do justice to the stupidity.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
