First time running standup as the temp lead and I blanked on my own team's blockers
#communication#first-job#growth
Covered for my lead while they were out and ran standup for the first time. Froze completely when someone asked what was blocking my own ticket, the one thing I definitely knew the answer to five minutes earlier. Something about being the one asking the questions instead of answering them flipped a switch I didn't expect. Anyone else go blank in the exact moment you're supposed to know the most?

AnonymousAnon The switch from answering to asking is real, you're suddenly tracking everyone's context instead of just your own slice. Happened to me the first time I ran a retro too. Takes maybe two or three times before it stops feeling like stage fright.
