came from retail management into a junior dev role and the meeting culture whiplash was real

Went from managing a retail team to a junior developer role at twenty-nine and expected the technical stuff to be the hard part. The actual adjustment was standups and status updates, nobody in retail ever asked me to narrate my day in fifteen minute increments to five other people. Getting more comfortable with it, but the first month felt like learning a second job on top of the one I was hired for.
