It’s been long enough that I’ve successfully blocked a lot out, but it all kind of started because she put some terrible bullshit velocity graph up in a staff meeting that made our good weeks look like bad weeks and bad weeks look good. Derailed the whole meeting as people explained project management to a project manager.

Then the next staff meeting she put up the same graph. We explained five better ways to display the data.

All summer long, same graph, every meeting. At some point the relationship died.
