Most managers love to repeat "saying it's not my job is terrible attitude" while assigning unreasonable targets and stuffing items in the Sprint to the extent that even sneezing hard will make you overrun your deadline. So I am expected to deal with non prioritized work with a smile so that I have to steal from time set aside for my family in order to make the sprint target? How is that not bad mentality?



Yes, you are expected to deliver the message to García without question or complaint. Managers love initiative and self-reliance, but only in service to faithfully obeying their commands.
