1 hour is long as hell. wtf are you going to talk about for an hour?

but 15-30 makes sense. Check-in, air grievances, get feedback, etc. If there is nothing to discuss then do the "how 'bout those Patriots?" watercooler shit for 10 min and then get back to work.

same idea with standups. they're good, but you don't need them every day, and they don't need to be more than 20 minutes. regular touchpoints make sense, but unless you need to be on it everyday they're just burning daylight
