Per the HR employee evaluation website, on average I spend 25% of my week in technical or project management meetings. I spend another 20% trying to translate waterfall designs and deadlines provided by customers into tiny chunk tasks, each representing "a day's work", while I have to learn a new project management tool (or new interface to an old tool) every six months. I actually accomplish something productive for about 20 hours a week, all said and done.

Because we're "Agile"...
