110 00:13:11.290 00:13:15.360 Casie Aviles: I’ll wait the time for me. I guess

112 00:13:20.130 00:13:20.670 Mustafa Raja: Okay.

113 00:13:20.670 00:13:21.870 Casie Aviles: I’ll just add a few.

114 00:13:34.270 00:13:35.580 Casie Aviles: Hmm, that was

115 00:13:49.120 00:13:54.558 Casie Aviles: okay. So yeah, I think that’s yeah.

116 00:13:55.340 00:13:58.119 Casie Aviles: I think the next thing is, you could also

117 00:13:58.340 00:14:00.219 Casie Aviles: react if you want. I think.

118 00:14:00.670 00:14:01.150 Mustafa Raja: Oh!

119 00:14:01.510 00:14:02.850 Casie Aviles: But I forgot how.

120 00:14:02.850 00:14:04.330 Mustafa Raja: How do I do that?

121 00:14:07.600 00:14:09.219 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I don’t know, either.

122 00:14:09.490 00:14:14.320 Casie Aviles: Yeah, never mind. There’s just 2 of us. So I guess just talk through the

123 00:14:14.830 00:14:17.500 Casie Aviles: the positives like what you were doing earlier.

124 00:14:18.090 00:14:27.469 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. So I. So I’m this this week I mostly worked on the least lead list builder project. And I feel it’s almost done

125 00:14:28.005 00:14:36.729 Mustafa Raja: just need to get few reviews from Robert, and how he want things to go? Other than that

126 00:14:37.265 00:14:41.939 Mustafa Raja: the tickets I were assigned are pretty much okay and done.

127 00:14:42.320 00:14:49.389 Mustafa Raja: So. It’s in. It’s in pieces. The the project is in pieces. Now we have to piece it together.

128 00:14:49.970 00:14:51.480 Casie Aviles: As a final product.

129 00:14:52.920 00:15:11.767 Mustafa Raja: And yeah. So so the tickets that I was assigned were pretty simple and pretty self explanatory, and the briefing that I needed was given to me when I whenever I asked so so I love the coworkers that I have, and the workload is,

130 00:15:12.970 00:15:15.480 Mustafa Raja: it’s it’s perfectly balanced.

131 00:15:17.130 00:15:19.839 Casie Aviles: Yeah. Glad glad to hear that you feel that way.

132 00:15:20.770 00:15:21.310 Mustafa Raja: Yep.

133 00:15:23.710 00:15:33.310 Casie Aviles: Yeah, I’m not very. I’m not very good at, like, you know, expounding. But yeah, just happy that you feel that way. Yeah. And I guess on my part.

134 00:15:33.933 00:15:38.250 Casie Aviles: yeah, I do think that this is one of like I said, this is one of our

135 00:15:38.600 00:15:47.150 Casie Aviles: better weeks. There was a time where we we faced a slump or like we were, we had really slow progress. And there’s a lot of

136 00:15:47.460 00:15:49.640 Casie Aviles: issues in the past few weeks. Where.

137 00:15:49.740 00:15:52.889 Casie Aviles: like, for example, with the AI agents that

138 00:15:53.000 00:15:56.193 Casie Aviles: we were building, there’s just a lot going on for us. And

139 00:15:56.720 00:16:00.200 Casie Aviles: I think this week we managed to get more on track.

140 00:16:01.585 00:16:01.790 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

141 00:16:01.790 00:16:06.259 Casie Aviles: With, yeah, with the goals that we have in mind. So yeah, it’s nice.

142 00:16:06.260 00:16:06.580 Mustafa Raja: Yep.

143 00:16:06.580 00:16:10.289 Casie Aviles: We’re also be gonna be able to show something on the demo later. So.

144 00:16:11.050 00:16:11.919 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah.

145 00:16:13.493 00:16:17.889 Casie Aviles: For the problems. I think this is just this is also based on

146 00:16:18.010 00:16:28.970 Casie Aviles: what Utama shared with me. Yeah. And it’s also not just the I mean, just the internal work. So this is in general, like with some other clients.

147 00:16:29.928 00:16:36.089 Casie Aviles: So yeah, there, there’s like, you know, a common thing that we face is like with with the tickets.

148 00:16:37.280 00:16:39.470 Casie Aviles: Sometimes, you know, most of the time

149 00:16:39.740 00:16:46.380 Casie Aviles: they they can be outdated or like there’s they’re not very clear. So that’s 1 of yeah.

150 00:16:46.500 00:16:57.960 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, I can understand the tickets can be a little ambiguous, especially especially if someone else was working on it. And then you were assigned them, so you would need some briefing.

151 00:16:58.920 00:17:04.159 Casie Aviles: Yeah, so yeah, nice to hear that. That’s also something you’re

152 00:17:04.280 00:17:08.180 Casie Aviles: that you can relate with. So I guess what we can do here

153 00:17:08.926 00:17:12.250 Casie Aviles: with the team later on is to I don’t know, I guess.

154 00:17:12.829 00:17:16.610 Casie Aviles: Make a standard standardization of the tickets, because

155 00:17:16.720 00:17:19.040 Casie Aviles: I think we do. I’m not sure if you, if you

156 00:17:19.450 00:17:24.039 Casie Aviles: have access to this. But we do have this document. I think this is.

157 00:17:24.780 00:17:29.119 Casie Aviles: we could probably build this more or just follow this.

158 00:17:29.450 00:17:31.800 Casie Aviles: I tried to follow it as much as I can. But

159 00:17:33.190 00:17:40.640 Casie Aviles: yeah, we have. We have the these like, how? How would we define the status like.

160 00:17:40.960 00:17:44.520 Casie Aviles: And also the estimations. I think there’s a yeah. Here’s the story point. So

161 00:17:45.180 00:17:49.169 Casie Aviles: yeah, like, how many hours this is, I can share this.

162 00:17:49.350 00:17:53.190 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah. I’ll take a look. Look at this.

163 00:17:55.150 00:17:59.706 Casie Aviles: But yeah, I mean, that’s 1 of the things that we want to improve on.

164 00:18:00.350 00:18:02.709 Casie Aviles: And then this is just for my case, where

165 00:18:02.910 00:18:05.200 Casie Aviles: there are times where, you know it’s it’s

166 00:18:05.320 00:18:12.160 Casie Aviles: a struggle with the client comes in. It’s a lot of different factors. Like, for example. Sometimes it’s the

167 00:18:12.660 00:18:14.799 Casie Aviles: I guess a time zone and.

168 00:18:15.410 00:18:19.799 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I can relate to this the struggles with communicating with clients.

169 00:18:20.100 00:18:24.410 Casie Aviles: Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean.

170 00:18:25.390 00:18:28.560 Casie Aviles: I guess, yeah, I just try to be as

171 00:18:29.627 00:18:39.772 Casie Aviles: clear as I can with sending emails and stuff. And yeah, there are some constraints like with ours, because one of my clients was just limited to 5 h per week.

172 00:18:40.100 00:18:42.779 Mustafa Raja: Oh, so then, that’s pretty bad, actually.

173 00:18:43.470 00:18:53.720 Casie Aviles: Yeah. And we don’t really have much, you know, time to to just go on a call. So I think we are going to start resolving that next week, so we’ll dedicate like 1 h

174 00:18:54.431 00:18:59.609 Casie Aviles: zoom sessions meeting sessions to get things much done done much quicker.

175 00:19:00.120 00:19:01.700 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that will be good.

176 00:19:03.945 00:19:07.509 Casie Aviles: I think that’s all from from my side.

177 00:19:08.570 00:19:09.380 Casie Aviles: Yeah.

178 00:19:10.070 00:19:17.120 Casie Aviles: So what what do you guys think? Do? Do you have any additional feedback or.

179 00:19:18.380 00:19:21.030 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that’s pretty much it from my side, too.

180 00:19:21.920 00:19:27.589 Mustafa Raja: because I I mostly worked on the list builder thing. And it was pretty simple. I feel so.

181 00:19:28.760 00:19:29.760 Casie Aviles: Okay, cool?

182 00:19:30.908 00:19:36.479 Casie Aviles: Yeah. I guess that’s it for the retro. I tried my best to do what.

183 00:19:36.480 00:19:37.259 Mustafa Raja: He’s really.

184 00:19:37.260 00:19:37.959 Casie Aviles: To do with us.
