Story Point vs Ideal Hour \u2014 It is a generation gap issue<\/strong>
\nvia Scrum.org Blog by Naveen Kumar Singh<\/p>\n

How much have you scored this year? My parents asked this question twice a year throughout my schooling. When I scored 80%, they reminded my previous scores were better, and when I said 90%, they checked how much Sharma\u2019s son scored. They also reassured themselves with follow up questions \u2014 are you in top 5, top 10, or topper this year?<\/p>\n
