I’ve started to see Jira as some kind of lovecraftian universe. As long as you’re on the surface level you will see some oddities, tickets disappearing, people updating things wrong, labels that make no sense, statistics that point nowhere. But if you start to delve into the mysteries, build your own search queries, craft your own boards, soon enough you’ll be met with things no human mind is meant to comprehend. You’ll be the witness of signs of whatever forgotten eldritch deities toil in the deepest recesses of your organisation. And the more you study them, the more you learn about what’s in the abyss, the more you lose your sanity.
