I'd take the hour over 75% of my time going towards planning meetings to try and calculate if we can meet target deadlines.

Planning meetings don't actually produce tasks either. Just round table gut checks.

Its been going on for a month... I'm looked at like the crazy person for non-stop repeating to let the engineers break down the work and do estimates and then the project people can do velocity calculations after every sprint to get the answers they want. We'd have 4 weeks of data if they would just fuck off.
