Imagine actually going to daily standup, wow

I made a daily meeting invite, and told my team to never show up to it. Lets them show up to work an hour later since I put it in the calendar for 930-10.

My manager marks the daily meeting as mandatory (if you don't attend you must send your daily update before to the team chat).

And he exploits them as follows:

  1. A way to guarantee that all team members will be available until that time.
  2. A way to push team members to keep up with schedule/hint that new tasks shouldn't take long (AKA status meeting).
  3. A time to say what team members didn't do good.

Is it considered to be a good approach?
