When I first started applying for IT jobs back in the day I would see "Scrum Master" jobs get posted a lot and I would think to myself "why the fuck do they need to hire a rugby player" before I knew what a scrum master actually did.

I once met one of those.

Just the type @Cold_Brew_Enema is talking about. Self-important douche who literally tried holding presentation on what scum master does. On a recreational evening. And we had no choice but sit there and listen because the space we were spending the evening in was the conferencerooms/sauna of their company. Then he had a brilliant idea of making people do airplanes as a "social activity." Ugh. The average age in that room was past 30.

And yes I'm aware I wrote "scum", it was on purpose. It was either that or "cum", but I don't want to slut-shame anyone and imagine any potential cum masters out there being more pleasant to be around than him.

I think a rugby player would be more useful in some situations
