kyou wa atarashii kaisha de hajimete no asakai ga arimashita. senpai to buchou ga ita node, sukoshi kinchou shimashita. demo, owatta ato wa anshin shimashita.

Today I had my first morning standup at my new company. My senior coworker and the manager were there, so I was a little nervous. But after it ended, I felt relieved.

asakai de wa, mittsu no koto o hanashimasu. mazu, kinou yatta koto to kyou yaru koto o hanashimasu. kono futatsu wa mijikakute ii desu. mittsume wa komatte iru koto desu.

In the standup, we talk about three things. First, we talk about what we did yesterday and what we will do today. These two can be short. The third is what we are stuck on.

watashi wa memo o mite, "kinou wa roguin kinou no koodo o kakimashita. kyou wa tesuto o kakimasu" to iimashita.

Looking at my notes, I said, "Yesterday I wrote the code for the login feature. Today I will write tests."

senpai ga "nanika komatte iru koto wa arimasu ka" to kikimashita. "kankyou kouchiku de tsumazuite imasu" to kotaeru to, shinsetsu ni oshiete kuremashita.

A senior coworker asked, "Is there anything you're stuck on?" When I answered, "I'm stuck on environment setup," they kindly helped me.
