Your company and mine seem to be very different. We have agile coaches, but they mostly organise cooperation and shoulder check our stakeholders if they try to scope creep some bullshit in.

We also have agile coaches but the way my team uses jira is not at all how its supposed to be used. They are basically forcing it on us and people arent thrilled so the agile coaches are trying to mold it to what they want but they dont want it. Its a whole thing. Im also not a scrum master, Im an engineer pretending to be a scrum master as well as doing my other work and our agile coaches are...clueless for lack of a better word. Jira works great for our other teams. Just not the team Im on.

Yeah, that sucks. Let's hope for better times my friend

Hey thanks I appreciate it. Like I said, just waiting for them to find a real scrum master for my team then I get to do my actual job but at least its pushing me into more of a "people skill" position. Trying to silver lining it haha

The temporary construct is the most durable of them all ๐Ÿ˜”

The dirty secret is there are no SCRUM masters.

There are engineers with SCRUM training. There are project managers with SCRUM training. There are product owners with SCRUM training.

The organization believes in SCRUM master as a discipline. Physics does not.

I'm not sure if I'm being sarcastic or not. Let's call it 80/20.
