  • Number of days when pairing occurred: 5
  • Number of hours spent pairing: ~37
  • Number of stand-ups: 5
  • Time spent in stand ups (week): ~ 50 minutes
  • Brown Bag Lunch: 90 minutes
  • Emails received within project team: 3
  • Emails received from client: 1
  • Skills Worked On: HTML5, CSS3, Rails, Backbone.JS
  • Times astounded by my pair’s refactoring skills: 2
