Hi, I just recently started working for a software company and my PO keeps asking us to create a variety of issues. She creates an issue ("[functional] issue name") and asks us to keep that ticket on the backlog and ask us to create a new story whenever we add it to our Sprint Backlog so she can keep track of the tasks on the backlog.
She also requests that whenever we face a blocker we should create a Spike ("[spike] issue name").
I'm not familiar with this way of working but I would love to hear your thoughts on this way of working within Jira. Have you heard of something like this before? Does it make sense?
