How do you choose which number to give a task? We have a similar system where I work but people (of course) tend to number their own tasks higher. We tried to define the priorities but it’s still very subjective (what’s the difference between improving and significantly improving? Depends on your perspective.)
Good question! In our team, we have my director and a product Owner, and with the help of a consultant senior, they help keep priorities fair.
So actually we are managing our priority very well for the moment, because everyone is understanding the timing of each one. Obviously their knowledge of how many time does a task takes help a lot (and I am lucky to have my superiors know how many effort does it takes to get things done in programming).
Maybe once a month you will see that over prioritized tasks, but very quickly everything gets fixed because of our Monday sprints.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse

Thanks for your response!
