So basically he just had the wrong title? Sounds like a great engineering manager or lead (in a company where that involves less code writing) or something. But his title is an IC role. But if he's spending all day pairing and not writing code then yeah - that manager seems to be correct, that's not his job? Why isn't he taking on any stories?
pairing is taking stories, it’s two people working on one task together.
So then he hasn't been taking zero, "literally zero" stories like the article says.
The article said zero stories according to Jira.
This is, of course, rectifiable in Jira by allowing a ticket to have multiple people assigned to it.
...unless they aren't using Jira and some tool that doesn't allow this.
