Unsure if a joke or not, but in the event of a serious question:

scrum masters are heads of scrum teams, their main purpose is facilitating good work conditions for the workers in the team. This generally means arranging and leading typical scrum meetings, helping workers do their job and shielding them from the Production Owner (the guy that decides what they are to make/deliver during a sprint . (sprints are 2-3 weeks long, where work is done according to a selection done at the start of the sprint and interruptions are kept low during that time.)

I don't want to say that it's an easy roles, but it's more a management type of role than a worker role. In my team the scrum master is also doing development work, since scrum master tasks alone aren't that huge with the way we do things.

Thanks, I figured I was missing some connection.
