meetings
I think I've figured out why so many work presentations bore the entire room to tears.
I'm giving a presentation this evening - on vegetation management. I could summarise the whole thing in 30 seconds, and end with "Also, check your handouts for more info."
I've been given 10 minutes.
Currently, I am desperately trying to lengthen my presentation any way I know how. To get it to the required 10 minutes, I'm probably going to have to:
1) have a rambling and pointless introduction
2) discuss, in great detail, where the handout is from
3) give them lots of information they don't need to know
4) repeat myself a great deal
Yes, I am deliberately trying to bore the room to tears.
The conversation's happening over at Dreamwidth. Feel free to comment there using OpenID. (
