Presentations

[caddyman]

Is there anything quite like a finance presentation in a warm office to help a body catch up on much-needed sleep? I suspect not.

I have just spent an hour sitting with about 50 other drones listening to a not-very-well-presented presentation on public housing debt and how the Government finances it. A rather dry subject at the best of times, but with an ill-prepared presented and a PowerPoint presentation where the slides were inserted in seemingly random order...?

I can't say that I know any more about the specifics now than I did before I went in; I have a reasonable grasp of the generalities, but...

No matter; I'm not about to be tested on it.

Hope I didn't snore.

Are you messing with my head? Too easy! Too easy! I'm seeing two posts with different titles but the same weather-related content. *blink*

I share your cynical distrust of meteorological prediction)... which is why I rarely bother watching them anymore, since it seems they tell me what they think I want to hear or what the computer tells them is likely. I can look up what the computer thinks is likely for myself without the bleating presenter, and still be about as accurate.

Argh, you ARE messing with my head. Now that I've refreshed, the posts are different and my comment makes even less contextual sense than usual.

Woe is me! *Gets more coffee*

Muh ha haaa!

Look into my eyes, not around my eyes, into my eyes...

Nah, sommat odd happened with the post and it picked up the wording from the previous one. Luckily since I'd drafted in Word I was able to paste the inconsequential chatter back in over the top!
