    Can everyone see my screen? Okay good. I put literal paragraphs of stuff into my presentation, and I’m going to read it all to you verbatim. This is much better than email.

    Now I can put presentation skills on my resume.

      I’m the first person to say “this meeting should’ve been an email”, but often it’s because I’m slated as “required” on something I’d otherwise be a Cc on.

      The reason for those, though, is because people don’t read their emails. Especially not the long winded verbose ones that actually explain things.

      You want to tell people things, put it in an email. If you want them to understand it, call a meeting.

      I had a week long training course, I read the slides the night before to make sure I would absorb the material well and have a decent shot at passing the test without much anxiety… MF spent a week reading the slides to me that I read the night before…
