Vent

I'm too ticked off to think about cheese. And this isn't an interesting vent. Just need to get it off my chest.

We are doing a presentation on Nov. 26 & 28 in Dallas. Me and the other person are going to be at a conference from the 14-21, have Thanksgiving, and then fly out. So we about two working days to finish this. I came up with an outline, got it ok'd by her and my boss. Did about three hours worth of work starting it, and then the other presenter and I divided the content up to expound upon/do the presenting.

Five minutes ago, the other presenter says she has another idea of how to arrange the whole talk, negating the three hours of work I spent so far on the slides and organization. With only two effing days left to actually work on this thing? You have to be kidding.

This is why I prefer to work on my own.

Or you tell her "That's great. Make it happen." And let HER do all the work.

I tried the MTW strategy and it didn't work because the way she reorganized it, it was the topics I'd be speaking on that needed to change.

Anyway, she called an hour after my vent and changed her mind. We are sticking with the original plan. Whew. Maybe she could sense me wanting to rip her head off.

Glad she came to her senses. Maybe it was all the *kicks*

Good for you! I was going to suggest you have Breezy have Smooth pop a cap on her. Whatever that means

Funny how the extra work was all yours and none of it hers.
