Boss: *reviewing my slides for a talk* "I don't understand any of this from my slides! This talk is bad
Me: Uh... why would the slides be the talk? The slides are just some anchors and an agenda?
Boss: Well yes of course they are, but looking at the slides I don't understand the topic, these are just point form!
@Patch Arcana To be fair - this is a product person trying to manage me and a team of really intense engineers and constantly flailing. But you'd think he'd at least know what a talk is
@silverwizard Then why are they reviewing a slide deck of a technical talk? What context is this talk given in?
@Hypolite Petovan It was a fairly high level talk given within the business. The talk was me to coworkers.
