May. 7th, 2015 05:48 pmCompany presentation afternoon. Based on past experiences I knew the MD would ask me for a slide on HR achievements at the last minute. I was prepared for that. I had a lovely slide and I'd even shiftily shoehorned a plug for my Ladies Yay (still not it's real name) organisation event next month.
I was not prepared to be asked to then present this to entire worldwide company with all of seven minutes. O HAI India and New York and London and Manchester.
Thank god I do not have a fear of public speaking. And that I'm having a tolerably good hair day and wearing my favourite work top. (I got applause and a well done from a few staff I don't know that well afterwards too.)
I am now skipping post work drinks and am instead going home as am technically on annual leave now. A weekend of glamping at a wedding in Scotland awaits, once I sort the car out, pack, and steadfastly ignore the election happening today. (I voted Labour! But I am sick of the pundits and talk.)
