Ah, the corporate nightmare we all know and hate: a "quick" one-hour meeting that turns into a hostage situation. Nothing like a 210-slide saga, packed with walls of text, read word-for-word to truly make you question your life choices. The real innovation here? Transforming simple information into an endurance test. Just send the PDF, let me pretend I’ll read it, and spare us all the suffering.
Yeah. When I worked at Microsoft, I was reprimanded by my manager once for not putting enough words on my slides. “In case someone can’t attend or wants to read the presentation later.” 🤨
I had a prof in college who taught this way. When the equipment failed or something went wonky - anything, even if a slide was in the wrong order or something - he'd panic, flounder, and then it was an "independent study" day. Another student and I drove over an hour to get to class so we *really* *really* hated this.
Death by Powerpoint is a real thing.
This is also, literally, every single presentation in the U.S. military
Literally not the way to use PowerPoint. Ever.

Isn't that what speaker notes are for though? :v
“This meeting could’ve been a (very long) email”
Yay, 17s per slide.....
As you can see on the slide....
Someone please wake me up when it's over

Certain groups of people like to see your workings too, so the slides are crammed with “how I got to these statements”.
Oh, gosh nooo 😱😱😭!!!
