Yesterday, regarding a presentation I am giving today:
COWORKER: | Should I attend? It’s up to you guys–I have no preference either way. |
ME: | From what I understand, I am doing a 15 minute demonstration of the tool. I think I can handle it myself. Of course, you are welcome to join if you are interested, or just like hearing the sound of my voice (I’m considering presenting using a Scottish accent). By the way, if you do like hearing the sound of my voice, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I do too. |
COWORKER: | As appealing as it sounds to listen to you present in a Scottish brogue, I think I’ll pass this time… |
They don’t what they’re missing!
