Joke of the day 4
Firstly, let me thank those who congratulated me on being a proud member of HSBC. They really thought that I've got a job offer at HSBC bank. Some even stopped talking to me for being so boasting about me being a proud member of the bank. Everyone thinks I'm so smart huh? Well, in order to be a member of HSBC, I must be smart enough, otherwise my boss will kicked me out from HSBC. Talking about my boss, she's really smart.
Today she made my day again, or the whole class's day rather. I'm so happy that today is the last day of this course which I'm doing project together with her. Today is our final presentation and she's supposed to be the first presenter or rather she chose to present though the whole group did want. But, since we couldn't help, we let her do intro while my two groupmates are doing the most important part on analysis and the rest focusing on report.Crossing our fingers that everything would go well, we received the first draft of our report from the complier. He overshot the page limit of 12 by 10 pages because we have pages of graphs and charts. Then started the story. She changed it into 12 pages by decreasing margin and squeeze the space. Although we wanna thank her for her efforts, the layout was so ugly that even if Poly/JC students write a report, it would be better than us. Fonts are not consistent. So, I called her and emailed whole group that I'd stick to the first complier version and make further changes based on that. My groupmate, KW, then emailed me back or cheered me for my courage to be brutally open 'cos I put on the email that her layout is super duper ugly. Upon hearing my friend's comment, I felt a bit sorry for being so confrontational. So, after I changed everything, I let her print 'cos she insisted on printing by herself, although I'm scared that she would change it again before printing; which she did for our first case report with 0.5 inches page margin.
Finally came the presentation. Drums start rollig........ We're the second group to present but she didn't turn up until almost end of the presentation although she's the first presenter. But, we didn't care or were even happy if she didn't turn up at all. But, being a smart president of HSBC, she didn't fail to entertain us. While prof asked questions, she started commenting on our findings in a totally different way. Instead of backing up our stand, she shot our group. The whole class was stunned staring at her. Then the presentation ended and it was about to be the break time while she took her laptop and ran to the stage saying that she had something to show which the company passed her as they couldn't attend the presentation today. Acutally the management didn't say they wanted to see our presentation. Even if they did, we should go to their office and present instead of asking them to come down to see. So, when she informed the prof that the management would come, prof's shocked and angry cos we didn't go down there to present. Anyway, they were not free today. Before we felt released, she showed the so-called slides from the management. The whole class even forgot to take a breath when they saw the 83 slides. She claimed that she ran down to the company this morning, the only reason for being late for the presentation, and the slides are from them. There were gigglings and waves of red faces flooding in the whole class. The pictures were very blurred and Prof asked if these pictures were from the management. She said she took these pictures. (Then, why did the management do the slides with her blur pictures which were taken with a handphone camera?) Prof shut up, enjoyed the music and danced along with the tune "I see your true color shining...." (Oh well, Prof saw her true color today) The whole class patiently watched until the end of the song. They thought they could leave until another song came out and we were like "Oh, sh*t! At least 3 more minutes to endure!" Prof came to our group and said "Don't worry. I'm with your group." And, I kindly told the prof that she's taking his other class next term and reminded him to prepare so that he wouldn't commit suicide. Prof thanked me for the warning though his face was so depressed that people might even think he'd run to the Admin building and jump from the top floor immediately. Then my groupmate, who told me that I was so open criticising her report the previous night, went down and told her to stop cos we shot our time limit. She said it's ending soon though obviously not. After few minutes, he lost his patience, switched off the projector and closed the screens, making the whole class laugh. But, our audience was quite nice and they even put a round of applause to her show which claimed to be from the management but her pictures has the date she took and one of our members was obviously on the picture. Yana, I didn't know that you were hired by the company to be their model. clap clap clap......
PS: I'm blogging live in the class while other groups are presenting now. The last group is presenting about Running Lab and one of their recommendations is to change the song and ambience of the store. Prof just aked what song he'd recommend and he said or joked "True color" haha.... the whole class laughed out loud.
Now, you know which HSBC I'm belonged to and who my boss is! Yes, HSBC stands for H.S. Bitching Club. H.S. is her name. haha... we started this club with a group of people who do same project with her (or suffer rather?) bitching about her. I self-proclaim that I'm the PR director of this association and if you want to join HSBC, you're very welcome. But, our requirements are very strict. You must be good at bitching at least about her. If you wanna sign up for HSBC Newsletter, email me. I'll update the breaking news regularly. My blog viewership also went up after I startd this Joke of the day episode.
Anyway, she made my day again! Hope you're also destressed by now!
