Does it work?

Panda Hat of DOOM

“Your computer may not work, the slide presentation won’t work, the software won’t work, you may have to do something entirely over the phone, someone may change your slides at the last minute.”-Professional Interaction Designer, 3 years of experience

Panda Hat of DOOM

“When you get into a presentation, there are definitely times when you are supposed to have an hour long conversation except the main person we need to talk with is only there for five minutes.”

-Professional Interaction Designer, 4 years of experience

Panda Hat of DOOM

“The night before my presentation, one of the videos in my presentation was not working. I worked with the person in charge of the presentations, for three hours the night before, to try and figure out the issue. However, by the end, I asked her to just leave the presentation and show the video from a different player. This didn’t phase me at all.”-Interaction Design Intern
