Had a big presentation at work place today. It was for the procurement of the services of consultants.
To be sure, I was not expecting everything to go plain sailing. The grilling and bullying by tender board members are legendary. A feeling of tension and nervousness is bound to afflict even the not so faint-hearted ones amongst us.
But was I in for a shocker.
Yup. A shocker it was. Debates and arguments ensued. Fortunately, everything went right, towards the end. Well, almost!
Sure, I came out of the meeting room slightly bruised and battered. But, what’s more important is that I achieved my objective.
Back in my room I said my syukur. To unwind, I played music on my PC: Stairway to Heaven, by Led Zeppelin.
Ahh…what a life :-)
