Just get wasted or take some xanax before you give the speech. Better living through chemistry.
>>34216045
Holy fuck how do you even FUNCTION in every day life you fucking autistic
Its a fucking presentation just fucking talk about it and be confident its NOT HARD
>>34216045
Why didn't you just check the syllabus on the website beforehand?
>>34216405

This makes me excessively sad
If it makes you feel better I dropped out and started dating a mild sugar momma

I fucking regret falling for the college meme. I know myself and I know I'm socially retarded and especially unable to give any presentation without stuttering or looking like a fool. Classes start today but the jews at my CC make the 100% refund cutoff yesterday. I can only get 75% back should i decide to drop out. First class in 4 hours, wish me luck robots :(

Normie pls, the only jobs in which you have to do a meeting or presentation and it's not something immediately relevant to the situation is a job which doesn't need to exist. There's literally no job, LITERALLY NONE, where you wouldn't get to do something however the fuck you want versus your boss saying "It has to have 15 slides and have 20 references, and there has to be a 10 page paper"
>>34217920
What the fuck are you trying to say? Obviously in the real world there's no enforcement on how many slides/references something needs, but if you think you can get a good job where you sit alone and you never have to speak to anyone, or tell anyone what you're doing, or have any meetings, or present anything to anyone, you're kidding yourself.
I study computer engineering and have this stupid "communication skills" class I've failed twice
FUCK
I hate it so fucking much
>>34217997
>Thinking anyone would want to hire a "Computer engineer" who can't fucking communicate with a human being
>>34217964
And you're a retarded normie who realizes 90% of jobs don't involve ANY organized interaction with others. More than 95% of jobs don't have "meetings" beyond your boss telling you what's next or meeting with a few people so you're on the same page, they don't require *you* presenting anything, nor your colleagues. Literally a technical reporting class would be more relevant than any speaking class you could come up with.
You're are literally retarded if you think most jobs have a weekly thing where everyone discusses what they're doing. Work isn't high school you stupid nigger where the cool kids sit around the lunch table and pick at the nerds.

Looks like someone has never heard of Scrum or Agile. That's a little embarrassing. Welcome to the real world kiddo, try to stop acting like an expert on things you don't understand.

I know someone who has programmed for years as his job, for both the government and private businesses. Never has he had a single presentation. Never has he been in a presentation. They don't do them, it's a meme.
>>34218336
Then he's doing shit terribly wrong. A central part of developing a product is demoing new functionality to stakeholders or at least to your direct supervisors. If he truly has never had to show anyone what he's working on, then I'd like to figure out how I too can be paid to do nothing and produce nothing without anyone ever checking to see if I'm actually doing my job.
Speeches are easy as shit. Just remember nobody fucking cares about you and are too worried about fucking up themselves.
>>34216045
just did it, you'll be glad
i know you think i'm wrong but i'm not
