DU, I have a *graphic* question [View all]
Could you imagine going into a presentation (whether it be a poster board type visual kind or in my case a spreadsheet) having used a Sharpie to correct, add, or remove part of the presentation?
Crossing out a 5 and adding or making it a 6
Using it to draw an arrow you forgot
Adding a line on a flowchart you left out
Aside from the reaction, would you ever consider doing that? Wouldn't you KNOW that it would leap off the page and it would be all anyone notices?
If the member of a team in a time constraint wouldn't SOMONE say "No! Stop!" choosing to let it fly or come up with some plan to explain it or just scrapping the visual. Of course there is also avoiding it by being professional and reviewing the presentation for errors.
As a financial type person I also couldn't imagine walking into a meeting with numbers that aren't up to date let alone 5 months (days in Clustertrump's case) old.
BTW - Sharpie offers an autocorrect of "Sharpiegate" and I think I've only typed that once and it was on my phone not this iPad.
