Fricking unfair

The one thing i hate most is to be unfairly blamed when it wasn't my fricking fault in the first place. I will admit to the parts where i did wrong or screw up. But i fricking hate it when i get accused of something i DID NOT feel was wrong on my part.

No one does a powerpoint slide presentation without going thru the whole slide show once. Alright there was a presentation today so i had all the materials ready, i practiced going thru the slide presentation made sure i knew how to repeat the video clips just in case they wanted to replay the clips again and still move on to the other slides smoothly. But when it the time came for my boss to do the presentation she said she wanted to do the clicking of the slides on her own so i said ok fine. And what happens? She didn't know how to click on the link to run the video clips. She screwed up on the files and i get blamed.

Oh and get this those clips used today were used in another presentation before and they didn't work for her and she didn't tell me. I had made sure on the morning for that big presentation i had gone into the board room tested it out on the laptop not once but twice just to make sure it works. I even had the GM's secretary and the merchandising manager's secretary there and i even played the slide show for them. I had a print out of all the slides and went thru them one by one just to make sure it didn't have missing slides. Well she said there were and i am thinking there is no way in hell that could have happened and the one thing i hated most is to be accused of something i didn't do wrong.

Admittedly i said sorry that i overlooked on the sound system this afternoon and i knew i had screwed up on that one and i did apologise to my boss for it. But i sure as hell didn't like the fact that she screwed up cos she didn't know how to work the slide presentations and i mean come on, even i would have screwed up if i hadn't gone thru the slides once thru let alone her.

Again, i HATE IT when i get blamed for something that wasn't my fricking fault.
