Alarm Clock Disaster

Average: 3.4 (8 votes)

My business partner slept through her alarm and missed our 6:00 AM flight. And she had all the presentation materials with her. I boarded the flight wondering how I was going to present to the clients with no visuals, no handouts, nothing. I actually rehearsed a few jokes in my head. After a series of panicked phone calls, a wild goose chase to find a Kinko’s, and $200 spent on printouts, the clients were none the wiser and the meeting was a success. My partner sent me a bottle of Dom Perignon.
