Industrial Relations.
A well made PPT. A well organized Presentation. A nice relaxed completion.
Nine giggling peers in the corner. A presentation made to run for forty minutes with no contribution from anyone else. A team of ten, I stood alone.
"and to the last slide" after forty minutes of intricacies into worker-union-management relations.
I finish, announce for "any questions".
None came my way. Then the professor claps. Everyone does too.
Then comes the blow, "Well done presentation, with help from your seniors."
A charge of plagiarism. I could have died a thousand deaths.
Something in me died. I went ballistic.
I asked him about what he meant. He went on, telling us about last years work that he done. I interrupted, categorically stating that the work was mine and I standby whatever comes next.
Life for me is about standing true and I did.
I don't care who he is, what he can. I made it a point, to make him understand everything.
I stand alone...
