The organizers had lined up several guest speakers including me, and they said that I would have a voice in the seminar. After receiving the invitation, I was excited because my presentation seemed to serve the purpose. I was looking forward to my presentation in the worst way. However, I ended up disappointed today. Even though I took them at their word, the organizers accidentally forgot my turn and skipped my presentation. In addition, they copped out of apologizing to me, which made me lose my cool.
