Microsoft Powerpoint is Inherently Superior to Google Slides.

Are you ever so disappointed with a person that it hurts your brain?

I sent a teammate an example powerpoint to start making the presentation.

The professor sends two example powerpoints, one exactly the same as mine.

Teammate: "Hey guys do we have like a template for the presentation?"

Me: "Yeah. I sent it a week ago. And the professor sent two. We can use either, but the one I sent makes the most sense. Just open the file, save as, delete everything, and start making the slides."

Teammate: "Hey everyone! Since I didn't know what to do, I made these slides in Google."

This girl graduates with an engineering degree in a week. I would never hire anyone from this University.

(Sidenote, I have very few pet peeves. But oh boy, Google Slides. Anytime I see a Google Slides presentation, I instantly think less of the presentation. This is due to a bias that has developed over several years of seeing very good presentations, and very bad presentations. I have seen a lot of very, very bad Google Slide presentations. I have worked in the program. I hate the interface. It lacks so many options and features. When a teammate suggests to do a Google Slides presentation, I would rather do a Prezi with very spiral and zoom on the planet. No. Just no. </endrant>)
