At work I am giving a part of a presentation to a high-level executive. The feedback I keep getting is that I need to give less technical detail (dumb it down). But this is like my third pass doing that...

Eventually my presentation is just going to be "we work did good!"

I hate giving presentations to executives, honestly. I wish someone else would do this. I don't know what this person knows or cares about. I'm so many levels removed from what they do.

@BitBun I had a boss who once said to me: “Always play dumb. It's worth it.”

I didn't follow her advice, tried to be competent and all I got was a meeting on Monday with somebody else's client outside my working hours. FML.
