The moderator, a board member to some nameless software firm that I never bothered to learn, should have picked up on the rising swell of chaos that was threatening to overtake the whole damn room, but either he was clueless or he was enjoying watching me squirm.
My bet was on the latter.
He pointed his stubby little finger at a man in hipster glasses, dark, sturdy frames with lenses that were probably made out of cheap plastic instead of prescription glass, and indicated he was next.

The fact that I was thirty-two years old and probably a decade older than the mousy little dude pissed me off. And the fact that it pissed me off made me even more upset. Who the hell got mad for someone using their first name?
Me, apparently, especially when I had bigger things to worry about. The hipster reporter continued, “Do you fear the fallout that’s looming because of your careless comments after the panel? Do you think you’ll face any sort of repercussions from Jackson Axis and their shareholders or board?”
I sighed, and without meaning to, scrubbed my hand down my face.
Jesus. It was going to be a long conference.
