   Worst: the guy who apparently doesn't know what shower is. Couldn't even focus on what he was talking about.
   Best: the guy who clearly had a drink before the talk. I don't care if he's an alcoholic, his JMP and the way he presented it was really promising.

   Pretty sure most people take a shot or two before a talk anyways

   Wait until you've been teaching/doing seminars for years. I can't even get a jolt of adrenaline for a talk anymore, much less any nerves. My first conference seminar i was so nervous I almost puked.

   A theory guy ran out of time and didn't finish all slides.

   Is that bad?

   It would be bad (and sign of a dept no one should want to be at) if they did not give him an extra 10-15 mins. Poster did not mention, but if not, bad place.

   Extra 15 mins? Never saw it happen...

   They will give you 3-5min to wrap up, but no more usually.

   That wasn't my experience as a grad student at an MRM. When the 90 minutes are up, that's it, whether you finished all slides or not (and many JMCs and even experienced presenters don't).

   A dude presented work that is already published in 2019, and still did not do a good job.

   OK, this is bad.
   Is it ever OK to use a published paper as a JMP?

   No, it isn't. It says that you have no interesting ongoing work, and no pipeline.

   You must be pretty fiecking ancient if you saw Milton Friedman’s job talk.

   Aggh...that would have been pretty awesome. I don't think they did job talks back then.

    I am not. Can you tell me who in the micro unit at Booth can judge the quality of her work?

    Could you be more specific? Which questions gave her trouble?
