So, I'm both a student and a project manager at my university, and the meeting was scheduled for Monday during a class trough zoom. Now the professor is texting me and saying that THE CLIENT IS COMING. IN FACE.

I'm currently sitting in class wearing combat boots, camouflage pants, a black T-shirt, a dog tag with a guitarist's autograph, and an orthopedic knee brace that looks like a kneepad and a tighrig. I don't even know what to change into, the meeting is in 20 minutes, and the dress code is formal business

The client comes in person, the professor is in trousers and shirt, the project manager looks like a call of duty operator. I have no idea what to do and why they didn't tell me yesterday that my plans were changing. I always look like this at university. Fuck it í guess

Give notice on Sunday evening that you're coming in person: ❌❌❌ Surprise with a 30-minute notice: ✔️✔️✔️

TL;DR: the client comes to a meeting in person, I'm the manager and I look like a character from CoD

UPDATE: the customer joked that I was a general
