So, today, my agency had it's big quarterly/year end meeting. All the big wigs were there which meant all the assistants were going bananas. Of course, yours truly gets the task of going to the conference room to assist. We had a Mac Pro set up as they were using two portable projectors and it was the only machine we had with dual VGA ports.

In any event, I get the call that there's a "problem" with one of the projectors. I get up to the conference room and the assistant to the president of the agency says "see...the image is messed up" (and by messed up, she meant the image was skewed about 1/8 of an inch to the left.)

I proceed to spend the next hour trying to adjust the image the only way I can...putting post-its under the one leg until the image straightened. She kept telling me that it wasn't right no matter what I did. On top of that...every time I added a note, the leg on the projector would collapse which caused it to re adjust the keystoning. After fighting with it...the president walks in and starts joking with me about messing it up. I tell him to pipe down (yes...I have a set of balls as big as coconuts) and that it was his assistant's fault. (All jokingly, of course)

Eventually, the meeting is getting closer to starting and the president tells me everything looks good...but his assistant still insists the image is askew. Now, she's arguing with her boss in front of a room of execs...I politely excused myself and returned to my desk. She called me back 3 more times (multiple meetings) and still has the same complaint. A half of a pad of post-its later, she is satisfied...that is...until the computer started making a "mysterious noise."

Kill...me...now.

tl;dr post-its fix an askew projector image, but not an assistant arguing with the president of the company in front of 1/3 of the employees.

edit: The "mysterious noise" was the video conference system notifying when other users were leaving and joining. I muted the sounds and that "fixed it" until the next meeting when the sounds magically re-enabled themselves. >. <
