Ya know... I sat through way too many of those meetings. I said it then and I will say it now, "This should have been handled with an email".
As for this wee little gem... I know I would probably do exactly the same thing!
The Watergate Hotel
A couple stayed on their honeymoon at the Watergate Hotel in Washington. The bride was worried that the hotel might still be bugged, so of course her new husband started searching the room.
Not to upset his new wife, the man did a thorough job of it. He moved every bit of furniture and checked it, even disassembling and reassembling the TV to check for odd components. Finally, under the rug, he found an odd, thick metal disc screwed into the floor, set into a hollow in the floor. He immediately unscrewed it and out the window it went. His wife, satisfied, hugged him and they had a lovely first night of being wedded.
The morning brought some confusion, though. When they went to check out, the manager was there, asking them many, many questions about their stay and wringing his hands almost pathologically. "How was your stay? Was anything wrong with your stay? Do you have any complaints about the room? Was the breakfast to your liking? How was your service?" The list of questions was mind boggling.
Finally, the husband was beginning to get a little uncomfortable. "What's going on?" he asked. "Why so many questions?"
"Well, sir...." the manager hesitated. "The room below yours complained their chandelier fell on them!"
