“Soooo… how we looking?”

“Working.”

“Yes I see. About how long do you think this will take?”

“I don’t know.”

“Hmm ok. Just we have a stadium full of people. Let’s do it right but we have to move quickly here.”

“Yes I know.”

“Ok well I will leave you to it and check back in a bit.”

4 minutes later, exact same conversations repeats…

When I was a maintenance manager at a small pulp mill the only answer I would give for "how long will this take?" was "5 days". They never liked that, so I would offer a different answer with the caveat that they couldn't use it against me or I'd stick with rhe 5 day thing for every event in the future.
