I have a story to share, hope you find this as funny as I did.
The project architect was on the job site making changes to the project blaming the contractor for not following his drawings. Ironically, the architect's first name is Rong (not kidding). The superintendent brought out the working drawings to show Rong that the building was drawn exactly as he drew it. Rong shot back at the contractor, "How do you expect me to know what the building is going to look like!"

As a fellow architect, I officially disavow this duffus.
