Dave is a project manager having a difficult day dealing with changing deadlines and problems arising. In the morning, the board cuts the software deadline in half despite the project being on track. At meetings, Dave has to tell his development team the new deadline is impossible to meet. Throughout the day, Dave receives many new emails and calls while issues continue to arise, including the development team reporting new problems. By the end of the day, Dave is stressed and shares foul words with everyone before leaving the office.
