I dug up about 8 years of budgeting info last week and and innocently asked a manager if they wanted that plotted against performance. Somebody is going to get a serious ass chewing.

Sneak in before the meeting starts and rotate the chart 180 degrees.
You will then be in the top right corner, albeit upside down.

It will also raise the question why every caption or text has been written in Russian. 
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Read an interesting article/exposé a few years back by a former management consultant who said that just about any change in management works for a little while, though not longer than a year, which is what the management change industry depends on.

I'd agree. In our Company we turn over CEO's about every five years. Every new CEO likes to think he is making a difference by doing a restructure.
When joined 17 years ago, the field staff (half the company) where insourced. Since then they have outsourced, insourced again and now the latest CEO is looking at outsourcing again.
A busy pendulum.. So in five years time.....

There I was sitting at the bar, staring at my drink when a large, trouble-making biker steps up next to me, grabs my drink and gulps it down in one swig. "Well, whatcha' gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly, as I burst into tears." Come on, man," the biker says, "I didn't think you'd CRY. I can't stand to see a man crying."
"This is the worst day of my life," I say. I'm a complete failure. I was late to a meeting and my boss fired me. When I went to the parking lot, I found my car had been stolen and I don't have any insurance. I left my wallet in the cab I took home. I found my wife with another man and then my dog bit me.
"So I came to this bar to work up the courage to put an end to it all. I buy a drink, I drop a capsule in and sit here watching the poison dissolve; then you show up and drink the whole thing! But enough about me, how's your day going?"

Makes me wonder, though ...
... about where they kept the camera around take-off time (between ~20 and ~45 seconds into the video).
Not sure whether mere zooming can achieve this. Or is it mixed with graphics?

Just tried the free version[^] on a small VB project.
The tool ROCKS! Only a couple minor things needed to be cleaned up, and it also puts comments in for where it made important decisions. Simple user interface, it generates a complete folder with solution files and project files (as in, it doesn't just convert VBarf, it actually rebuilds the entire solution for you with C# code.)
Recommended.

And miss out on a perfect opportunity to write some good 'ol VB!? NEVER!
[Edit]
I read that the other way around. The VB has already been written...
I guess someone already took that perfect opportunity

I sincerely hope I will never have to look at a VB program, ever.

The scary thing is, the VB code wasn't compiled with the Strict option (one reason why VB sucks.) I enabled it on a small project and there were probably 100 errors. I also discovered the machinations the previous programmer went through to implement "static" objects. OMG. What a disaster.

I feel for you.
Sixteen years ago I took a contract where they used VB6. I couldn't believe how bad some VB programmers coded.
Fortunately, I haven't looked at a VB program since 2002 when the contract ended, and hopefully never will ever again.
