Once got a software guy to save £130k a year by telling him this can't be done, cost £120 in overtime and he knew his boss claimed it was impossible at a meeting 2 hrs before. A week later his boss took the credit for it being done as said he had a chance to review it. We both knew the truth but he needed the win more than I did, happy to trade for the cooperation door that it opened as well.
