Reminds me of a 'story' of a max weight VH registered B737-200
"ATC: can you accept FL370?"
"Capt: Affirm"
"ATC: Roger, climb to FL370, report maintaining"
Capt dials back ZFW in the box, a/c wobbles to FL368
"F/O: Tell him we can't make FL370 and get us back
down to 35 or I'll punch your lights out"
"Capt: I'll have your bars for this, this is a mutiny"....
edit: apparently the aerobridge scene was something to behold..
