What is the best/worst thing that ever happened to you during a project?

The worst thing that ever happened to me is I had submitted a long brief to our creative department for deliverables. Right before the project started, we hired a brand new creative director who changed the entire brief submission process. Somehow, I was never told. So they never reviewed or prioritized my project and 2 weeks before the deliverables were due I found out.
How about you? What is the worst (or the best!) thing that's ever happened to you during a project? Saving Changes...

We did a major infrastructure project, in conventional delivery model, for a global banking giant with extensive service portfolio in multiple geographies. Result 1 service upgrade in 1 yr.
Then, we re-aligned ourselves and with small amount of innovation, re-thinking, unlearning and re-learning, applied Fusion approach. Result 7 services upgraded in just 4 months; CSI - 100% :-)
