Reminds me of a funny story..
I was sitting in on a management meeting for a fairly large company because I was presenting the next years technology plan from the IT consulting company I worked for at the time.
I was a bit early so I caught the tail end of the sale department presentation.
Guy says this chart speaks for itself and it showed slightly rising lines, instead of the normal order of older to new he reversed them because sales were actually down slightly and put the dates in a tiny font.
I could not help it, I had my hand over my mouth trying not to laugh out loud. Then someone else took a closer look to see what I was laughing about and started laughing out loud.
I was asked to leave for a while but he was still working there a few months later and my plan was accepted.
