We have an outside group that holds meetings at our facilities (there are some internal people that attend, but the meeting is sponsored by the outside group).  The group has an executive session that is private and a general meeting that is open.  These two sessions must be held in different locations.  Sometimes they need videoconference, sometimes they need speaker phones, sometimes they need TV/VCR to show tapes.  Only 1 of our conference rooms has the ability for all of this but another department has it reserved until 9:30, and I need it starting at 9:00.  Sometimes the meetings are over by noon, and only refreshments need to be served, sometimes they run through the afternoon and we need refreshments AND lunch.  Then, just when I get all of these arrangements set - drum roll, please -- THEY CHANGE THE BLASTED DATE - grrrrrrrrrrrr
