Right, if *I* ask you, that's your answer.

What is your answer if a corporate VP has a non-negotiable deadline for
a report, and the people crunching the numbers *have* to go home (some of
us have kids, and they need to be picked up at day care, etc...)?

I recommend you update your resume before telling that VP where he can stick
his deadline, for you will likely be gone before the deadline arrives...
