I used to just inwardly scream in despair at the uselessness of the senior management and many of the developers...
In one particularly awful meeting, my co-manager, another Brit (she was brilliant), saw that I was on the point of meltdown with anger and passed me a note, which read:

Never a truer word was said etc. etc.
