So today we established the tolerance of the Banquet team on how many drastic changes one group can make to ONE room setup before it makes *everyone* crazy... That answer is 9

The first change to the table set up = no problem (which I think was add table and chairs for 200)
The second change = also no problem (which I think was reduce tables and chairs by 100)
The third change= tolerated (which was adding BACK the 100 and adding 50)
The fourth/fifth/sixth= frustrated (which I think rotated the tables then reduced them to 50 then re-added them all back)
The seventh/eighth/ninth= code red... (which part was removing every other chair then adding it back etc)

and sadly there was *still* an hour before the meeting was to start when I left.. They may be on change 10/11/12 by now... Add that to the other 30+ rooms that needed attention today- the team was frazzled to say the least..
