Had that once. Never again.

We had meetings with several people about 30min tasks being booked using the wrong category, despite both being part of the same budget. Absolute insanity.

My favorite was getting reamed because you put 30 minutes over the estimated hours on a task.

It made task accounting a nightmare as you'd have to dump hours onto unrelated task whenever something inevitably took longer than expected.
