When you take off your safety glasses and poke yourself in the eye because you took them off a while ago, and so you go to take them off your head but grab your hair because they're not raised up there either.

When you leave a meeting at 10 pm, and come in the next morning to see everyone wearing the same clothes from yesterday because they didn't go home, you have a pretty good indicator that ship date is near!

hahaha.

this is the point where everyone either starts panicing, or becomes totally cool with everything because at this point if its not going to make it, what's the use in trying so hard?
