I remember the ie6 era very well, and got hired by an agency exclusively for my CSS-fu.
The boss became kind of `jealous` of my skill and the praises i got for it, and would complain that the website did not look perfect on every browser, sending me screenshots of broken sites on his computer.
I spent about 2 months making sure they looked pristine on ALL browsers on ALL platforms, even installing Mandrake Linux and RedHat 7.20 (iirc) just to test them.
No dice, sites still malfunctioning on the boss' pc, who was really happy I couldn't make perfect sites. The more i got obsessed with it the worse the sites would look on his ie6 browser.
After yet another smug comment from him I stormed his office in a rage fueled raid and i ran to his pc shouting that this is IMPOSSIBLE, grabbed his mouse and clicked on the "?" menu and About.
He was using some obscure chinese aternative modded version of ie6 (iirc UC Browser), probably installed just to complicate my life.
tl;dr: vaffanculo, Marco.
