Responding to: ???'s previous message
My friend's company used to have a system where everyone estimated the total project time, the highest estimate was taken, and then the units shifted up one. So, a one day project takes 1 week, a 1 week project takes a month, and a one month project takes a year.

He said it tended to be about right !
