In 2015, working at a software consultancy. Led a small project, delivered it, client was happy, moved onto the next project, thought nothing more of it.
At the company Christmas party that year (which had clients invited, for reasons I do not know) - that client merrily said to my face "boy, I thought the project was going to fail with a woman in charge, but you sure proved me wrong!"
Apparently I had murder written all over my face, and coworkers who overheard were impressed I didn't deck him.
