AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'So the Ammonia Factory at Muddy River Bay is now operating. Of course, now the hard slog of building it, and the excitement of commissioning it, are over, everyone expects life will be quieter. But there's always something to bother a manager such as getting sales up to match minimum production, and the behaviour of the people close to the manager, and the enterprising nature of junior engineers, and what comes from the organisation levels above him, all causing a mix of good results and headaches.

And that's some of what being a manager is all about. Yes, that's some of it, but the work around a manager causes other events to occur, so there's no end to what circumstances can throw up' (publication blurb).
