    After about a week they make the lowest tiered manager start pulling with the horse for an extra 30c and then that manager quits and eventually the company realizes infinite growth is no longer possible so they sell out to another company.

    Nah, that obvious solution is equally corporate. I cannot tell you how often I’ve had to pull out this question in meetings with software management:

    “It takes a combined orchestra and chorus of 120 people 70 minutes to play Beethoven’s 9th symphony. If we double the number of performers, how long will it take?”

      The funny thing about the “obvious solution” is the whip. Either option is bad.

        But the whip isnt part of either solution. The Problem has also a whip. Or are you arguing, that without the whip they wont be stuck in the mud?

          It’s more that the whip being there is assumed to be necessary at all, I guess.
