    About this ebook

    Anarchy - Episode 2: Toeing the Line - Another Bitesize Read. Men at Work - Episode 2.

    This is a true story, with only the names changed to protect the innocent... and avoid litigation. The incidents and insanity are from and about real people. Mad as it seems.

    Another day in the life of the maintenance crew at Bullers – home of the Inflatable Girlfriend and Marital Aids Party Pack. Nick is the only maintenance fitter who knows how to keep the line running and production up. A position that some people would exploit for a comfortable life bating the bosses... and Nick is no exception.

    Spend a day with the team as they put in another complete hour’s work in between setting up paying work, having the company’s goods away for sale, and bating Badger, the Foreman, and Luigi the OCD Italian fitter who hates them all.

    Another day in the trenches then, so lots of laughs and little work. No change there.
