However, several of the Labors being used in Tokyo, specifically those built by Shinohara Heavy Industries, suddenly activate and go haywire, even while unpiloted. The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's (TMPD) 2nd Special Vehicles Section (SV2) is assigned to help neutralize the malfunctioning Labors, but only the SV2's Division II is on duty around-the-clock (with Division I already on training duties elsewhere).

Hacker:
Don't be absurd, Humphrey.
Humphrey:
There is no reason to change the system which has worked so well in the past.
Hacker:

Ode to a Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning
In the sultry swamp of sweaty pits,
A putrid glob did congeal,
A muculent mound of malodorous green,
Its sickly scent did it unseal.
The sun's blazing wrath did scorch the Earth,
Yet in my fetid hollow it hid,
This loathsome lump of emerald woe,
Like a festering secret amid.
Oh, revolting mass of viscous slime,
Your oozing form doth repulse,
A horrid blob, of rancid hue,
You make my stomach convulse...
*heave, boak*

If you have a specific context in mind, such as a book, a philosophy, or a community practice, please provide more details, and I would be happy to help clarify!"
Sir Humphrey would be proud of that...
To which my first thought would be 'yes that's quite possible, second thought is then why haven't corporate already done it?
So you mr manager are just giving it the ruthless sounding flannel OR you are reducing shareholder value by keeping the onshore staff against business reason. And why would that be the case Mr Lumbergh...
“Teasers are usually rich kids with nothing to do. They cruise around looking for planets that haven’t made interstellar contact yet and buzz them.” “Buzz them?” Arthur began to feel that Ford was enjoying making life difficult for him. “Yeah,” said Ford, “they buzz them. They find some isolated spot with very few people around, then land right by some poor unsuspecting soul whom no one’s ever going to believe and then strut up and down in front of him wearing silly antennas on their head and making beep beep noises.”
