Odd. As an Ada programmer, you should find this situation
pleasing. It's the corporate version of Ada's strong type
checking and syntax. Just as Ada is intended to be useful

writer, the bureaucratic nature of the organization is meant
to support the management of a large number of employees. It
favors ability to manage over employee convenience.
