Belinda's House Of Assembly Lines

It is standard automotive industry practice for chief executive officers to sit around doing nothing while some bloke down on the assembly line figures out how the company should be managed. Look no further than Henry Ford, who many people have been conned into believing was the guy who came up with that assembly line thing. In fact, Henry and a number of his company's directors were sitting in his office, shooting rubber bands at each other, when Henry said, "I wish, as head of this company, I had the freedom to propose ways to make it more efficient, to make it a world leader in auto production." http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1144360211260&call_pageid=968867505381&col=969048872038 [Proofreader's note: this article was edited for spelling and typos on April 9, 2006]
