1. Y'all should READ this thing - I mean the whole article . .

From the posted article:

"Nothing we learned in our investigation suggests that the field is, as a general matter, unsafe or prone to catastrophic failure," it said.

The lawyers reached a different conclusion about Woollam, generally supporting the complaints. It blamed Woollam and his "dictatorial" style, which led workers to call his department his "kingdom" and Woollam himself "King Richard."

Contractors also feared they would lose their contracts if their workers complained, the report said.

When a manager for one of the contractors told Woollam that his men were upset about a reduction in staff, Woollam's response, which quickly became legendary among workers, was, "Fire the whole bunch," the report said."
