- A project of Glam Rock Industries involves making a small concert hall. The contractor pays 40000php and additional 9000php on every week spent on this project. Having considered the materials and equipment cost and the laborers' paycheck, only the project-in-charge and taxes are getting weighed. Workers are not allowed to make any movement unless supervised by the project-in-charge (PIC) so the project stops if the PIC is not around. 3 engineers are referred as project-in-charge by reliable connections and the contractor can only choose one; Firehouse Firm referred CJ, a very strict PIIC who finishes 0.4% of the entire project every hour, but is only available 5 hours daily on weekdays.
