      I worked for an insect farm for over a year. It was run by unremarkable capitalists of mediocre intelligence who wouldn't accept any assertion that there was room for improvement.

      Because they failed so hard at growing a certain species of grub, we had to truck in our stock of that species from another company so we could resell it. They must have had pretty bad containment procedures because crickets got in with the grubs. But the crickets were fine in transit.
