   When ABA Technology Ltd. moved one of their divisions to Bangalore, the branch manager in Mumbai decided to transfer those employees who did not wish to go to Bangalore to other local divisions.

   When Madhuri reported to the new job, Narendar Kumar, her new supervisor told her he did not know whether or not he would have a permanent position for her. For three days Madhuri sat and watched other employees do their work. On Friday, Narendar announced that their division had received another big contract and he would brief Madhuri on her new assignment on Monday.
   Madhuri arrived at 9.a.m. on Monday morning and waited anxiously to learn about her new job. Narendar did not arrive until 10.30. He was being briefed on the new contract, he told and would not be able to meet Madhuri before lunch. At 1.30 p.m. Narendar returned to show Madhuri the operation, “we are reworking model 10-D and it only requires changing two spot welds". With this jig, you can turn one out in about three to five minutes. Narendar added, “by the way, you will be quality control supervisor on this job. Just double check these six spots on the blueprint”. He did not write on the blue prints or mark the areas in any way. Madhuri was given no idea how important the checks might be.
   “Please watch me”, said Narendar to Madhuri, taking up the welding torch. “Anyone can do it easily." He repeated the operation five or six times. Madhuri tried it and experienced no difficulty. Neither of them checked their reworked pieces with the blue print to see if they would pass the quality control check and as a result, Madhuri never checked any pieces after that demonstration. Narendar did not see Madhuri again until Friday.
   During the week several things happened. More than half the motors did not work correctly by the time they reached the final assembly. It could not be determined whether the faulty motors were the result of Madhuri's work or the result of a lack of quality checks. A box of 20 parts had been approved by Madhuri since her initials were on the inspection card, but she had not made the necessary alternations. That was when Narendar found time to talk to Madhuri again.
