It's an interesting premise, but it would be too easy to sabotage the manager.
I dont' think it would be easy to sabotage. Maybe at first, but after the first few systems were vandalized, the managing computer would be locked in an air conditioned vault and be completely inaccessible to employees. So much for the bucket of water idea.
The story has progressed a lot since this thread started. I've read most if it, but I'll reserve the rest of my comments until I finish reading it.
