KOTOVOD Worker #13: Fruits of Hard Work


On the vast planes of Mars, the harvest season never ends! Especially when it comes to harvesting fruits of hard work, being done by workers of KOTOVOD Learning Factory campus. Although the key to success is hard work around the clock, an experienced manager knows that changing even the smallest detail can sometimes lead to greatest changes.

This fall, thanks to technical modifications suggested by KOTOVOD Optimization Dept., Cotton Pickers are picking cotton from a wider territory than before: not only it boosts production, but helps fighting with excessive reforestation problem, so common on Mars these days. And that's just one of the many improvements, successfully implemented after suggestions from Optimization Dept., where work never stops, day or night. Is this department run by robots? Or maybe there are genetically modified I.L.L.U.M.I.N.A.T.I. operatives at work there? The answer is: it is not impossible! Anyway, the results are exceeding expectations and it's all that matters!
