“The factory of the future will have only two employees, a man and a dog. The man will be there to feed the dog. The dog will be there to keep the man from touching the equipment.” Warren G Bennis, American scholar.
At The Factory Moustache, there is a dog is called Colin and a man called Humphrey. Humphrey has a moustache, but this is a coincidence. Colin, a Daschund, is clever, lively and courageous to the point of rashness. This not being the future, there are other workers too, whose hard graft and labour produce the miracles for which The Factory Moustache has become famous. These miracles I mention come in all shapes and sizes, and are pumped out of the guts of Process Whore, our most cherished machine, with the impressive regularity of Bloody Flux. Some of these you’ll see on this most special of days, as The Factory Moustache opens its door to the public, showing you the processes behind the products you know so well.
