Abstract

The article presents the penultimate chapter of the author's book "Life in the Crystal Palace." After more than three years with the company, I decided to leave the Crystal Palace. There was nothing particularly new in this. I had made the grand decision hundreds of times, and so do a great many corporation men. Our reasons for wanting to leave are an old story. We incomplete rebels feel trapped in a labyrinth of benevolence. We feel that somehow we are not fulfilling ourselves. The labyrinth is comfortable, with a row of easy chairs along the way Music by Muzak comes out of the walls.
