In a fairly recent former life, I managed a chemical plant. The personnel issues were always the worst part of my job. Repairing equipment such as pumps, tanks, lines, motors
etc. is a matter of time and money. You can fix mechanical problems and they pretty much go away, and the little molecules do what they're supposed to do if you add the right amounts of the right stuff in the right order.
Would that people were as predictable as chemicals and their problems as easy to repair as a malfunctioning level indicator. I can relate, somewhat, to your problems. Ride and lean on your faith.
