Answer to Question 1

Especially for lower level supervisory jobs, employees did not consider that the pay was worth the work. Under the promote-from-within policy, the probability that any supervisor would be promoted to the next level up is significantly higher. This means that they have an incentive not only to do their job competently but to make themselves noticed for promotion to the next better job. They are working as much for the pay in their next job as they are for the pay in their current job.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
