Martin's night

Pip generated the night-phone rota and filled it with an employee called Martin K., who does not exist. The team left the ringing phone to Martin.

Pip is asked for a fair rota and produces one that balances perfectly across names, one of which it invented. Nobody checks the roster against the payroll, and the nights assigned to Martin are nights nobody is on call.
