"– The reward was not in the pay envelope. If you showed initiative and took responsibility, you were rewarded. "Go to Värnamo, go to Uddevalla, go to London," they would say when there was a new opening. You did not say no. I got a job in Germany in 1984. I was only 28 then.[11](private://read/01jas9tvg84jycb27616w1f9k8/#note-11)"

"When Trøim studied at NTH, the dismantling of Swedish shipyards was part of the curriculum. Fredriksen's right-hand man had firsthand knowledge of how industrial companies grow – and fall. In the 60s, Sweden was the world's leading shipbuilder. From the slips at shipyards like Eriksberg, Kockums, Uddevalla, and Götaverken, rows of supertankers emerged which in later years would make Norwegian and Greek shipowners alternately filthy rich and scraped – in line with the merciless cycles of shipping."
