Pretty soon, that wasn’t enough, so they built a two-story extension. That still wasn’t enough, so they built another two-story extension. Even that wasn’t enough, so they added a whole new building to the mix.
Eventually, the company had enough buildings and everyone was able to get back to work.
Here is the second two-story extension, aka Phase 3, under construction:
