From The Smartest Guys In The Room, by McLean and Elklind (a book on the rise and fall of Enron):

The utter disarray of the business was impossible to overcome. After the purge of the Pai regime, a veteran trader from wholesale named Don Black was brought in to take over the trading desk. After he'd been there a while, Black summed up his EES experience to a colleague: "It's like going to work every day with your hair on fire and nothing to put it out with but a hammer".
