I don't understand your point about this being "before Google come to existence." If your memory predates Google's ~1998 search services offering, it's surely possible that you've misremembered what Benny said? And the first reference I gave was to a copy of "Bright Lights, Dark Shadows: The Real Story of ABBA" from 2001, only a few years after Google. I don't see how Google search per se is relevant. The Orkla link you gave is in Swedish(!). Good thing there's Google Translate. It essentially supports the point that Abba was concerned about behavior, not jocular opposition to becoming fishmongers as you suggested. I do find it interesting that the first source I gave says "managing director" while the one you gave says "HR director". I expected "managing director" to mean CEO. Ha! There's an ABBA fandom entry about it (because of course there is), at https://abba.fandom.com/wiki/Abba_seafood https://abba.fandom.com/wiki/Abba_seafood , which references the same page and translates the term to "staff manager". Perhaps there are organizational differences between Sweden and US/UK which make direct translation difficult?
