The City of Ember

I am reading the book The City of Ember. These people called the builders build a city underground and make the people that live there stay for two hundred thirty years before they can leave. The instructions on how to get out of Ember are in a locked box that has a timer that will open when it's time. On the children's twelth year they are assigned a job they will have to do for six months then if they are good at there job they shall keep it if they are not good they shall be resigned. Doon one of the main characters gets the job of pipe worker and is not happy when he sees the generator.
