So, a lot of the men on the van talk about cars. a lot. One guy, Tom, has an old Jag (I think, but it might be a different British car) that his wife drives. It apparently needs a lot of repairs, all of which have to be done by hand.
Yesterday, he went about detailing all of the repairs that the car is currently undergoing or has undergone recently to Jamie, the guy who always sits shot gun. Other than the upholstery being patched, I don't remember what all of the repairs were but after every single one Jamie would say, "I bet they have some special machine for that, right man?" And every time, Tom would respond, "no, Jamie they all have to be done by hand." The conversation went like this over and over and over again as every repair was discussed in detail. I was seriously questioning my sanity by the end of the dialogue, and am pretty sure I would have snapped and yelled something like, "DON'T YOU GET IT, JAMIE. IT ALL HAS TO BE DONE BY HAND. EVERYTHING. BY HAND. ALL OF IT." had it continued for much longer. But, it didn't and I didn't.
