"Do you just sit here and do nothing"
"They pay you to do that?"
"So what do you do here?"
"Do you gather company information too?"
"Can't they just hire a grunt to do your job?"
"People actually pay for your information?"
In the new car
"So is this what you bought?"
"It's hot in here - why do you have a sun roof?"
"44K Miles? My Cad. has less miles that that!"
"The leather in my car is softer!"
At the vietnamese restaurant
"The seat is wet!"
"Do you come here to eat all the time?"
"There are 4 rice rolls in the picture, but when they bring it out, there're only 2!"
"They don't have knives here either?"
