They went the long way 'round.
The gas station had not been invented yet.
I think the brandy-swirling leftist term is “commodity fetishism.”
Management pushes contradictory narratives as it suits them, while doing nothing to monitor actual work, which they know very little about. Just a priesthood of MBAs chanting catechisms invented out of thin air to justify their laziness.

They tampered with evidence that was plenty damning to begin with.
Ironic choice for a painting that was never intended to be seen by anyone but the artist.
