Didn't start awkward but ended up just a tad so:


Looked out my office window this afternoon to see this group of guys standing around my car and what looked like posing and taking pictures. They were all wearing what looked like very expensive over coats and suits. I decide this is a good time to take a break (ya a "break") and go out. Turns out they are a bunch of engineers from Toyota! They were all amazed and very pleased to see my very dirty, salt covered car and through a translator congratulated me for driving it in a Canadian winter. They asked a few questions about how it was in snow and cold and then obviously were ready to go in.
This is where things got awkward! Since they all had been posing for pics I asked if I could get a picture with them all beside it. The translator asked them and all of a sudden they all became very stern looking and answered him for what seemed like 20 minutes. Apparently they can not let "other people" take their picture with a car without corporate approval.


P.S. This is the second time my car has attracted a gaggle of Toyota engineers but I didn't know about the first time until a few days after it happened.
