Some of it is progress.

Manager worried. Dennis has already signed it off.

The manager asked: “Is that plumb, bab?” Dennis didn’t even break stride. “Be alright, la.”

The manager is still measuring. Dennis is heading for the van. “Sound, la. It’s got character.”

Three-hour meeting ends. Team agrees to have tea.

The agenda covered budgets, delays and a missing laser measure. After constructive debate, the manager concluded: “Right, bab. Tea first.”

Dennis proposed shorter meetings. A two-hour meeting has been scheduled to discuss it.

“Bespoke” explained: we couldn’t make two the same if we tried.

The client asked why the cabinets were different. “That’s bespoke, la. Even the mistakes are custom.” Individuality was included at no extra charge. This time.

Drawing found. Work halted in surprise.

Found in the van, under seven other documents marked “final version”. The team saw what the project was supposed to look like.

It was agreed that the current building has more personality. The drawing was returned to a safe place. Nobody knows where.

New spirit level says the same thing. Suspicious.

The wall still looks crooked. Dennis suspects both spirit levels were made in the same factory. The old tape measure has requested annual leave.
