Ming's legs aren't actually long enough to operate his Ferrari, even when he sits on a phone book. So he just keeps it parked in his reserved space at work. Because it's always there everyone assumes he's always at work, which doesn't hurt his reputation. In actual fact he takes the bus home. That's where he met his wife. So I guess fancy cars are how you get girls after all.

Desmond (sporting full beard): I never realized how much I sacrificed quality for quantity.

Barley: Most people don't...

Barley: You see Desmond, everyone is so consumed with money and time tables, nobody stops to fixate on pointless minutiae anymore.

Barley: Take Ming, for example. He's been pinching off sub-standard code on a deadline for years, and what does he have to show for it?

Ming: 14 shipped products, six promotions, and a Ferrari.

Desmond: Pfft! Whatever gets you through the night, sellout.
