It’s boring.DYLANYeah. It is boring. I’m very bored.RICHOK.I could eat another apple? Reckon if Amy didn’tdistract me I could have done it way-DYLANDid you know that abattoirs, like slaughterhouses, theyall get built the same way, so that the lanes thecattle line up in when they’re about to, you know, allthe lanes are curved. Because then the cows can onlysee the back legs of the animal in front of them,instead of seeing what’s happening ahead of them.RICHAre you. Is this like a vegetarian thing?DYLANNo, I’m just saying, every new target, or promotion,whatever. It sometimes feels like we’re only everconcentrating on what’s directly in front of us.19

What about everything else?RICHHave you looked at getting a new job?DYLANI can’t leave now.RICHWhy not?DYLANStart at the bottom?RICHCourse.
