Poor Jorge - typecast as the window washer. Looks like Colin really liked his job, though.

Now that I think of it, that was kind of racist to make him the sanitation guy.

What they should have done - have all four of them working at a Yamaha dealership. One at the parts counter, a couple of them back in the shop getting their hands dirty working on bikes, and Colin out on the sales floor giving the hard sell to a customer.

I think we could either accuse Yamaha of monumental ethnic insensitivity or credit them with a brilliant piece of satire on our country's immigration and employment policies.

It's in the eye of the beholder...

Wasn't that a line from a Marx Bros. movie?

Man: Are you a man or a mouse?
Groucho: Put a piece of cheese on the floor and you'll find out.

i don't think that was racist. Jorge is from Spain, not Mexico. the only thing they have in common is the language. it was just #### funny

It was written well but the reason it works is because those dudes get it.
