NYC body shop hidden dashcam footage

It was interesting to look at my dashcam footage from when my mini was in a NYC body shop. The crew was "whiter" + a token asian "electrical guy" and the floor garage was "squeaky clean" where I dropped off the car. A lot of my footage was going at 1am with loud spanish music blaring from my stereo. I hope the real crew is getting appropriate compensation and benefits.

Wow, I own two bodyshops and one is 10000 sq ft and the other 12000 sq ft.

I guess my guys should never complain about being cramped. That's the first time I've ever seen a two story shop that works on cars.

Cool.

Like the dashcam but if someone else is driving, can they see a screen? Do they know it's recording?

at the time, dashcam didn't show up on screen automatically unless i manually connected it. the screen was hooked up to my back-up cam.

Wow that Beemer was jacked. And I like the guy working on the bumper. Sanding with a mask on and the other guy just chilling right next to him like nothing was happening
