one of life's more difficult dilemmas

i'm still trying to decide whether this was an insult or a compliment: 

one day, our driver was trying to open the plastic packaging of a torch that he had just bought. so i took it from him, whipped out my leatherman (which sounds vaguely dirty i know), and knifed it open. 

so he turns, and says to the finance assistant who was sitting under the tree with us (life is hard, isn't it?), 'i just need 10 women like her'. i was like, 'err...' because i couldn't decide then and i still can't decide now whether it was a compliment or an insult!
