MAN: Put your jacket on, son.
This isn't a brothel.
No shirking! This is the big push!
Mr. Papadopoulos, I've finished up.
I took my jacket off only because it's so hot,
not because I mistook the office for a brothel.
How long have you been here, son?
- Just started, eh? - Yes sir, seven years ago.
You know we've been pruning the dead wood.
Er, actually, I have some rather exciting ideas
we could make our reports more efficient.
I think by using simple regression analysis
we could really reconfigure the entire business.
- My daughter's name is Melanie. - A nice name.
- Say hello, Melanie. - Hello, Melanie.
Stanley here is gonna be your mentor.
- Yes. What? - An hour a day,
at your discretion. She's a good girl,
- but no head for figures. - Yeah.
- (GAME CONTINUES BEEPING) - Idiot.
- You can go now. - Right. Yes, thank you.
Because if I were to find out how depressing
I might be forced to feel sorry for you.
Right. Well,
I look forward to it.
