The Office - Asking for a Raise
mharrell08:
Bill: Excuse me sir, may I talk to you?
Mr. Jones: Bill! Sure, come on in. What can I do for you?
Bill: Well sir, as you know, I have been an employee of this prestigious firm for over ten years.
Mr. Jones: Yes.
Bill: I won't beat around the bush. Sir, I would like a raise. I currently have three companies after me and so I decided to talk to you first.
Mr. Jones: A raise? Son, I would love to give you a raise, but this is just not the right time.
Bill: I understand your position, and I know that the current economic downturn has had a negative impact on sales, but you must also take into consideration my hard work, pro-activeness and loyalty to this company for over a decade.
Mr. Jones: Taking into account these factors, and considering I don't want to start a brain drain, I'm willing to offer you a ten percent raise and an extra five days of vacation time. How does that sound?
Bill: Great! It's a deal! Thank you, sir!
Mr. Jones: Before you go, just out of curiosity, what companies were after you?
Bill: Oh, the electric company, gas company and water company!
