'I'm getting a mixed message.'
'A raise? Has all the media doom and gloom about the economy been wasted on you?'
Boss? Why've you been calling me "Sauron" all day? It's a hero's journey thing. Step 8, to be exact: The Ordeal. In the ordeal, the hero of the story faces a pivotal test of either strength or will. In Lord of the Rings, the ordeal was the face-off with Sauron. But why'd you start calling me that right after I asked for a raise? Denied, foul beast! ... Now, let me check my bank account for Step 9: The Reward.
"I know you think this sort of thing is nonsense sir, and I hate to prove you wrong. But according to my crystal ball, you're not going to give me the raise I'm about to ask for."

'I'm prepared to offer you a raise, if you work hard. I knew there'd be a catch.'
"Mom, I got the raise. They moved me to the second floor."
