Career Ladder Enthusiast Prints

"Blind loyalty, Gilliford, by God, that's a trait I like to see in a young man."

"Well, ordinary men have colleagues. Successful men have victims."

"Applying for an internship without an MBA? Quite confident, aren't we?"

'Is that the sweet smell of success or some imitation air freshener?'

"That arrow always goes to the bottom when I walk by."

"Work hard, make the sacrifices and in 25 years you could be just like me!"

"It looks like the 'because I say so' has it."

Like many of those in tribicles, Mitch dreamed of one day moving up to the real deal.

Not a surprise, coming from the new boss - who looks about 6 years old.

'You lack the expertise we're looking for, Mr Wheaton - but darn it, I like your attitude.'

'I'm moving up to be Chairperson-of-the-board. One of you will be President.' (Men have fencing swords).

"No, I'm not really a CEO. I just like to keep up with the Joneses."

'By the time I climbed up to this job, I was too tired to do it.'

'I'm afraid that the top investment banks are looking for more from job applicants than a 'Top Degree from the University of Hard Knocks'.'

'It could have been worse...she might have chosen banking.'

"Look , Malcolm, I get it that you're ambitious. But can't you put that damn thing down just for a minute?"

Texturing the Walls

'I refuse to relinquish the title, 'Top Young Exec'.'

"We don't have an exercise room here. You'll stay in shape by climbing the ladder, jumping through hoops, toeing the line..."

'You've spelt 'C.V.' wrongly.'

Ladder of Success.

"Firing is too good for you, Mike. I'm going to give you MY job instead!"

'I fetch, but it hasn't helped my career any.'

"No, our company doesn't provide day care or maternity leave."

Planting a Flag on the Summit

The Hive, Inc. You mean I'll always be a worker, with no chance of advancement?

"Yes, I'm sure you do deserve further career advancement. But if I promote you again you'll have my job!"

Ted did have some concerns about the appearance of nepotism.

"Todd was glad he had a support animal."

'He's done well considering he was just a part-time summer intern.'

'Going back to work now that the kids are grown is one thing, Martha. Mounting a hostile takeover bid of my company is another!'

-"Wife and kids?" -"No, a photo of a set of beautifully prepared accounts."

"Rumour has it that you're after my job."

"I have my pants put on one leg at a time."

'Yes, I occasionally make mistakes but, unlike you, I never have to acknowledge them.'
