'Ladies and gents, the executive-worker pay ratio is not what it used to be!'

"Where do you expect to be ten years from now?"

"If CEO pay packets aren't a problem, why doesn't everyone get one?"

"No need to remind me. I'm well aware that I've forgotten completely about you."

"Profits. Good thing or the greatest thing?"

"It drives me MAD when people whine about the amount top management get paid. . ."

'Have you seen the ruddy margins the Chinese expect us to take up for this work?'

'I just happened to be in the right place at the right time to make CEO.'

"On the plus side, you're on the cover of all the major business publications."

"Guess who's going to be on national television apologizing to the American public."

'I've never had to butter up the boss. I've always been the boss.'

"Not bad! ...For a duck."

"It helps me stay focused on what matters most."

"I've got a lot on my plate right now. For starters, I need to sharpen my pencil, refill my coffee and get a new comb."

It's Raining Money

The buck stops here

'Relax Smithers, he is just a head hunter, they leave the rest of you alone.'

'I'm just a cat. What do I know about being a CEO. So I asked the Donald to come here to give me some advice.'

'The firm provides every new executive with a personal trainer.'

'I used to worry about becoming a big cheese in the company. Now that I'm a big cheese in the company, I worry about my cholesterol.'

'But RG, you can't be a big fish in all the big ponds...you can only be a big fish in your big pond.'

"I heard the boss had a nicer company vehicle than us, but I didn't realize how much nicer."
