'...we have every new employee spend time on our assembly line. Eight hours, no breaks.'

"I've been working from home for the last couple of years."

'Haven't you cracked that yet ?'

'We are an environmentally sensitive organization. We will have to do a background check on the size of your carbon footprint before we can make an offer of employment.'

'Nice smile! What do you think?'

'How soon can you be started?'

"Typical company, I'm the only woman!!"

'This government commitment to extend flexible working has got me tied up in knots.'

'Frankly, we're looking for someone very much unlike you.'

'So far, so good -- I got a second interview!'

'While they always come back as unfounded, maybe you could prevent these allegations of sexual harassment by not telling people you like the cut of their jib.'

But I Can't Afford to Accept Economic Reality!

"You're invited to our management excursion. Come dresses as a pinata."

'Why is it that nothing ever gets done at these meetings?'

'The 'insourcing' will go ahead and some jobs will be off to Leeds or Manchester, but I think I'll be safe...'

'I hope you're not threatened by powerful women, because you're fired.'

"Bert, I'm confused. What happens after we circle the wagons, tighten our belts and walk a mile in our customer's shoes? Is that when the chickens come home to roost?"

"Another week another dollar, Jenkins"

"The good news is you’re the only one we’re not firing ... the bad news is you’re the only one to run the department."

"So what kind of mood is he in?"
