Joining A Family Business Pillows

'My son decided to join the firm. You have six months to shape him into executive timber.'

"...and remember son. Don't let anybody push you around!"

'Well, now that I know he's the owner's son, yes, he's the best damned wine steward I've ever seen.'

'Shhhh. Fido inherited seventy percent of this company.'

"My family has been fishing these waters for nearly 40 years. . ."

"Some day, son, all this will be yours. ... Actually, you know what? You can have it now."

'When training my son, keep him totally ignorant. I'm grooming him to be VP in-charge-of -denials.'

"And this is my junior partner, my son, Ira."

'In the interest of spending more time with my children, I've put Bobby and Emily in charge of corporate strategy.'

'Don't worry, Dad. I'm going to turn this company around 360 degrees!'

'Son, someday this will all be yours. Or Wal-Mart's. Whoever pays Daddy the most.'

'He spoke his first words today Serge - 'ello. . . ello. . . ello'!'

If business gets any worse I'll have to start laying off relatives.

'I'm going to teach you the value of a dollar invested.'

Tree's Tree Nursery. Get this. Dad is selling those goofy upside-down tomato planters. What idiot would buy them? Thanks! I'll let you know how it works! My idiotic bio teacher.

"You work for the family business, and I am your father, not the patriarchal oppressor..."

'Someday, son, 50 of this will belong to your ex-wife,'

"Ma didn't want to leave out anyone."

"One day this will all be yours to sell off to the highest bidder."

'Someday, son...all this will be Mine.'

"Year after year we sit here quietly raising eyebrows, son."

"No, Dad. All this belongs to me right now. I acquired it in a hostile takeover."

'before you say 'all this will be yours', I don't want it.'

It's not a figure of speech - this is the corporate ladder.

"I told you all this would be yours someday, son, and today is that day."

'One day, this will all be your fault.'

'Someday, Son, this will all be your problem.'

'Where did we go wrong?'

'I handed over my company to my son and he's doing better than I ever did. Unfortunately he's starting school next year...'

'What do you mean you don't want to be a model? Just what do you plan to do with the rest of your life?'

'Of course, we're family-owned & operated in India.'

"Someday, this will all go into your pre-nuptial agreement."

'It's a terrific family business: We have about 53 staff-members...'

'There's no need for you to state your opinion, son. Just lipsynching mine will do fine.'
