Joining The Family Business Pillows

"Luck, son, is when preparation meets nepotism."

"I didn't want the family business but ten years ago, on take your child to work day, my father wouldn't let me go home again."

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

'Someday, son, all this will be yours...' 'In the meantime...'

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

'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'!'

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

'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."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

'Where did we go wrong?'

'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.'

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

"This is a family operation, Ben, and we're evicting you from our family."

'Someday, Son, all of this will be yo....!'
