"I know you think this sort of thing is nonsense sir, and I hate to prove you wrong. But according to my crystal ball, you're not going to give me the raise I'm about to ask for."

"Oh, I can be dependable, and for another £200 a week, I can be productive too."

'I didn't get the salary increase, but I've been moved one parking space closer to the entrance.'

'A raise? Has all the media doom and gloom about the economy been wasted on you?'
