Promotion Appraiser Mugs

'I applied the instant rebate and the returning customer loyalty reward, so that comes to fifty cents.'

'How fast can you hype?'

"You've proven your worth a hundred times over. Let's try for a thousand."

Upward Progress

'You're going to have to work your way up to the ground floor like everyone else.'

'I hear you got your increase.' - 'Yes, that proves my theory, if you whine enough, you get anything you want.'

'Parsloe, your desk is blocking the corporate food chain.'

"Pardon me, but why is there no ceiling this office?"

'I'm moving up to be Chairperson-of-the-board. One of you will be President.' (Men have fencing swords).

'Tomorrow's special is fish, so wear the flounder suit.'

'By the time I climbed up to this job, I was too tired to do it.'

'Underestimate him at your own risk. When he first came here, everybody laughed and said he didn't have a snowball's chance. Now he's our regional supervisor. Go figure!'

"You know, there's a corporate elevator."

There now, that wasn't too difficult was it!

"I'm beginning to think they replaced the ladder of success with a greased pole."

"Remember when everyone told you this job would lead you nowhere? Well, you've arrived!"

'Another nice thing about working here, they tend to promote from within.'

'You may feel lost and insignificant at first working for us.'

"I think he said he wants to buy 'just the one'. You'd better fetch the manager"

'Nice work, kid. Looks like you might be ready to sit up at the big boys' table.'

'That's our corporate ladder.'

"He's only an associate but he's already reaping at a partner's level."

'Do you think now's a good time to ask for a raise?' - 'I wouldn't if I was you. She gave me one this morning.'

"Mom, I got the raise. They moved me to the second floor."
