'Did you get the promotion?'

"You've got your corner office, so what more do you want?"

"Well, ordinary men have colleagues. Successful men have victims."

"Oh, yes, and there's plenty of opportunity for advancement."

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

'Salaries Manager. No.'

'You really want that promotion, don't you, Sherman?'

Upward Progress

"That arrow always goes to the bottom when I walk by."

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

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

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

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

'I refuse to relinquish the title, 'Top Young Exec'.'

'How come, unlike some other bosses, you never surprise me with little promotions?'

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

"Why do you always assume I'm going down?"

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

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

"Firing is too good for you, Mike. I'm going to give you MY job instead!"

'You are smarter, faster and more efficient than Carter... they's why I'm making you the new assistant to Carter!'

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

'You don't get a raise with this promotion, but you do get to call your work area a 'work station' instead of a 'cubicle.''

The March to the Top

'Ah, Gripes, you want to discuss a raise with me, eh? Come in, sit down, make yourself comfortable!'

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

'Being a nobody isn't so bad...You don't have to worry about becoming a has-been.'

'Where do you see yourself in five minutes?'

'That's our corporate ladder.'

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

"I already GAVE you a raise, three weeks from now!"

'I've been thinking about quitting, but it's the only thing that gets me out of the house.'

"I'm getting tired of telling you you can't have a raise!"
