Overdraft limit.

'You've got just 2 minutes to pack then you are on OUR time and I'm going to start charging you rent!'

'In conclusion; our major contract expires tomorrow, we have no idea what we want, and no knowledge of the market, It is time to pass this across to the Procurement Team...'

"What happened to the good old days when people just breached contracts?'

'Forget my mortgage application, fill this bag with money. I've decided to make a cash offer!'

'Well, Helen, you were right - our marriage contract does include an option year.'

'My motto is 'What happens at this company, stays at this company'. That's why I take your performance and keep your wage.'

Perhaps a ceasefire is in order. Terms? I will agree not to pummel you for forgetting our anniversary. You will refrain from pursuing the possibility that I, too, have forgotten it.

'It's just a scratch. I can still handle dessert.'

"Mr. Tilson will suffer you gladly now."

'Dickson, how many times do I have to tell you, don't start out with the price!'
