Chillaxing!

'And if you become homeless due to this layoff, you can pitch a tent on my estate...'

'We really can't afford golden parachutes any more, but here's a plastic crash helmet.'

'OK everyone get out... we're downsizing!'

"Poor Chap,he's only been here a few days but the pressure of the job seems to have got to him already."

'Relax, I'm not here for you. Just for your job.'
