'May I have your frequent flier points?'

'I'll make my final decision on that promotion of yours, after this game.'

"Then we have an unspoken agreement?"

"I need to see your budget proposal."

'You think I'm crazy; I think you're crazy...finally some common ground!'

'Try and be negative in a positive way.'

Tug of Negotiation and Conciliation.

'Pick a contract...any contract!'

Changing Minds

'Miss Finch, find out what she does over there and offer her twice as much to do it over here.'

'Maybe you should reconsider those place cards, Ms Harris?' (Negotiation talks/Good Guys/Bad Guys)

"Let me get this, but keep in mind that you'll pay for it in other, more subtle ways later on."

"So do I take it that's a 'NO' to the pay rise?"

"Finally we have something in common...mutual distrust."

Overdraft limit.

Sure, I'll sit, but I want half the treat upfront.

We pay the maximum minimum wage.

"Before we begin, we'd like to remind you that we're an employee owned company."

Goodenow & Bettman: We have a deal Bob! But do we have any fans left?

"Just to get the negotiations off on the right foot, I don't intent to concede anything."

"Before we start our wages negotiation talks, the lads would like to congratulate the chairman on his 83% salary increase."

"Your interest in the salary makes me wonder how 'self-motivated' you really are."

A successful meeting! Only one member left in a rage shouting obcenities.

'My final offer.'

"No screen time means more scream time."

After the latest pay bonus and benefit awards you've won, I've decided to join you on the shop floor.

'Sir, for Heavens' sake, stop screaming! It's just Mr Winkleberger asking for a raise!'

I'd like to request a transfer to a household offering a higher allowance and fewer choices.

"I've memorized so many passwords, things are starting to get weird."

"You gave me the wrong drink. I demand a total refund!!" "OK. Where's the drink?" "What do you mean? I drank it. It wasn't till I was done that I realized it was the wrong drink. The right drink leaves a different aftertaste." "You can't finish the drink and then ask for a refund. That's not how it works." "You didn't tell me that before I paid for the wrong drink. So that's on you." "That's not how it works!"

"The union is objecting to our 'grotesquely inflated' wages, do you think they'd settle for 'outrageously inflated' instead?"

"Marriage, mortal combat. Tomato, tomahto."

'If negotiations sour, throw a handful in his eyes.'

'Thanks for coming. Now, let's see if we can bring this negotiation to closure.'

'Someone come and mediate our argument about mediation!'
