Employee:

Excuse me sir, may I talk to you?

?Boss:

Sure, come on in. What can I do for you?

Employee:

Well sir, as you know, I have been an employee of this prestigious firm for over ten years.

?Boss:

Yes.

Employee:

I won't beat around the bush. Sir, I would like a raise. I currently have four companies after me and so I decided to talk to you first.

?Boss:

A raise? I would love to give you a raise, but this is just not the right time.

Employee:

I understand your position, and I know that the current economic down turn has had a negative impact on sales, but you must also take into consideration my hard work, pro-activeness and loyalty to this company for over a decade..

?Boss:

Taking into account these factors, and considering I don't want to start a brain drain, I'm willing to offer you a ten percent raise and an extra five days of vacation time. How does that sound?

Employee:

Great! It's a deal Thank you, sir!

?Boss:

Before you go, just out of curiosity, what companies are after you?



Employee:

Oh,the Electric Company, Gas Company, Water Company and the Mortgage Company!
