3rd Rock From The Sun – Little Dick Goes To Market

Dick: All right, Tommy, as owners of Eversoll, inc, we must find a way to cut the overspending that is bringing this company to its knees and keeping me from going to sunny Cancun.

Tommy: Let’s trim the fat.

Dick: To the bone.
Tommy: Is this the right floor?

Dick: Who cares? Hey. What are you doing lollygagging about?

Tommy: Lollygagger.

Dick: You. Get off the phone.
Tommy: See me in my office.
Dick: Get him an office. Hey. I notice you’re all drinking from separate cups. One cup per group.
Tommy: We’re trying to run a business here.
Dick: Not a water-drinking factory.
Tommy: What is with all the computers in here?

Dick: Hasn’t anybody heard of an abacus? Hey, you. Walk with me. What do you do here?

Random Guy: I’m the VP in charge of marketing.
Dick: Enjoying yourself?

Random Guy: Oh, yeah. I love the work. The hours are great, and the day care is really convenient.
Dick: You hear that, Tommy?

Tommy:  I sure do, Dick.
Dick: Shut down the day care, make this guy work weekends, and then fire him. No one has this much fun on my dime. What are these, paintings?

Tommy: You don’t need art to run a business.
Dick: Sell! Sell! Sell!

Secretary: Hey, you can’t go in there. There’s a board meeting in session.
Dick: Without calling me? You’re fired.
Eversoll: I’ll say it again. This doesn’t fly. I want to see earnings—

Dick: Who the hell are you? I’ll take this chair, if you don’t mind. So, where were we?

Tommy: Cost cutting.
Dick: That’s right. I’ve gone over the numbers a million times, and I still don’t see how you can justify spending that much money for a table this long. Feedback?
Bob: Yeah. Who are you?

Dick: Who are you?

Bob gander.
Dick: Hi, bob. You’re fired. As a matter of fact, you’re all fired.
Eversoll: Now just a second. You can’t fire me. I’m john Eversoll, president of this company, and just who do you think you are?

Dick: I am the noble stockholder. It is I who paid for your desk. It is I who bought this office building. And without my investment dollars, you would have nothing. Am I your boss? No. I am your god. Tommy, how’s our stock doing?

Tommy: It dropped a point.
Dick: Oh, yeah? You’re fired.
Tommy: Excuse me?!

Eversoll: get them out of here.
Dick: Wait. Do we need two security guards? I don’t think so. Fire them both and get one big one.
