Blofeld
At the Nokia HQ in Keilaniemi...
- Impoverished workers!
This year, no bonuses will be distributed!
I bet that pisses you off. We're RAKING it in...
The money will be transferred to the executive board's account.
- Did you hear that, guys? We're not getting any bonuses!
- It can't be so! Well, at least I've got my CV updated.
Driven mad
- Whoo-hoo! Company car, and bonuses on the way! Life's a gas!
- What the hell? Is that OPK? Has the old pauper taken to riding a moped? :-D
- Shalom, coolies. OPK here.
Haven't you coolies heard that leasing cars have to be returned to ALD?
And your Connectings are toast, too.
- But, what the f*ck? The company's making more dough than the Vatican.
- Right on, but that money's not going to end up in coolies' pockets.
So.. Get those wheels back to ALD, and get coding!
Slaving in Florida
- Mr Director Man, I've been working like a slave, but now I'm not getting any bonus.
- Thank you for your efforts, but you forget the hard toil of the executive board...
Last year, we had to make THREE trips to Florida for seminars! Think of that!
- But just a couple of grand would do me fine!
- I'll say this for the last time. You get ZILCH! Now get out of my sight!
- And what do we learn from this story?
You work your butt off doing overtime, but in the end you wind up getting shafted!
