FINANCE NEVER SLEEPS

4th Year VP Desperately Trying to Get Promoted (Pink): So I was thinking it over and I want to show a couple additional financing scenarios. I also added a few targets in Lat Am in case they want to go international. I drew up some pages.

2nd Year Analyst: It's a fucking catch-up lunch meeting with the CEO... Just take a knee... Promo's not happening bro.

 

Yea..... if you could put those TPS cover sheets like we requested on these forms too.....that would be GREATTTTTTT!!!!!

i'm not smart enough to do everything, but dumb enough to try anything

If you grow tired of marking up decks, just redline your associate's eyeballs. Then instead of assuming their materials aren't good enough, they will just know.

You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.

 

1st year analyst asking when he can leave? VP: "Where the %$# is my deck? " *VP throws stack of resumes at analyst VP: "You think any of these people would ask when to leave?!" VP gets another stack of resumes and prepares to throw them

 

Pink shirt: Hey Martin, did you finish the 87th version of the pitch book? Blue shirt: Almost... done... Pink shirt: Let me know when you're done. I'll give you the 88th version for review then.

I've been trying to email you this Comcast/TWC merger for hours, but the goddamn internet is down.

Teach a man to make a fire, he'll be warm for the night. But set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
 

On a completely related note, I have a desk lamp exactly like that one in the picture.

Dom Portwood: Hi, Peter. What's happening? We need to talk about your TPS reports. Peter Gibbons: Yeah. The coversheet. I know, I know. Uh, Bill talked to me about it. Dom Portwood: Yeah. Did you get that memo? Peter Gibbons: Yeah. I got the memo. And I understand the policy. And the problem is just that I forgot the one time. And I've already taken care of it so it's not even really a problem anymore. Dom Portwood: Ah! Yeah. It's just we're putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports before they go out now. So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that'd be great. All right!
