Just wanted to say, we're very pleased. You're doing a great job. Thank you, Mr. Kowalski. That's what I told that lady from the courts. "A great job," I said. - She's your lawyer? - She's a court-appointed psychiatrist, Dennis. Thank you, for... Thank you for saying that. No problem. So, Jerry, the thing is, is Milton Fixtures, every year, has the company party. - A barbecue. - Okay. And we get one representative from each department to help put it on, usually the new guy. And the new guy in shipping is you.
The Voices
So you want me to help plan a party? It's voluntary, off-the-clock. There will be others, too. Someone from sales, a guy from design, that cute English chick in accounting, Fiona. - You wanna do it? - Yes, I do. Of course, I do. Thank you. Cool. First meeting is tomorrow night at 5:00 - in the sales conference room. - Yeah, I wanna get it on. I wanna get it on. - The company buys pizza and beer. - Okay, I'm in. - Thank you, Dennis. Thank you, Dennis. - It'll be fun. Okay, okay.
The Voices
- What you doing, Jerry? - Something for work. Those assholes give you homework now? Trying on a shirt for tomorrow. They got something that they want me to do. - A shirt? Shouldn't that be a straitjacket? - Shut up. You act like they're doing you a favor letting you work there, like they should be able to fuck you in the ass without lube whenever they want. Like some big privilege, letting you work for free on their picnic.
The Voices
- How do you know about the picnic? - I know everything, Jerry. - At 6:00... - I'm not talking to you. They mock you the second you leave the room, Jerry. - You're an unstable crybaby. - I am not a crybaby. You're crying right now, liar. Come on. The only reason they don't fire your ass is because you're so hopelessly pathetic, you amuse them. Shut up!
The Voices
We all wanna get out of here, so, John, you'll be setting up the barbecue grills in the parking lot. Dave's bringing drinks. Sheryl's providing decorations, and Fiona's doing the music. Any questions? Yeah. I've got an idea, while we were sitting here. You know the office corridor? I thought it would be the perfect place for a conga line.
The Voices
Well, it's not the coolest thing in the world, but we are talking about a party in a toilet factory after all. Okay, it's settled, we'll go with a conga line. Moving on. Jerry? I'm setting up the PA system tomorrow, so if everything works out, I'm good to go. And I thank you all. And my extension in shipping is 5-1865. Running for office, Jerry? - No. - Dave, go screw yourself. Sheryl, Dave, come on. We're done here. We'll see you all at the picnic. Anyone who wants the leftover pizza, please take it.
The Voices
Hey, do you want any of this pizza, John? Cold pizza? No, thank you. - Free pizza. What's better than free pizza? - Lots of things. - Sushi, for example. - That's like raw fish, right? No. It's perfectly cooked rice, seasoned by a master chef, on top of which he places specially selected slices of the highest quality, line-caught ocean fish. Raw fish. Gross. You should stick to fast food.
