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?
