Calm calm. Come on.

You can solve this and still make money for your company.

Remember Henry Ford? Remember?

He was wrong about a lot of things, but he was right about that.

Pay fair wages to people and give to them time to spend those wages

lead to a more prosperous nation.

This is so true today as it was in 1926.

Also, the Jewish conspiracy ...

No! Enough. Out, out, out.

Great.

All that youhave to remember

� does your business profit when the staff are well treated.

Look here. Remember Bob and Ryan?

My opinion as CEO is that we have We take care first of our team.

Treat people well is the best way of doing business.

And pay low wages to employees and overload them

It's bad for capitalism as a whole.

Because if people don't have time or money to buy things

the economy would collapse.

The only way to builda strong and stable economy

� ensure that the worker have money and free time.

Well done, Bob.

TOUCH HERE

You mean if I treat my employees well,

I will earn more long-term?

Yes, and I know that change is difficult,

but that's what you get boss salary, right?

Talvez ... Maybe I can squeeze some money.

Pay something for the interns.

And maybe hire Eric in full time. 659

And in the summer, on Friday afternoons, Everybody gets time off.

Call me an earthquake. Because I came to shake everything!

Now we are talking.

If you do all this ...

I will be one Nice boss.

Hashtag great boss.

So, Mr. Harris

You want us to start to pay the interns,

increase the power of officials in the negotiations

and release all Employees on Fridays?

Yes. Because, you see ...

No.

However, let's meet your request for new darts.

That!

We did it!

Changes lead time, Adam.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
