In Real Life™ you only turn an employee down for a raise if you don’t care if they find another job. After all, they still need more money, and if you won’t provide it, they have a very good reason to go elsewhere. Here, of course, it’s safe as Brutus would never have the nerve to quit.

I think it’s a sign he’s giving it some thought. Mostly negative, but just trying to think positive.

Better than a poke in the eye like Basil Faulty did to Manuel!

Gee, the same thing happened to Dagwood two days ago. What a coincidence.
