bixby: Fritz, I need a raise! Fritz: Bixby, you work on commission... bixby: But my clients don't make me any money!! fritz: Then you need to get them more work! Bixby: But I'm not good enough to get them more work!! fritz: Well, you certainly shouldn't be penalized for that... bixby: Thanks, chef. 40% should do me just fine...
