Either $5 was a fortune back then or that is one cheap boss.
Comic must be old. The boss is wearing spats.
Slightly more than 70 years ago I found my father’s pay stub and thought “Wow! What a lot of money!” On reflection, today I say: “What a rip-off.”
$5 in 1940 equals $32 today. Of course, we don’t know if Jeff was hoping for a daily raise or weekly.
Google “Inflation Calculator” and have some fun.
He who gets to laugh last is the boss.
So Jeff sold out and got nothing for it.
“they may not entertain my suggestions but my suggestions certainly entertain them” (from Andy Capp I believe)
Jeff debasing himself for nothing.
