The deadline is Thursday; there are no extensions or excuses allowed.
If you’re having problems with that guy in HR, come to me right away and we’ll figure out how to deal with him. I’ll take care of him.
I don’t want any of you who are losing your jobs in this downsizing to leave this company feeling like we didn’t do all we could for you. If you need something, now or a year from now, I expect you to call me.
I want to give you some negative feedback about your performance, and I know it hurts, but I’ve been there too. So here it is: You gave the Mancuso brothers 5 percent too much. That Joe, he got one over on me the first time we made a deal, too. No one’s perfect.
We have to improve performance by 10 percent. Not 8 percent or 9 percent, but 10 percent. To do that, I expect every one of you to put in at least five additional hours per week.
I want to create a partnership with Acme Corporation, but only if they agree to a 50-50 split of all the revenue we generate and as long as our knowledge-exchange program benefits both companies equally.
I know I said that we would only do a 50-50 split with Acme, but I’d take a lower percentage if we could forge an alliance with XYZ Corporation.
Yeah, Joe in sales is a jerk, but he’s a very productive jerk and we need him, so I’ll treat him like my best friend until he crosses the line.
