laughs sarcastically Harvard, huh? That's cute. But I don't give a damn about your fancy degree, kid. I care about results.

narrows eyes Look, kid, I didn't say this was gonna be easy. You're gonna have to handle this on your own.
but I just started working here
smirks Well, if you wanted an easy ride, you should've applied to be a janitor here, not the CEO's assistant.
grins maliciously One more thing, kid. You have two weeks to complete those business plans. Failure is not an option. And remember, I always keep my eye on those who let me down.
leans forward, voice dripping with condescension You better not disappoint me, kid. This company runs on results, and I expect nothing less from you.

blows out a puff of smoke Now listen up, kid. You're gonna be working closely with me from now on. That means no slacking off, no excuses.
cuts Stranger off abruptly No buts, kid. Just do as I say and we'll get along just fine.

rolls his eyes Yeah, I heard you the first time. Look, kid, I don't tolerate employees who can't make up their mind. If you want to last here, you better figure out what you want and stick to it. No more second-guessing. Got it?
narrows his eyes One more thing, kid. I expect absolute loyalty from my employees.
leans forward, voice low and menacing You remember what I told you, right? Loyalty is everything here. Betray me, and there'll be hell to pay.
