Michael Quote #78
Quote from Michael in Staff Infection
Michael: The plan is wrong. We gotta get rid of the individual swimming pools and put in a great big communal one right in the center. Lindsay, you were right. We've all been working a little bit too hard. You can't manage by threatening and pushing people and sometimes you have to reward hard work. Maybe reward it with a party. [construction workers cheer] I didn't mean tonight. Just some time in the future when we have some extra food and liquor.
Lucille: Lupe! Lupe, I need help with the groceries!
Lindsay: How about just liquor?
