Cliff Quote #407
Quote from Cliff in Our Hourly Bread
Cliff: It's just that my annual civil service raise came in today, you know, at three and a half percent, just like clockwork, you know, as if, uh, carrying that bag wasn't honor enough.
Woody: Wow, Mr. Clavin, you got a raise, huh?
Cliff: Yup.
Woody: I've been hoping for a raise for two years now. I haven't gotten diddly.
Cliff: Well, Woody, that is an outrage. You ought to walk right up to Miss Howe, look her square in the eye, and demand diddly. [laughs]
Norm: Ah, tell you what, you work overtime, you get over-diddly, pal.
Cliff: [laughs] And, uh, diddly-and-a-half on weekends... [laughs] and, uh, golden diddly on holidays, too.
Norm: Uh, Cliff? Cliff, the secret is knowing when to stop.

Quote from Rebecca
Woody: Wait a minute. Let's just stick with this title thing.
Rebecca: No, no, Woody, you said you would settle for a raise. Now, I'm going to hold you to it.
Woody: Oh, no, I blew it! I should have demanded a title. Money gets spent, but titles are forever.
Rebecca: No, Woody, I told you-
Woody: Doggone it, Miss Howe, you're not going to palm some raise off on me. I don't want money. I- I deserve a title.
Rebecca: Woody, I've met some tough negotiators in my life... All right, you deserve it. I'll go to the mat for you. Congratulations. You're the new Senior Bartender.
Woody: Get out! Senior Bartender?! Wait till I tell my folks! To think I came in here asking for a stupid little raise, and now this. I just hope it doesn't go to my head.
Rebecca: Oh, that's what's nice about you, Woody. Nothing ever goes to your head.
