Jonah Quote #50

Quote from Jonah in Forced Hire

Jonah: Uh, hey... uh, guys? Guys... is it... is it all guys? We should probably talk about that, but, uh, another day. So, look. I get that there are probably some reservations about this whole union thing, you know, and yeah, I don't seem like you, you know, at first, because I'm more booksmart or... not even, not even smarter, just... just like, um, you know, better educated. Or... not better... gross, why would I..
Alex: What are you saying?
Jonah: Uh, what I'm saying is, I get that this is a little scary, but what corporate is gonna do if we don't do this is even scarier, okay? So, you know, you, you, you, you're all at risk of being replaced by machines.
Paul: So I'm good?
Jonah: Uh, no, you're... you're at risk, too.
Paul: You didn't point at me.
Jonah: Okay, the pointing was arbitrary. All right, look, a union is our best shot at protecting our jobs. Okay, so who's with me?
Alex: I don't know. Can we trust this guy?
Marcus: Honestly, I'm not sure.
Jonah: Guys, of course you can trust me, okay? I'm... I'm... I'm a fighter. You know, we are... we are the same. We are the every man, you know? I... you... and we... we share... look, you wanna... you wanna watch me, uh, you wanna watch me chug this ranch? I'm gonna slam this ranch. Watch me slam this ranch! Okay. Mmm... [gulping]
Marcus: He's in my band.
