    Jay says you’re pretty determined.
    -He’s been waiting outside the front of the building with some 40-pound gizmo for over a month.
    -He said you’re smart.
    -Well, I like to think so.
    -And you want to learn this business?
    -Yes, sir, I wanna learn.
    -Have you already started learning on your own?
    -Absolutely.
    -Jay?
    -Yes, sir.
    -How many times have you seen Chris?
    -I don’t know. One too many, apparently.
    -Was he ever dressed like this?
    -No. No. Jacket and tie.
    -First in your class in school?
    -High school?
    -Yes, sir.
    -How many in the class?
    -Twelve. It was a small town.
    -I’ll say.
    -But I was also first in my radar class in the Navy, and that was a class of 20. Can I say something? I’m the type of person if you ask me a question, and I don’t know the answer, I’m gonna tell you that I don’t know. But I bet you what. I know how to find the answer, and I will find the answer. Is that fair enough?
    -Chris. What would you say if a guy walked in for an interview without a shirt on, and I hired him? What would you say?
    -He must’ve had on some really nice pants.
    -Chris, I don’t know how you did it dressed as a garbage man, but you pulled it off.
    -Thank you, Mr. Twistle.
    -Hey, now you can call me Jay. We’ll talk to you soon.
    All right, so I’ll let you know, Jay.
    -“You’ll let me know, Jay”? What do you mean?
    -Yeah, I’ll give you a call tomorrow sometime–
    -What are you talking–? You hounded me for this. You stood here–
    -Listen, there’s no salary.
    -No.
    I was not aware of that. My circumstances have changed some and I need to be certain that I’ll be–
    -All right. Okay.
