Verified subtitle lines and timestamps for this episode:
- [00:00] I'm Ethan Reed. I've been with Kelvin Industries for eight years, securing half
- [00:04] the company's credit lines. Last year I got a $200,000 year-end bonus.
- [00:16] This year? 2000? I thought it had to be a system error so I went to finance.
- [00:23] That's right, that's all you're getting. Got a problem? Take it up with management.
- [00:31] I didn't. I just started clearing out my desk.
- [00:35] You're really leaving?
- [00:37] Screw this. I quit.
- [00:40] I wrapped up my resignation cleanly.
- [00:42] Not one executive showed up.
- [00:44] Three days later, when the bank came knocking for its money,
- [00:48] Chairman Marcus finally remembered to call me.
- [00:51] Ethan, when did you quit? Why didn't anyone tell us?
- [00:55] It started the day my bonus came in.
- [00:57] Last year, I got $200,000. I earned every dollar by pulling Kelvin through three cash flow crisis.
- [01:05] When I joined eight years ago, Kelvin had just two floors of office space.
- [01:09] Now it fills the whole building and makes nearly $300 million a year.
- [01:14] I won't take all the credit. But half of Kelvin's bank financing, I brought it in.
- [01:26] So Ethan, how'd you do?
- [01:28] You got 200 grand last year.
- [01:29] Must be even more this year, right?
- [01:31] Not bad.
- [01:31] I got 10 grand.
- [01:33] Think about a ski trip.
- [01:34] You?
- [01:34] I had a pretty good year.
- [01:35] 30 grand.
- [01:36] Might finally upgrade my car.
- [01:37] A neppy hire who'd been here six months got 10 grand.
- [01:40] I got two less than a new hire.
- [01:56] Can you check this for me?
- [01:59] 2000, it's correct.
- [02:03] Who set my bonus?
