:20:00
What am I gonna do?
Sit on it?
:20:02
First of all...you're not
gonna raise your voice to me.
:20:04
That's first off.
:20:05
You cannot put me, you,
or this firm in jeopardy
:20:08
by putting $100 million
in one idea!
:20:10
Right or wrong? Come on!
:20:11
Right or wrong. Yeah.
:20:13
Listen...
:20:14
I think we're in for
a low number, all right?
:20:17
Like 140, 135.
:20:18
I really don't give a shit
what you think, Frank.
:20:21
You come in here,
you're not even clean-shaven.
:20:23
Stop playing with this fucking
ball and pay attention to me.
:20:26
You come in here drinking your
red bullshit, stink like booze,
:20:29
you're out all night partying --
and that's okay.
:20:32
But when you become a cowboy,
that's when I draw the line.
:20:35
I am still your boss,
:20:36
and I am telling you now --
you sell half those contracts.
:20:39
Do I make myself clear?
:20:40
Do I make myself clear,
Frank?
:20:42
Do I make myself clear to you?
:20:44
Yeah.
:20:45
Yes? Good.
:20:46
Have a good day.
:20:47
And by the way, we're still on
for Friday night.
:20:50
Courtside, front row.
Don't be late.
:20:52
It's mayhem down here
on the floor of the exchange.
:20:54
Within moments, the unemployment
number's gonna be announced.
:20:57
Salomon Brothers,
along with most of the street,
:20:59
feel the number is
going to be high --
:21:02
around 250,000.
:21:03
Solly's looking for
a high number.
:21:06
280,000 is their call.
:21:09
Fuck Salomon Brothers.
:21:10
Fuck, uh --
fuck Salomon Brothers?
:21:13
Yeah, fuck Salomon Brothers.
They're hedging their bets.
:21:15
Want everybody on their side
of the fence.
:21:17
Uh, what's the big deal with
the employment number anyway?
:21:19
- Phellan.
- It's, uh, Phelan.
:21:20
Whatever. Look...
:21:22
More jobs means fewer people
looking for work.
:21:24
Means it's harder to find good
people to fill those jobs.
:21:26
Means you got to raise wages
to get them.
:21:27
Means inflation goes up.
You got it?
:21:29
- Yeah.
- No, I didn't think so.
:21:30
That's why I'm doing
what I'm doing,
:21:32
and you're handing out
junk mail.
:21:33
Now, get off my desk.
:21:34
you're wearing a striped shirt
with a striped tie.
:21:36
You know that, right?
:21:37
Yeah,
I do it for that ladies.
:21:39
Do the ladies ever
tell you that you look like
:21:41
a fucking optical illusion?
:21:43
Yeah?
:21:44
Go away. Disappear.
Come on.
:21:45
I'm out of here.
:21:49
You better hop to, sonny boy.
:21:51
You know, it's funny --
:21:52
I don't see you picking up the
phone to sell those contracts,
:21:55
and I'm pretty sure I just heard
your daddy come over here
:21:57
and cut off your allowance,
so I'm a little surprised.
