:13:29
You wanted to see me?
:13:31
I'd have to say you're the worst carpenter
I ever worked with in my entire life.

:13:35
How did you get this job?
:13:37
Jack Radosta hired me on.
:13:40
I guess he thought
he owed me a couple of favors.

:13:42
Jack's a good man.
Bad gambler, but he's a good man.

:13:47
I know I'm no good at any of this stuff.
:13:49
But Jack's been showing me some things.
If I work harder...

:13:52
-and I try as hard as I can--
-Relax, you're not getting fired.

:13:56
As a matter of fact,
I've decided to move you up...

:13:58
and make you head of supplies.
:14:01
That's a promotion, son.
:14:03
-More money, nice bonuses.
-Thanks.

:14:07
I figure, out of all the men here,
you're probably most qualified for that job.

:14:11
Why do you say that?
:14:13
You're the pool hustler, ain't you?
:14:15
If I need a few truckloads of steel
to disappear off this site...

:14:18
I know I can count on you
to make it happen, right?

:14:21
You get taken care of, I get taken care of,
and everybody's happy.

:14:26
And the heaviest thing
you ever have to lift around here...

:14:30
is a clipboard.
:14:35
Well?
:14:39
I'm sorry, Bill.
I think you got the wrong guy.

:14:42
-What?
-Tell Jack I said thanks, okay?

:14:45
You don't do as I say...
:14:47
then you and Jack will both
be looking for work somewhere else.

:14:50
Then you can tell Jack I said we're even.
