That’s so big of you dad.

En-titled

i bet his picture is already on the wall in the break room!

Sorry. Things have been slow and we’re going to have to let you go. :)

Possibly for Outstanding Work folding his bedsheets

At Walmart you would be “associate” of the month! Take that to your bank!

You are doing so well that we’re to give you more responsibilities.

Yeah, if you could go ahead and start working weekends too…

… that would be greeaaaat!

Since the kid wants more money, he could mow yards, rake leaves, wash cars, deliver papers, etc….

Bet he’s an only child

I sort of like that. No raise but an increase in title. It’ll look good on my resume.

Our young friend is learning an valuable lesson about how raises are expensive but fancy titles and honors arent.

Good parental training!

Now you are learning kid, Atta Boys, don’t put any money in your shorts.

How about we give you a fancy title instead.

The Dad is definitely a small business owner.

Ask for cost of living raise or go see Mom.

I think it’s time to send in his Financial Advisor, Bleeb, to negotiate. :)

Nothing to see here, Bleeb. Keep looking.

That should come with some kind of bonus.
