We'll take it from there.
I like what you're saying.
I need to like what you're doing
a little more.
Thank you.
- How'd it go?
- Good.
Hello, gentlemen.
I'm Richard Wehlner.
Thank you for your valuable time.
Nice to meet you, sir.
Richard Wehlner.
Hi. How do you do?
Thank you for your valuable time.
In Canada, we don't say-
"Cutting the cheese" simply means
cutting the actual cheese.
It doesn't have a double thing,
so I just missed it.
Because in Canada, it's "cracking. "
- The expression.
- It's "cracking" in Canada. Yeah.
We "crack the cheese. "
"Cracking it"?
"Cracking the cheese"?
that Rogelio...
had been given
an intra-Deli award...
for cutting the actual cheese.
I'm sorry.
had been given an intra-Deli-
Listen. We have permit delays.
We're on hold this month.
We won't be deciding for a few weeks.
Make up the ground.
- Okay?
- Okay.
Then that's all.
Well, thank you for gimme-
for giving me your valuable time.
Thank you for your time. I appreciate it.
Thank you, sir, for your time.
Thank you for this- for this moment.
Thank you very much, Mr. Cranston.
Appreciate it.
Thank you very much, sir, for your time
today. You are a valuable person to me.
And I am sorry
about this cutting business.
That's the end of that.
No more cheese business.
Last stop, financial district.
So I never got to go over my cool
bullet points because of the fart gag joke.
It was uncool.
Why don't you
forget about it for now?
I want you to blow off some steam.
I have an idea.
I signed us up for dance lessons.
- Oh, I don't know.
- Let's go for it.
- Let's do salsa. It's so beautiful.
- Not when I do it.
It's gonna be,
because you're a beautiful guy.
I don't know if I can do it.
Here, sweetie. Ready?
Don't worry.
I'm not gonna backslide.
All right. Let's go dancin'.
Ready? Whoo!
- How many pages is that?
- Eight pages.
It's so quiet.
Okay. Now we just need that $12,000 check-
If I can't make the big 10% down payment
in August, I can get this back, right?
Like, uh, if I don't get this job
that I thought I was gonna get?
Um, you forfeit that.
It will be a forfeiture in that amount.
- Is that bad?
- Yes.
"Forfeit," as in, you don't
get the money back.
It's so they're not hung out to dry...
and it's also a way
of preventing schmucks...
from trying to purchase
houses they can't afford.
Yeah. Schmucks.
- What are you talking about?
- Schmucks who buy houses they can't afford.
- Are there really schmucks like that?
- Well, every once in a while...
we'll encounter a schmuck like that-
not often.
- Hey! Man, what the hell?
- Ah!
Holy sh*t.
- That was "Teddy"?
- Yeah.
- He's smaller than I imagined.
- Yeah, well, he's got a lot of stamina.
It took us five years to save $ 12,000...
and I might have
just schmucked it away.
a nice recovering drug guy...
but if I could slide ahead ofhim at the
company retreat, I was going to do it.
Hey, leaders in quality foods,
the Donaldson's difference- it's people.
And all of you-
here's the great news- are people.
Now concentration allows you
to shut out distraction.
Shutting out distraction, gang,
allows you...
to accomplish your goals
and achieve new heights!
Get it in here, Chicagoland Donaldson's.
Come on.
Tout de suite it in here, make a stack
ofhands. Right here in the middle.
Let's go.
Bunch ofhands, here we go. Ready?
Now let's make it happen on "one. "
Ready on "one"? One!
Let's make it happen!
Here we go. Let's go.
You can do this, Mitch. Concentration.
And... block out distraction. Easy.
Here we go, Aaron.
That's it. That's it. That's it!
Doug, you can do it.
Block out distraction.
Block out distraction.
Very good.
What do you think, Richard?
Here we go. And-
It's not hot! It's not hot!
You've essentially attained your goal.
Blockin' out distractions!
Who's next?
Who's next?
Let's do it, Steve. You've got it.
You've got it. You've got it!
This guy's done this before, right?
You did this before on some weird island?
Here we go.
Hey, burgundy jumpsuit!
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
Scott, you just concentrate,
concentrate, concentrate.
He didn't block out the distractions.
- Just get in the pool. You can try it again.
- Stop!
That's all right.
This is why we sign waivers, everybody.
All right. Put the bags
on over your head. Everyone.
Right over the top.
Perfect. Okay.
Now, I want you to take off one thing
that you don't need... quickly! Come on!
Let's take something else off
that you really don't need... right away!
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm. Something else you
don't need. Let's make it happen. Come on!
- Something else you don't need.
Come on. Let's go.
Something completely unnecessary.
Doug, can we take our sack off?
What?
- Did you take your sack off?
- I can't really hear you.
People, take off one more thing that you
simply do... not... need.
- Do it.
- F***.
Okay, um-
All right, everybody that still has a bag
on top of their heads, scream...
"My concentration skills
need improvement. "
- One, two, three.
- My concentration skills need improvement!
Easy with the laughter.
Easy with that.
That's enough. All right.
- Who's up for some team building, huh?
Let's do it!
Let's head over
to the productivity obstacle course.
Guy, slap the clothes back on.
Let's just watch the assumptions.
That's all it is.
Yeah, is this Chicagoland Pepsi?
Connect to Kevin Conoway, please?
Richard Wehlner.
Brighten the week with a
sweet from Donaldson's...
the champion of excellence.
Scott, lot the full week?
Pepsi's sending a new season of stuff.
- PepsiCo's chips and paperware-
- That's six days of bad cards from the lot.
I got two weeks before the board
decides about Augusta.
That's one week of suck cards.
Come on, Fargas.
- What, are you callin' me by my last name now?
- Scott.
Kevin wants Richard. That's Pepsi.
You know what? I'm takin' lot. Give it
to me. They got lot concerns at Augusta.
I'm gonna get some prime lot cards.
I'm gonna show 'em I can do it.
- Awesome.
- I'm gonna jam for six days.
Awesome.
Let's make it happen!
Hey, remove yourself! Get your pizza
off there. Get your butt off my car!
F*** you, Mr. Chopsticks.
You Chungking f*** ass.
Hey, show some respect! Where is someone?
That's addressed to the board,
for the cards.
They want the fresh ones.
Gordon "Jiminy. " A kid hanging
out in your lot kidney punched me...
because I offended him,
I guess, by doing nothing.
Kidney punched me.
There's a little bit
of a lack of security in your lot...
'cause your security guy
was sleeping in my car.
Okay. The, uh-
The f***ing chip is fixed...
