Deep in the Boss's dungeon lair on a nearby tax haven island...
Listen, E.S., I don't like these damned...these damned...whatever they're called...
Employees, Boss?
That's right. I don't like them any more than you do, but we have to keep them reasonably sweet, otherwise we'll be doing the blasted work ourselves, old man.
Should we pay them their quarterly bonus, then, Boss?
Are you insane? I said sweet, not financially independent. Put those in that chest over there - I have dungeon upkeep costs to pay!
Don't worry, Boss, they'll need a magnifying glass to find their bonus by the time I've finished with it!
