Difficult Decisions in Professional Settings
Ted Kramer You're firing me?
Jim O'Connor Yeah, I'm letting you go, yes.
Ted Kramer Why?
Jim O'Connor Now, look, Ted, this is a very painful thing for me. You don't know how badly I feel,. I've been getting a lot of pressure from the guys upstairs, and there wasn't anything else I could do. I thought a lot about this and it's really better this way. If I took your stripes... if I put you on a schlock account, you'd hate it, and me for doing it. This way it's a clean break. And believe me, that's the best thing.
Ted Kramer You know my wife is fighting me for custody?. You know that we're going to court?. Do you know what my chances are if I'm out of a job?.
Jim O'Connor Look, I understand that you're upset...
Ted Kramer I don't want to beg, but I'm asking you, please, as a friend. Ah?... I'm asking you.
Jim O'Connor You're an extremely bright guy. You've got a hell of a talent. You're gonna land on your feet. You're gonna survive...Teddy, look. I know you may be short on cash. No big hurry about paying this back.
Ted Kramer Shame on you.
