I didn't even know we sold dry erase boards this big.

" - [Chuckles.]
- Or we could all just pick one.
- Oh, yes.
- Pick one, nice.
Fine, so whoever's temp quits first takes the pot? Okay, cool.
I mean, I I worked out all the odds, I guess, for nothing.
But I had fun doing it, so good times.
Who's next? Hey, Glenn.
Excuse me.
Um, do you have a sec to talk? Oh, yeah, sure.
Now's a good time.
Um, here? - You're hurting my leg.
- Okay, look.
You're gonna have to get used to that.
We get a lot of little porkers up here.
Yeah, go on.
[Sighs.]
Well, I was just wondering if there was any way that we could switch around Adam's schedule just so that we're not on the same shifts.
You know, just 'cause I feel like it Okay.
Say no more.
I totally get it, okay? I-I was actually surprised you wanted him to work here, seeing how things are with your marriage.
How things are with my marriage? - How things are with your - What does that mean? [Stammering.]
Not that things are bad.
You know, just that you've been married a long time, - so maybe the spark is gone, or - What? No, no, I mean maybe you hit a rough patch.
Okay, no, no, Glenn.
That's worse.
Okay, um, you know what? Don't listen to me.
I don't know what I'm talking about, you know.
But I do know I got to get back to sitting.
Um okay.
- Well, thank you.
- Yeah.
Well, you were absolutely no help there.
- [All Talking At Once.]
- Amy's husband.
- Who else? - I got $20 on the old bitch.
I got her listed as "Old Lady," but I got you, Myrtle.
- Who else is left? - Uh, let's see.
We have Unibrow, Unibrow 2, Short Guy Tall Hair, and Booklady.
Oh, I'll take Booklady.
No, I wanted her.
I hate her.

Splitsies.
- Yes.
- All right! The joy of sport, bringing people together.
Which temp will quit next? [Water Spilling.]
Don we now our gay apparel And that's it next to a golf ball just for scale.
- Oh.
- That polyp is huge, right? Glenn said the weirdest thing to me.
Okay, I guess it's Amy time now.
- She does that.
- Yeah.
He was like, "I'm surprised you wanted Adam to work here, given 'how things are in your marriage.
" [Laughs.]
- Crazy.
- [Laughs.]
- Shh.
- I know.
It's crazy.
- Right? - [Laughs.]

I'm not uncomfortable.
I just keep thinking of funny things.
Anyways, uh, I I'm gonna go.
[Laughs.]
- I'll come too.
- Sorry.
[Laughing.]
Oh, no.
There's no one to make an announcement.
Why are there all these chairs? Stupid temps.
Look, the reason they're all eager to get away is because they all agree with Glenn.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Good girl talk.
I was just opening up some shampoo boxes, and I think I extended my box cutter too much.
So it's kind of a mess.
Who do I call to clean that up? You.
You call you.
Okay.
Well, sorry I don't know how everything works here, considering I just started, and the I mean, I-I haven't even been trained on the box cutter, so - What was that for? - Nothing.
Just felt like kissing you.
Oh, I guess I should start using this shampoo, huh? [Both Laugh.]
[Laughs Loudly.]
- That's you're so funny.
- [Laughs.]
[With Robotic Voice.]
I am from the future.
[Laughs Loudly.]
I am Shampoo Man.
I'm coming to get you.
- I - Okay.
I don't get it, but it's great.
It's a shampoo he's a Shampoo Man.
Love you.
Shampoo Man! Oh, well, that looks like absolute crap.
- Hey.
Hey.
- Yeah? - How's it going? - Not good.
Listen, so, um, I'm not supposed to tell you this, but it's actually after 3:00, so if you quit now, they got to pay you for a full day.
- Okay.
- Huh? Yeah, thanks, but, uh, I need to stop quitting everything just because it's hard.
Right, right, right.
But you you said you were gonna quit, so now now is the time.
- Whatever.
- No, no, no, no! Not whatever.
Not whatever! No, you you made a promise, and, uh, I personally would rather be a quitter than a liar, so Maybe I'm just crazy.
[Chuckles.]
Maybe.
Hey.
[With British Accent.]
My name's Jonah.
I couldn't possibly wager on people quitting their jobs.
Well, you started it, so [With Normal Voice.]
No, what I started was a simple wager where no one got hurt.
You were trying to make him quit, which is so much more awesome.
I wish I would have thought of it sooner.
I wasted a lot of good years.
So the bet's still on? It's on like Kublai Khan.
You have to be ready for anything because the questions are gonna be coming fast and furious.
Like, "How can you deliver presents to billions of children in one night?" - Santa One.
- Elves.
Elves? No.
Elves make the presents.
- By Christmas, their job's done.
- Whoo! Whoo! Hi, Glenn! He's a horse! - I'm a horse! - Go! Go! Okay, uh, let's talk about dealing with the Jewish kids.
Hey, man, what you into? What do you love? What do you hate? Let's do hate first.
Uh, I hate war.
Ooh, well, that's a bold stance.
How about more like how about this place? What's the worst part about working here? I guess not seeing my son all day.
That'll work.
[Run-Dmc'S "Christmas In Hollis".]
Mm, hey, white girl.
You looking real good today.
[Blubbers.]
I want this whole floor sparkling.
The floor? You mean the ground? Heck yeah, I do.
Or if you don't like it, you're also welcome to quit.
You're actually doing it.
Wow.
I just got sexually harassed.
Oh, my gosh.
I'm so sorry.
I really hope you're okay.
- Because you feel great.
- Okay.
[Shoes Squeaking.]
Come in, come in, quick.
Oh, oh, I remember this place.
Yeah, remember we used to Whoa, whoa.
What's making you so hot and heavy all of a sudden? It's not all of a sudden.
You just look really cute in this vest.
- Ow.
Ow! - What? What's wrong? What's wrong? What-something's - It's stabbing me in the back.
- Okay.
Oh, I think I found it.
You know what? That's my hand.
Let me do it.
- Oh, yeah.
- Okay.
Hey, I thought you guys didn't have a large-format printer.
Yeah, I guess we have a large-format printer.
- Found it.
- All right.
- Metal thing.
- 'Cause when I need to print out banners for my travel agency, you said you didn't have one, so - Who cares? - I care.
We didn't have banners, and my business failed.
No, Adam, your business failed because nobody uses travel agencies anymore due to a little thing called the Internet.
Oh, here we go with the Internet again, huh? Yeah, because it exists.
Look, do you want to fight about this printer, or do you want to have sex? I mean, I want yeah, sex.
- Okay, so shut up.
- Okay, yeah.
This next song is very near and dear to my heart because it reminds me of my father.
My child arrived just the other day He came to the world in the usual way You should be ashamed of yourself.
You started it.
I'm just finishing it.
Oh, I don't know about that.
All it's gonna take is for this tower to fall over and my guy's walking out the door.
Looks pretty steady to me.
No, no, that thing is way too narrow.
Come on, baby.
Come on, baby, come on, come on.
Give it to Daddy.

Give Daddy what he wants! Give it to Daddy! Give Daddy that sugar.

Come on, baby.
I quit, all right? - Yes! Yes.
- I quit.
Come on, baby, yeah! Told you, I get carried away when I gamble.
You should have seen me last time.
What happened last time? It was nothing, just a little online poker thing in college.
I had to sell my brother's Camry.
- It's not a big deal.
- Wait, what? [Can Clattering.]
- [Whistle Blows.]
- Keep smiling! [Whistling.]
Is that opera? - No.
- No? - You all right, Glenn? - Mm? Oh.
One of the temporary workers quit.
- Oh, oh, that's a shame.
- Mm.
But, you know, it happens all the time, right? - These guys quit early.
- Yeah, I know.
It's I'm just disappointed 'cause I hired them from my church's Last Chances program.
- But I guess, you know - Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Last Chances? - Yeah, yeah.
You know, they're sort of former drug addicts or kids with criminal records who can't find work anywhere else.
- So - [Whistle Blows.]
Come on, Santa Three.
Jesus gave you knees.
Pick them up.
These poor souls are just looking for a break and you turned this into Thunderdome.
Yeah, I feel terrible.
I didn't realize they were Last Chances.
I did.
I thought that was why we were betting on them.
Whoo! Is it hot in here today? Do I look flushed to you? What do you mean by flushed? Do you mean tired? Because you always look tired.
Oh, my back hurts.
That table in the photo lab is really uncomfortable.
The photo lab? Oops.

- Well Oh, uh, what did you say this pays? - Pays? - Yeah, how much is the pay? Well, no no, you get to be Santa.

You know, just 'cause I feel like it Okay.
Say no more.
I totally get it, okay? I-I was actually surprised you wanted him to work here, seeing how things are with your marriage.
How things are with my marriage? - How things are with your - What does that mean? [Stammering.]

That's worse.

[Laughing.]
Oh, no.
There's no one to make an announcement.
Why are there all these chairs? Stupid temps.
Look, the reason they're all eager to get away is because they all agree with Glenn.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Good girl talk.
I was just opening up some shampoo boxes, and I think I extended my box cutter too much.
So it's kind of a mess.
Who do I call to clean that up? You.
You call you.
Okay.
Well, sorry I don't know how everything works here, considering I just started, and the I mean, I-I haven't even been trained on the box cutter, so - What was that for? - Nothing.

[Chuckles.]
Maybe.
Hey.
[With British Accent.]
My name's Jonah.
I couldn't possibly wager on people quitting their jobs.
Well, you started it, so [With Normal Voice.]
No, what I started was a simple wager where no one got hurt.
You were trying to make him quit, which is so much more awesome.
I wish I would have thought of it sooner.
I wasted a lot of good years.
So the bet's still on? It's on like Kublai Khan.
You have to be ready for anything because the questions are gonna be coming fast and furious.
Like, "How can you deliver presents to billions of children in one night?" - Santa One.

- Found it.
- All right.
- Metal thing.
- 'Cause when I need to print out banners for my travel agency, you said you didn't have one, so - Who cares? - I care.
We didn't have banners, and my business failed.
No, Adam, your business failed because nobody uses travel agencies anymore due to a little thing called the Internet.
Oh, here we go with the Internet again, huh? Yeah, because it exists.
Look, do you want to fight about this printer, or do you want to have sex? I mean, I want yeah, sex.
- Okay, so shut up.
- Okay, yeah.
