Michael:...thing in the morning. Love to start my morning with a hearty bowl of Jan.
Jan:Michael.
Michael:[singing] Just call me Levinson in the morning, baby.
Jan:Michael.
Michael:Yes.
Jan:I am here to tell you that we are closing the Scranton branch.
Michael:I don't understand.
Jan:The board voted last night to close your branch.
Michael:On whom's authority?
Jan:The board's.
Michael:What?
Jan:I'm very sorry. I don't relish telling you this. You've been a big part of this company, and the board asked me to thank you for your years of service.
Michael:You're welcome.
Jan:A small number of people will be transferred to the Stamford branch, and the rest will be getting severance packages.
Michael:Am I a small number person or a severance package person?
Jan:Well, we haven't made final decisions about personnel yet. But you're a severance package person.
Michael:Oh... [burrys head in hands] Oh, my god. Oh, my god! I don't really get it 'cause we're not doing that bad and our numbers are gonna come up.
Jan:Well, it's not all about numbers, Michael.
Michael:Well...
Jan:It's... it's about talent.
Michael:Oh, you gotta be... Josh?
Jan:Our CFO believes that Josh is going to play an important role in our company's future.
Michael:Oh really, what role is that? King of the stupid universe?
