Lol, do you think that guy quit his job after...


that?

Well, most people are idiots with bad taste...so there!

After....?

If you are thinking about the segment where the employer is berating his employee before he actually "gives him a hand", then I would imagine that his entire company suffered, went out of business, and everyone lost their job. That, or the employer had to spend several months recuperating and getting used to not being as heavy handed (pun intended) which would probably lead him to think about how he should be treating people. Mind you, I probably would have quit but then again, would also be tempted to remain and give the prick a smirk now and again but then, as we've seen with Tales and now Vault, karma always has a way of coming back around.

Yes, you're correct...I was referring to the guy in the printer's office whose boss lost his hands.

I'll let you know when I come-up with a new signature, .

This is a good question that you asked. After more thinking, I would probably imagine that his company suffered and everyone lost their jobs as losing both hands would probably wipe out any desire to run a business. He looked like he was the only one who wanted to be in charge so I doubt very seriously if he hired an assistant, which he probably would have had to do. Bad timing too because 1973 was the start of a serious recession.

I assumed that the handless guy bled out right there in the office. Hence, he wouldn't be alive to fire anybody.
