- Richard Hendricks: So they fired me before they hired you, so it's not your fault. I just I feel like this can't really work. Do you understand?
- Jack Barker: I do, Richard.
- Richard Hendricks: It's like... can I really be expected to do my best work when I am constantly feeling undervalued at the company that I started? Does that make sense?
- Jack Barker: It does, Richard. Absolutely. I hear each and every one of your concerns loud and clear, and I appreciate your position.
- Richard Hendricks: Mm.
- Jack Barker: So, I guess we just won't do it. Come on, I'll walk you out.
- Richard Hendricks: Wait. What? Sorry. You what? Jack? Sorry, I don't understand. You're not gonna take the job?
- Jack Barker: Not if you're not. Without you handling the tech, I don't see how this company works.
- Richard Hendricks: Wow. I mean, yeah, I agree.
- Jack Barker: Richard, it's hard enough running a business when everyone is on the same page. And clearly, we are not.
- Richard Hendricks: Well yeah.
- Jack Barker: No, no, it's fine, and I appreciate you being so honest with me. I mean, better we find out now, right?
