Michael, Jim and others in “Weight Loss”

Michael

Thank you. Holly is right. People, this is not just about winning some extra vacation days. This is about a very cool HR initiative that if we don't follow, we are all going to die of obesity. So how much are we gonna lose?

Jim

I would like to lose 65 pounds.

Michael

Yes, all right. Who else? [to Angela] Can I put you down for 10 pounds?

Angela

No. My doctor wants me to gain weight.

Michael

If you gain weight, you will die. I want you to live forever. I want us all to live forever. How? How are we going to do this?

Jim

Cryogenics. Beer me five.

Michael

This is how we're gonna do it. Five pounds. I'm asking each of you to lose five pounds. That plus Jim's 65 will give us a very good chance at winning this thing.
