I can see it now. The new MD clapping his hands as he hears the news of another off the books, running back to his dirty PC and opening his spreadsheet. Things are tight - everything is formatted to two decimal places. "Wow", he says, beaming at Karl, his shiny head reflecting the overhead fluorescent lighting into a halo, surely a bringer of good news. "Well?" says Karl, his voice pitching higher with every word "so gimme the news, gimme the news, the good, surely not bad, gimme the good first, even if there is a bad, but please, (it's not a game you know!) just gimme the good news". The MD leans back in his chair, glare deflected and somehow looking more mortal. "With him and Rev, and the others we've lost, it looks like you can add another £30 to the goal bonus!" he exclaims....."assuming he doesn't come in and score more than what we saved in wages...because if that happens Karl, it will really f**k up my spreadsheet" - oh to be a fly on the wall
