The man is a fraternity brother of mine, and a stand up guy. Tom Hicks is one of our alums as well, maybe Ferg should give him a call.
If recent news is any indicator Tom is more interested in raising money than spending it. Dwight and Michael acted out that pitch already:
Michael: Excuse me, Mr. Wallace? David Wallace?
Dwight: Yes? What is the meaning of this?
Michael : Can you tell us why you are shutting down Scranton and putting 15 people out of work?
Dwight: Well, the branch is no longer financially viable. It’s simple dollars and cents.
Michael: Yes, but these are employees, Sir. These are human beings.
Dwight: Listen, Scott… we’re losing money, okay? It’s not a charity; it’s a business. And it’s a dying business.
Frat boys to the rescue!
Not bad for a third year lawyer. I’m guessing family money.
Hey Rugged. I got a dollar that says the state you live in is broke.
