Go Jump in the Lake

Personal notice, dangerous my stock and trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you got a job for me, George Valentine. Right full details. Standard Oil Company of California on behalf of independent chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the West Invites you to let George do it.

Go jump in the lake, another adventure of George Valentine. Dear Mr. Valentine, or rather I should say, dear Miss Brooks. Miss Brooks, because if you're anything like I am, you open all your bosses letters.

And now that you have it's really you that I'm writing to Miss Brooks. I need your help to get Mr. Valentine's help. You see, I work for the same kind of a man you do.

He likes trouble and so he's always in it. His name is Terence Doyle and he's Vice President of the Consolidated Machine Tool Company. Of course he would never, never admit how desperately he needs help and right now.

So please Ms. Brooks, bring that help quick. Otherwise it won't be long until I'm taking dictation from a corpse. It's sincerely Ms. Mona Chandler. Well let's try this one, Angel. I think you're in the wrong office.

Excuse us, we were just looking for a... The change department's down in the next floor, employment's out at the planet. We're looking for Ms. Mona Chandler. She's a, she's an old friend of mine. Oh, well Ms. Chandler's pretty busy this afternoon.

I asked you to run through some financial statements. Oh sure, sure, we realize, but... You did, huh? That's right. And she's out. Perhaps if you called later, you couldn't speak. Oh, so I'm a liar. You got back to quickness, Chandler. Any reason?
