Factotum Page #2
we're going to keep their money.
- Suppose they win?
- They won't.
They have a way of
always picking the wrong horse.
Suppose they bet our horse?
Then we know
we've got the wrong horse.
Go, Spitfire!
Yes! Way to go!
- You married, Manny?
- No way.
- Women?
- Sometimes.
- But it never lasts.
- What's the problem?
A woman is like a full-time job.
- I suppose there is an emotional drain.
- Physical too.
They want to f*** night and day.
Well. Get one you like to f***.
Yes, but if you drink or gamble they
think it's a put down of their love.
Get one who
likes to drink, gamble and f***.
I bought some expensive clothes
and shoes.
The owner of the Warehouse
didn't look so powerful anymore.
Manny and I took
a little longer with our lunches -
- and came back smoking cigars.
The new life didn't sit well with Jan.
She was used to her four fucks a day
and seeing me poor and humble.
Mr. Horseplayer!
Mr. Big Horseplayer!
I used to like the way
Like you were walking through walls.
Like nothing mattered.
Now you've got a few bucks in your
pocket, you're not the same anymore.
You act like you're
a dental student or a plumber.
Don't give me any sh*t about plumbers.
- We haven't made love in two weeks.
- Love takes many forms.
You haven't f***ed me in two weeks.
Have some patience. In six months
we'll be vacationing in Rome, in Paris.
Look at you! Pouring yourself that good
whiskey and letting me drink this crap.
- Mr. Big-Time Horseplayer!
- I give you soul.
I give you wisdom and light
and music and some laughter!
By the way,
I am the world's greatest horseplayer.
Horseshit!
No, horseplayer!
I understood too well that great
lovers were always men of leisure.
I f***ed better as a bum
than as a puncher of time clocks.
- I've always wanted to go there.
- It's quite nice, actually.
I tried to make a woman out of you,
but you're nothing but a whore!
If anybody here doesn't like
what I just did, then say something!
Sit down, Chinaski.
You knew we were going to let you go.
- Bosses are never hard to fathom.
- You've been slacking for over a month.
- I've been busting my ass!
- No you haven't!
I've given you my time.
For pitiful $6 an hour.
Remember, you begged for this job.
I give you my time, so you can live
in your big house. I've been the loser.
- You understand?
- All right, Chinaski. Just go.
Listen, Mantz. I don't want any trouble
about my unemployment payments.
You guys are always trying to cheat
the working man out of his rights.
You'll get your unemployment.
Now get the hell out of here!
