people to save money.

The company must be in some deep

financial sh*t. It appears so.

Now they're trying to make up

for it at the worker's expense.

Have they got all these

workshops under surveillance?

Percy seems to think that the

company has actually got spies in

the workshops which brings me

to the clincher.

There is a bloke being transferred

from the same workshop tomorrow.

He will be here for the

duration. From King's Grove?

Who is he?

I have no idea. Sounds very

much like a spy to me.

You've done a great job for the

company.

David, good luck at Berma

street workshop.

Thank you very much.

Mr. Henry.

Oh, I almost forgot. The

foreman's name is

Jack Simpson. Very well.

(Ominous music)

(Click)

There is no way that I'm

jeopardizing 180 grand. F*** that.

Fifteen years I've given.

Past six months, I've sat

down like some puppet just as

some greasy company ass could

come along and f*** it up.

No way.

We're talking about our future. He

might be one of us. I don't know.

And he might not be. Can't you

find out who he is?

Percy doesn't know.

All he knows is he's being transferred here

so he can be closer to home or something.

They want us to believe that?

There's no way he'll be able to

put up with you a**holes.

We're gonna lose it for sure man.

What about you? What about you?

How's he gonna put up with you

wincing every day.

Oh, don't mess my hair. I'm

modeling tonight.

You're the one that's a f***ing

fag.

If I was a f***ing fag, I

wouldn't go near you.

F*** you. Model prick! Virgin

wop!

(Laughter) What the f*** are

you laughing at junkie?

(Laughter) (Rustling)

Vince stop it! You do that in front of

the new bloke, we'll be fried for sure.

Like I care. Anyway, he's gonna fry

us smoking that sh*t all the time.

That's it Simon. No more

smoking this sh*t! Come on man.

This is bullshit. What are you

doing?

This isn't bullshit. We all

stand to lose a lot of money.

You're just paranoid. He's a spy, alright?

Maybe we're overreacting Jack.

I mean, the guy could be legit.

He may just be one of us.

We're not taking any chances.

Make the most of today boys. We

clean up later.

As of tomorrow, we sit here

like statues for two weeks.

This prick is getting nothing

on us.

(Soft music)

(Soft music)

(Soft music)

(Soft music)

(Soft music) Jack, how would

you describe

sex? Sex is the most fun you

can have without laughing.

Women are funny creatures.

Treat them like a

lady. With respect. Compliment.

Tell them a few jokes. They love humor.

Believe me, it works.

They'll line up on you. Buy

them things.

They love being showered with

gifts.

Show them that you love them

Mark Fitzpatrick

Mark Fitzpatrick (born November 13, 1968) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He moved to Kitimat, British Columbia, where he started minor hockey, when he was ten years old. He won the Memorial Cup twice as a member of the Medicine Hat Tigers before going on to a professional career with the Los Angeles Kings, New York Islanders, Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning and Chicago Blackhawks of the National Hockey League. Fitzpatrick was drafted 27th overall in the 1987 NHL Entry Draft by the Los Angeles Kings but only spent a season with the Kings organization before he was traded along with Wayne McBean to the New York Islanders on February 22, 1989 for Kelly Hrudey. During his time with the Islanders, he contracted Eosinophilia–myalgia syndrome, a potentially fatal neurological disease, which cost him nearly all of the 1990-91 season. He recovered and returned to the ice in February 1992. His efforts in returning to the league after the illness earned him the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy in 1992. On June 20, 1993, with the expansion draft for the Florida Panthers and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim approaching, the Islanders traded him to the Quebec Nordiques for Ron Hextall and a swap of first-round picks. Four days later, the Panthers claimed him in the expansion draft. Fitzpatrick spent five seasons with the Panthers serving as backup goaltender to fellow expansion draft pick John Vanbiesbrouck. On January 16, 1998, Fitzpatrick was traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning with Jody Hull for Dino Ciccarelli and Jeff Norton where he only managed 7 wins in 34 games for the struggling Lightning who finished the season with the worst record. Fitzpatrick was traded once more months later to the Chicago Blackhawks for Michal Sykora and spent the season in a backup capacity to Jocelyn Thibault. He moved to Carolina Hurricanes for the 1999–2000 NHL season but spent the majority of the year in the International Hockey League for the Cincinnati Cyclones and just played three games for the Hurricanes. Fitzpatrick spent one more season in the IHL for the Detroit Vipers before retiring in 2001. more…
