Quote context

[...]

- Did you see him?

- I'm not going to stand for this much longer. What does that man want of me, anyway? And why does he always have to pick on me?

- Well, you are his oldest employee.

- Well, that's a fine reason.

- He picks on me, too. The other day he called me an idiot. What could I do? I said, Yes, Mr. Matuschek I'm an idiot. I'm no fool.

- Listen, maybe he has business worries. Or maybe he has some trouble with his wife.

- Is that true, Pirovitch? Is he having trouble with his wife?

- I don't know it's none of my business. I'm talking to Kralik. What do you want? And I don't know anything. Leave me alone, please.

- Kralik, don't be impulsive. Not at a time like this. Not when millions of people are out of work.

- I can get a job anywhere.

- Can you? Let's be honest.

- Anyway, I'll take a chance. I'm no coward, you know. I'm not afraid.

- I am. I have a family.

- Well, I haven't.

- Think it over. Those were nice letters, weren't they?

- It's already been paid for. Just leave it downstairs at the desk.

- Mr. Kralik, do you think I'll have to work tonight too? After all, I'm a child.

- No, you don't have to stay.

- Do you mean it?

- Yeah, I'll straighten it out with Mr. Matuschek.

- Thanks, Mr. Kralik!
