Being a broker is the old "buy'em low, sell 'em high game. After the one o'clock bell, brokers have fifteen minutes to close their market orders. This is done by shouting your bids and positioning your hands. Palms out means sell, palms in means buy. I can assure you it's a fun game to win. San Francisco, California, from the "Working" series

I am here to promote the new Concorde service. Air France has already purchased four of these planes and has just established service between Paris and Rio, Caracas and Washington, D.C. This is the greatest and the most beautiful aircraft ever built. It can travel at Mach 2 and it will change the way we think about flying forever. I am proud to represent the future., from the "Working" series
