Quotes 

• Ross Harper : Eileen, I have to do a student internship for six weeks and it'd really mean a lot if you hire me.

  Eileen Swift : Hmmm. No one else has a student intern. This would make me look very important. Almost regal!

• Eileen Swift : First, a little test to see if you've got what it takes to work for Miss Eileen J. Swift.

  Ross Harper : Fire away.

  Eileen Swift : Okay, here's a situation. I'm taking a three hour lunch. You know and I know there's a hat sale at Saks. My boss asks you where I am. What do you say?

  Ross Harper : At your uncle's funeral.

  Eileen Swift : Good, shows some thought.

  Ross Harper : Well, thank you!

  Eileen Swift : Don't be cocky, it gets much harder. I send you to a rival company's headquarters to steal some very sensitive documents. A security guard catches you in the act. What do you say?

  Ross Harper : Hello, I'm the cleaning woman.

  Eileen Swift : Alright, alright, let's move up to the lightning round. I have been indicted for stock manipulation. You are on the witness stand. The prosecutor starts asking you questions that could put me away for the rest of my natural life! What do you do?

  Ross Harper : Pass out!

  [Eileen shakes Ross's hand] 

• Leon : The last time I saw you, why, you were in diapers! Look at you, here you are! I could just burst!

• Stiv Miltman : You want a stressful job, try the yogurt field.

  Ross Harper : What are you talkin' about?

  Ross Harper : I don't know.

  Stiv Miltman : Women.

  Ross Harper : That sounds great!

  Stiv Miltman : BIG women. Big HUNGRY women. On diets. They haven't eaten all day. They come into our store, they want yogurt, and they want it BAD.

• Ross Harper : I'm not as great as everybody thinks I am! I'm a fraud.

  Stiv Miltman : This is news?
