“Come hell or high water!â€
That was one of my former manager's favorite phrases:
“We're going to get sales up come hell or high water!† â€You're gonna get that account come hell or high water!† â€Our team is going to be #1 come hell or high water!â€
Oh sure, he'd pepper meetings with other phrases and axioms, but this one was the clear favorite.
So one day the idea popped into my head â€" what if both things happened? I mean, it's bound to happen eventually, right? How bad would that be?
I almost raised my hand and asked about the possibility in a meeting once, but instead I just tucked it away in my brain for later use in this cartoon.
