[He's walking and talking now, albeit in hushed tones, tracing the path of the wire. It's never really occurred to Sho that the employees below him would be on different rates; he's only ever really thought of it as him getting paid more, and them - including Jim - getting paid less.]
I know this is hard to believe, but I wasn't hired to babysit you, Sakurai.
[ Jim wonders if the other man even notices the wire continuing further than its intended modem device. He realises he forgot to fully factor in the concept of Sakurai's intelligence, something he has to pay for dearly now. ]
'Head of Sales' doesn't translate to 'watch over employer's son'.
[Sho scowls again, realising the contradiction. His distaste is relatively subtle at this point, seeing as there are people around, but his irritation is, as ever, obvious.]
I'm asking you to look at a wire, not wipe my ass and put me to bed.
[The man has an answer for everything, and it's infuriating. Jim must know full well what hemeans, but he's deliberately choosing to be awkward about it - as usual.]
Look, can we discuss the terms of your employment later?
[He delivers a stern glare to the few people who have stuck heads over desks to watch them, and starts examining the modem.]

I guess you get paid extra for babysitting duties, huh.

[He's found the continuation of the wire now. Frowns.]
...does this look right to you?

I was thinking of leaving you alone, since I babysit you so much.

If I've been babysitting, [ Jim goes pensive ] then that means I've done all that, right?
Pretty sure I haven't, though.
