To the left of the man who\u2019s speaking is a violin player, the kind you might see in certain Italian restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>Violin music is often used to create a sad mood, so I thought the man behind the desk might be terminating his employee:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u201cJenkins, we\u2019ve had a rough quarter\u2026.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cNormally, you\u2019d get severance pay, but we spent it on this guy.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cWe also feel bad, so we spent your severance pay on this sad music.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A violinist is not the only musician you\u2019ll find in a restaurant. German establishments sometimes have polka bands. Because the music they play is upbeat, I thought of this caption: <strong>\u201cIf you were getting a raise, I\u2019d have hired a polka band.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, I tried to think of a good title for the piece of music the violinist is playing: <strong>\u201cIt\u2019s called \u2018Requiem for a Sales Manager.\u2019\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s see how you did:<\/p>\n<p>These three captions suggest the violinist is in the office to create a somber mood appropriate for the delivery of bad news:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>&#8220;He&#8217;s not here because you&#8217;re getting a raise.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I think you know where this conversation is going.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;It&#8217;s to put me in the mood.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Violin music, of course, is not always sad. It can also be romantic, and these next three entries cleverly allude to both business and romance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Tom, I hope you won&#8217;t think it inappropriate of me to ask, but will you go out with me?&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I&#8217;m sorry, but I have to reject your proposal.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;It&#8217;s not you, it&#8217;s us.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here are two variations on my joke about the polka band:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;If you were being promoted, I would have hired the mariachi band.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;If it were good news, I would have brought in the cymbals.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And here are this week\u2019s nine best puns:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I want you to play a more instrumental role.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I&#8217;ll be conducting the interview.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Other than a job, any requests?&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Any last requests?&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;As usual, you came in late.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;You&#8217;ll be going out on a high note.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Management feels it&#8217;s time you go solo.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;He&#8217;ll accompany you to the door.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;On that note, you&#8217;re fired.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This next entry\u2014a reference to the size of Brunhilde, the Valkyrie whose farewell scene in Wagner\u2019s <em>Ring Cycle<\/em> lasts nearly twenty minutes and leads directly to the end of the 15-hour opera\u2014suggests that management was initially hoping to use another kind of music to let the employee know his time with the company is over: <strong>&#8220;Because the fat lady was unavailable.&#8221;<\/strong> That\u2019s a great caption, but it would be even better without the first word.<\/p>\n<p>Some people (no one I care for, but some people) sarcastically dismiss another person\u2019s sad news by pretending to play the violin. That callous behavior may have inspired this entry: <strong>&#8220;OK. Let&#8217;s hear your excuse&#8230;.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These next two captions allude to the music that conductors are instructed to start playing whenever an Oscar-winner gives an acceptance speech that goes on too long:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;He&#8217;s here to play you off the premises.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;We&#8217;re playing you off.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The next four entries acknowledge the value and cost of the violinist\u2019s performance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Please accept this concerto in lieu of a severance package.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;A serenade is more heartfelt than a bonus.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t say we were cutting costs everywhere.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I could give you a raise, yes, but then I&#8217;d have to let Antonio here go.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And finally, we have, <strong>&#8220;We&#8217;ll discuss salary and benefits after intermission.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This week\u2019s winner is, <strong>&#8220;He&#8217;s not here because you&#8217;re getting a raise.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/cartoonstock.com\/blog\/cartoon-caption-contest\/\">ENTER THIS WEEK&#8217;S CAPTION CONTEST<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Lawrence Wood has won The New Yorker\u2019s Cartoon Caption Contest a record-setting seven times and been a finalist four other times.
