nikkas really dapping up Harry? Y'all forgot that dude lucked up into his position? They were gonna let him go and last minute, in a panic he made up the position at SC. Not to mention Joan was doing his job better than he was when she filled in for him. He may be an asset, but I don't think he's irreplaceable. He's just lucky he's in an area the partners don't really understand yet. That shytty ass pitch he made to Kens dad shows a bit how incompetent he is.

Hate him all you want, but how can you call a pitch than generates that much business "shytty" and him incompetent for generating said business? :wtf:

Dude's "shytty" pitch got him 23k just in commission, which was more than a year of salary, which is the equivalent of 143k today.

His "shytty" pitch got the company a ton of money.

Ken came to him with a problem, he said :ehh: "I got you", and had a deal in place with ABC, Joe Namath and other celebrities quick as hell.

We're gonna have to agree to disagree here. She's always been essential but they were never gonna make her partner but instead of Peggy who left she decided to stay for 5% of the company. Harry and her used to work side by side in the beginning and neither was seen as better than the other it's just both are overlooked for specific reasons. They would probably let Harry walk too because they don't really respect him fully either.

:mindblown: What? Joan was clearly seen as better...

its TV at the beginning... people don't understand it yet and are throwing money at it... dude lucked up and is starting to feel himself... respect his "hustle" for getting lucky but don't sit there and act like HE'S bringing this money off of his talent... Joan, herself is WAY more valuable to the company than Harry... how do we know that he couldn't have brought in 55k instead of the 23k he brought?

It's like IT, (not to shyt on IT brehs) companies pay big money to dudes cause they don't understand computers... im sure there are plenty of dudes making alot of money, skating by because of peoples lack of knowledge... we've all heard the stories of dudes collecting checks for googling problems...

man Roger is essential, comic relief, hedonism personified, thats who Don doesn't want to be when he's Rogers age, but he's heading that way now. Dude is almost my favorite character, Joan/Betty i can do without, I like Megan and Peggy, no issue with female characters...but Joan is tiresome, not that attractive to me, and I rarely sympathize with her, just find her to be unlikable, manipulative, host of other unattractive qualities.

I'm surprised they haven't used Roger more this season. He was on fire last season with his quips and jokes :dead:
