e roof(very angry) because a broker had parked in the president's personal parking place.
\"I'm on the carpet(to blame) for sure,\" Milton though. He remembered a big fuss he had recently cause. The other brokers had been pushing the stock of Compusoft, a shaky new company. \" Get in on the ground floor(start buying),\" they had told their clients. \"You'll make millions\" Milton could have sold lots of Compusoft stock and made lot s money for himself, as the other brokers did. Instead, he advised his clients not to buy Compusoft. This made the other brokers angry.
Milton was trembling by the time he arrived at Mr. Goldfarb's huge office. To his surprise, he received red carpet(warmly welcome) treatment. The secretary seated him in a big chair and offered him a cup of coffee. Mr. Goldfarb greeted him with a warm handshake. \" Is this what they do before they fire some?\" Milton wondered.
\" As you know, our firm is not doing well,\" Mr. Goldfarb said. \"Other brokerages are wiping the floor with us(beat us completely) They're taking away our customers. We're losing money. We can't sweep our problems under the carpet any more.(hide our problems) Look at that Compusoft situation, for example.\"
At the mention of Compusoft, Milton gulped. He wanted to crawl under the rug.(Hide up)
\"This morning I learned that Compusoft is bankrupt already, \" Mr. Godfarb went on. \"Investors are losing everything. Ones, our managing broker, is quitting over this. You are the only broker that gave our clients honest advice. I want you to take his place. What do you say? You have the floor(right to speak).\"

Milton was floored(surprised).\" Me? A manager? But I'm too young. The other brokers won't like it. To them, I'm only a kid. When they find out, they'll hit the ceiling(get very angry).\"
