"The Promotion" is quite similar to many movies of the same type. It tells the ordinary life of small people and the difficulties that men must face. It is embellished with continuous fun, as well as various weird dialogues and characters. The film does not have a fixed number or style, but it often presents a unique sense of comedy and humor. The main characters in the film are just like the people around them in life, and they are full of irony and cunning in their happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. The familiarity in the story will allow the audience to quickly blend into the plot and characters, and the strong sense of substitution and identity will make people enjoy it and have some insights and thoughts. The film reveals the essence of life hidden in the atmosphere of comedy, but this revelation does not have the slightest criticism or revealing meaning. It only presents the mortal things in life in a light and casual style. There are no deliberately sensational or imposing jokes in the film, everything seems plain and intriguing, vivid and full of life quality

[Richard explains to the board of directors the sign that cited the deli clerk as employee of the month for "cutting the cheese."]
Richard: 'Cutting the cheese' simply means 'cutting the actual cheese'. It doesn't have a double-thing? So I just missed it. Because in Canada, it's 'cracking'.
Mitch: The expression.
Richard: It's 'cracking', in Canada, yeah. We crack the cheese.
[Long pause between Richard and the board of directors]
Richard: Cracking it? Cracking the cheese? So I simply, really believed that Rogelio had been given an inter-deli award... for cutting the actual cheese. I'm sorry.
[Another long pause as a board member writes Richard's comments]
Richard: I simply believed Rogelio had been given an inter-deli award...
Mitch: I heard you the first time.

[During the motivational retreat, the employees form a circle around the retreat leader. They are instructed to place paper bags over their heads]
Retreat Leader: I want you to take off one thing that you don't need... quickly! Come on.
[Everyone takes off their paper bags, except Richard, who removes his watch. They all stare at Richard, who still has his paper bag over his head]
Retreat Leader: Let's take something else off that you really don't need... right away!
[Richard takes off his shoes as some of the employees begin to laugh]
Retreat Leader: Something else you don't need, let's make it happen. Come on!
[Richard removes his belt while the employees continue to laugh]
Retreat Leader: Something else you don't need. Come on, let's go. Something completely unnecessary.
[Richard turns to his right]
Richard: Doug, can we take our sack off?
Doug Stauber: What?
[Everyone bursts in laughter]
Richard: Did you take your sack off?
Doug Stauber: I can't really hear you.
Retreat Leader: If you could take off one more thing you simply do not need. Do it!
Richard: [whispers] Fuck!
[Richard removes his shirt, revealing a tattoo of the band KISS on his chest, to the delight of everyone else]
Retreat Leader: Okay, uhhh... all right, everybody that still has a bag on top of their heads, scream, 'My concentration skills need improvement.' One, two, three.
Richard: My concentration skills need improvement!
[Everyone bursts into laughter]
