We've got a guy who does firmware for a component in our product. We've recently gone through quite a pissing match with him over a change we requested, and it didn't end well for him.
I just found another, far more minor change I need from him.
I offered him a six-pack of his favorite ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) if he'd do it  .

What a motivator.
What's the monetary value of a six-pack wherever you are? This is what you just offered him.

That of course depends on the six-pack. Domestic swill (Butt-wiper, etc.) is pretty cheap. Guinness is around $10-$12. I've seen some imports in the $25 range, and I'm sure you can find craft brews that are even more expensive.

Hoy! I drink Budweiser at times. I wonder if that makes me a redneck? 
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Okay, admit it. Your real name is Bubba.

I dunno if it makes you a redneck but it does show you support the theft of intellectual property and trademark infringements. But hey, it's not a Mercan company they're ripping off so who cares...

Yep, your barely filtered cats' pish is a tasteless insult to the real thing[^]. What is worse is that Anheuser–Busch tried to stop Budvar using the name that AB stole.

Interesting! Actually my all time favorite beer is Yuengling. (May not be available in the UK and Europe.)

No. According to South Park it's Pabst Blue Ribbon. If caught drinking it on camera you have to say "I'm white trash and I'm in trouble".

I think beers from your own pocket have a higher value than beer bought on expenses.

Fortunately there is but one bottle of the most expensive[^] available. But this could still work out pretty pricey especially with a bitter contractor (see what I did there?) seeking revenge!

I think if you got one of the girls in the office to give him a blow job, he'd be more willing to make changes.
Depending on his proclivities, it may not even have to be the best looking girl in the office.

Now there's a word that needs a new definition.
"Litigious" - the state at which an open sore begins oozing a semi-viscous fluid, usually "gross" in nature (and tastes kinda salty)

That's so obvious, even I can see the answer!
But I'm not going to post it, because my clue would be even more obvious.
