Irvings lay-off

Just a fun little theory. Not sure if it needs a spoiler-warning but I put one anyways...

Was it just me or did anyone else interpret Irving's offer to pay cash for whatever his innie broke as him trying to see if Milchick would accept a bribe? We know oIrving is looking into Lumon and has worked there for a number of years before undergoing severance. Maybe Milchick isn't as loyal as he seems and Irving knows he can be bought.
