Like, this 50 year old police woman is Angie Dickinson and she's going undercover fucking busting porn rings. It's like going in as a newbie porn star. I'm gonna be 15. So now I'm gonna be 17 year old girl.

Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell Him Steve Dave. I'm here with old Walt Flanagan. Old and old BQ. A little of the young urban art. And I'm old Brian. Yeah. I'm a little worried. I'm spin some yarns.

Tell you about the good oldies. Yeah. What used to be. Yeah. The way things used to be. It was better back then right? Everybody says I do. Like at what point does that end though? We're like like people that were born in like 1900s get to the 1920s and they're not like oh it was better in 1910 right? Like kids are working for electricity. Yeah, I want you to hit that. We're pretty much peaked. Yeah. If you could, if you could exist in a like not like dinosaurs or old time you wester whatever but from like like what generation would you prefer to be a part of you?

Happy with your generation, would you like to be from the generation before? Generation after. Ooh, what a good question. I think that I'm probably right where I'm supposed to be. I liked the time I grew up in. You're like, how do you think you would fare being like a kid of 10?

But you have to pick one other, you have to pick one. I mean, ancient Greece would be probably be nice. You know, a lot of poetry. A lot of poetry. Yeah. And no cell phone cameras. I know medicine, no medicine for sure. Yeah, it's all, you know, you're gonna catch it.

Yeah. Because you're not, you're, you're, your body's all like pacified from being in the 20,000. Oh, it's my body now. I thought it was a surprise. No, you're going back. Yeah. But don't he said he's at this age, too.

He's not even young. Well, he's going back as a 2000 man back to ancient Greece. No, I don't want to go back then. I'm fine with your hits. I couldn't live there knowing about electricity. And indoor plumbing and air conditioning. But you you gotta imagine how much cleaner was the air back than how much better was the food? You know what I mean?

The skies, everything was probably just... Where they dumping sewage right in the streets? Yeah, but there were only like 300 people so I'm kind of how much sewage was there. We're dumping it right at like, like, in a pot, like, right into into the I didn't even have roads And so it's just like no, we're like on the sidewalk and the gutters and shit I don't think they dumped it out in Greece. I thought that was like running water pipes and stuff. Yeah, I thought that was like

I better than then I originally thought yeah, you know, I mean look I'm I don't want to go anywhere. I I feel very lucky to have grown up when I grow. I think I would like to go to the 1950s greaser. Yeah, yeah. Singing on street corners. Hey, patio. Do you walk around greasing my hair? You think you have what it takes to be a hood or would you just be like one of those farmless? I'd be a poser definitely, but you know nobody even knows what that word is back then though. No. Yeah, they take one look at you They're like No, I know the lingo from watching all the fucking shows. Yeah, I'll

You would feel right in like It's so perfect, perfectly into that era. There's just even King Book where like a guy finds this trap door or something he goes back to like around the JFK assassination like right before it to see if he could stop it. That could be you. Like you know, you know all the, the parlance of the time. So like you would fit in very well. It's back to the future too, right?

So I go make bets. I'm not going to do any of that stuff though. That always fucks up everything. So like you would fit in very well. It's back to the future too, right? So I go make bets I'm not gonna do any of that stuff though that always fucks up everything Mm-hmm not even not gonna wet your beak just a little nope. No, cuz that's all that's just you can't just wet your beak a little Nobody can wet their beak a little once it gets wet. It's you want it wet That's the thing like nobody's disciplined enough just not to do it. Yeah, except for you me. Yeah, you could do it What about you me? Yeah, I would I would like to go back to a little bit earlier in the 60s I think probably good time, you know that way like Because at this point now I'm just like like I just look around me and I'm just like I can't believe this is what the world is

I can't believe this is what everybody's fighting about. Like it's, like when we first started to tell them Steve Dave, I guess I was a younger, more irassable young man where I was fucking mad at a relationship. Was that worth? Irassible, like just pissy and, and quick to jump at a, yeah, quick to be outraged. Yes, a quick to be out

reached. Yes. Very quick to be out reached. What's that? And you you look at that in your light and you feel that you've grown since then. No, I have been broken since then. Yeah. Yeah. Well, time will do that. It will like there's just shit that I'm just saying. I just don't care Like I look at a look at the the post every morning and there'll be one or two

Articles still that I'm just like do you believe this shit and Mary Beth? It's just listen It is it's pro it's it's designed to make people be like Yeah, and it works on it. It definitely works on me. I'm like, do you believe this shit? But some of this stuff is true, like some of the stuff I'm just like,

I can't fucking believe. The way they word it though is just to fucking get under certain people's skin. Yeah, they were like, this is the way it's gonna be, you know? Whoa! So, so, so,

so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, you know. Oh! That's who! Tell us not the way it was. This is the way it is and it's all for the better. Right. You know, like they say it like, if you don't think so, you're an idiot. You're an asshole. Or you're a racist jerk off or whatever. And that is designed specifically to get people click, click, click, click, click, click, in an anger.

And then I read it and I get pissed. And then I'm just like, you've done the realization washes over you that there's like, there's nothing I can do about it. Anyway, nobody gives a fuck about my opinion. I wouldn't go to your fucking, your, your first true love and you're still your true love. Pills? No, it was fucking time. Oh, damn it. They turned to TV on. Turn fans in on. You turn fauncy on. Yeah. Gary Beth, this is when this is where the good old days right here like, hey, sit on a very bad, you and your and your generation could sit on. Yeah, don't regret me again.

You're not that far off. We've been watching that we're in season two of Little House on the Prairie. Wow. Oh can't do that. Shit. That is a fucking hallmark fucking message every episode. Every dude every single episode. No. What are you doing to yourself and her? She likes it. She's like, I think it's cute. I'm like, because I first I played an episode because I was like, this is like, this is typical 70s primetime fairy that you would

sit there and watch with your family because there was nothing else to watch. So that's what you would watch. Never watched it. Never watched it. Yeah, I watched like one episode and I knew it wasn't for me. It's not even like looking back, They don't even have good action scenes. Like you're on the prairie, you figure some wolves would come by, you know, or bear something. Fire wolves. It's not that.

Yes, Fire wolves come and get you. Why not dukes of hazards or something like that? It's like the war. It's the general league. It's the fucking, the flag you can't watch the dukes have. I can watch glory. It's not the Civil War. That flag is all over it. I mean, what can't watch the dukes and I can watch glory it's an opposite of a war and that flies all over it I mean what can I watch it's not streaming anywhere it's fucking persona no they canceled it man it's not anywhere you can't find it anywhere I think you can find it no all right but I've been watching it but turn around to this this like it's way better and way

more like absurd and just awesome police woman police Policewoman? Like this 50 year old policewoman is Angie Dickinson and she's going undercover, fucking Bustin porn rings. It's like going in as a newbie porn star. I said I'm 15. So round the fight 17 year old girl. Oh my god, it sounds great. It's a 1975 fucking drama that is just so over the top where all the girls are like popping pills so they can get ready to do the scene and then they're out on the ledge going,

I can fly. There's like, give me your hand, give me your hand, come in. And she's like, I don't want to do this anymore, Pepper. And so like she goes undercover into jails, like where she spends the night in jails and she ends the tough, like they don't call them lesbians But you know they they're like you're gonna be mine tonight. Oh, and so she's got to get out of jail in time before she's Taken Amazing

The ex-rated version of little house in the park First episode today. Where are you? Where do you find it? Actually, I watch it the old fashioned way. I watch it every day on meat TV plus at 4am. Oh, DM. Oh, I was scheduled for it. Yeah. That's where I got my friend, Gully, Nick, cake, meat TV. They just had an hour long documentary on him the other day that I watched from beginning

to end with commercials. Did I talk about how we fucking distus? No, surprisingly we didn't make it up. What are you talking about? He did just... He did just as I don't know if you knew this. I asked him if he wanted to judge on the Sunday Jeff Halloween show. Yeah. And he kind of made it be known that he didn't say no but he was just like he gave a thousand

of one excuses. Yeah. And he said, give me a call or give me a drop Me a line and you know in a couple weeks And I was just like fuck it and then you dropped a line there was so many like I gotta do this I can't do this. I can't do this. I can't do this. Okay. I can't come to New Jersey New Jersey because there'll be too busy in New York going to Big Apple Con or whatever the fuck it is near Comic Con. Yeah, well I knew I wanted to come in. I just wanted to call in.

Yeah. But it's fine. I still like watching them. Yeah. I have nothing again. I'll pry, you know, he's not as fucking dead. Not as forgiving. And dead inside as he quaintly.

He just said that anger, but. Yes. You know what? That was personal. Yesterday, I was, you know, like we woke up. I was lying in bed there and Mary Beth is like, she's always, she's very affectionate. She's constantly like, I love you, blah, blah, blah. Yeah.

And she's like, I love you, like I didn't say anything back because I think it's weird when you're like, I love you too, like you don't have to say it every time, right? Sure. And she goes, your eyes are so empty. That's like, what? Is that a compliment?

She's like, I love you. Yeah. You guys are so empty. No, it's usually not. No, it wasn't a compliment? It's like, I love you. You guys are so empty. So is that usually not? No, it wasn't a compliment, I'll tell you. Oh, there you go. It was more of an observation. Fear, perhaps. Yeah, I was just like, what's that supposed to mean?

Like, like, devoid of what? Like, anything? You got doll's eyes. Yeah. Yeah. I think she thinks I have a doll's eyes. Yes, she's just like, your eyes are so empty. And then I started making me think,

I'm like, am I dead inside? What's going on? Were you sleeping with your eyes open? No, you know, who does that to sage? Like I walk into like wakes age up and I'm like, what the fuck is that? I'm monster. Oh man.

Empty eyes. Is that what's, is that a product of age and other things? What the empty eyes Um, or man, I'm not even think you do have empty eyes. I didn't think so either. No, I never thought that. I think they're always Flaring and raging Staring Judging yes

Fuck a terminator I got more like look at this bad fuck. I'm fatter than he is. I'm still gonna judge him So I had a couple I had a couple things that wrote down. Yeah, yeah, what did I write down? Oh? Halloween parade down. Yeah. Yeah. What did I write down? Oh, how do we parade? That's all I want to ask you about. How was it? It was good. I, I, I, I, it was good. I had a lot of fun. It was, I didn't go in it this year. Like I thought I was going to because we ended up finding a cozy little bar that was filled with people who were in costume and stuff. So it was so cool. We ended up just hanging on the bar bullshit and stuff like that.

We got out just as the parade was ending and then walked the streets. But like when the parade ends, the streets, like, you know, each street becomes its own mini parade. So we just walked around the village, went to Washington Square Park, like just walked around. It was fun. I was in my costume. I had a good time. Did it feel dangerous? The dangerous atmosphere? No, not at all. Not even a little bit. Huh. I just can't remember. Did you tell us what you were going to be again? Or did you not want anybody to know?

No, I was a Ghostbuster. Oh, that's right. You can tell us that. Yeah, I got it. Which Ghostbuster? Franklin. It says Quinn. Quinn? Oh, yeah. I really, I really go for it. If you really went for it, you would be Winston. Yeah.

Yeah. I'm like, that's that portion. I'm like, what's up, guys? Be an honor to be Winston. And he's the fucking greatest, but no, it was myself. Yeah. Could you like, let's say, what is Winston? But you wore dark sunglasses, so they can't really tell it's you. They can't tell it's Brian Quinn.

Do you still get attacked on the streets? I mean, in blackface? Yeah, of course you are. Well, then yes, I don't know if I get attacked, but I'm certainly getting fucking guff, getting plenty of guff. Well, I love the Ghostbusters. Why don't I get a pass? Yeah, I think if I just wore the Winston suit overall didn't do the you know

one T. Yeah, I don't think you would be like what's wrong with this guy. Yeah, you got the black whole different world. Yeah, it's a whole different world. It's that one of those things where you're like look society told me I can't do this. And what am I gonna do here? What's stand am I taking? I asked everybody on the whole agreement. I didn't even know that.

Everybody made their fucking opinion on a black face. Luckily I've never done it. So now I'm certainly not gonna start now. But there are some slabs again away with it. The fucking... Sarah Silverman. I was gonna say at least just Silverstone almost fucking Justin Trudeau, who is the biggest dickhead about it. He's not a he's not an entertainer though.

Ted Danson remember. Oh, yeah, but this is back Howard Stern. Yeah, but it's it was just that I think that's a sort of Thomas C. Howl and soul man. Yeah, but it was just that I think that's a sort of a hell and soul man. Yeah, if you look at the arc of all these people's career, like they definitely like later in life or kind of stop doing that stuff and move on. Yeah, yeah, and I think that's like what really people are asking for, right? Like, hmm, well, some people want a pound of flesh though, they still want them to feel. They want them to pay for shit that was not considered abnormal at the time.

I don't know, I've always found it. Even back then I was just like, this is weird. Guys in blackface? I didn't see it that much though, like really? It's not like we grow up in the 40s or anything, like in the 70s, like once in a while you would see it, but it just seemed like... I don't know, I mean I'm not too in my own horn, but even in the 90s I anything like like in the 70s like once in a while you would see it but it just seemed like I'm I don't know I mean I'm not to my own horn but even in the 90s I feel like hey you want to do this I go no what black face oh no no it's crazy yeah you know and I

don't know when the I mean what year was the old those people in the 90s, right? Probably. I think 10 to 10. Always late 80s. Yeah. Well, I think Sarah Silverman wasn't she in the, was, did she do it in the 2000s? I don't know. There are people who made the argument where you're like, look, it's, it's, if you're doing, if I'm in a movie and I'm not murdering someone, you know, and I murder someone on

screen, like I'm not really murdering someone. So if you're, do a movie where you're playing a bad guy in who's putting on Blackface I think like they don't do that even anymore. That's not I mean like it's just it's this whole thing that's so really I'm a man was in Robert Downey Jr He did it. Oh tropic thunder. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm talking about like he was doing it calling it out and commenting on the movie So I think it becomes a different thing although he caught shit too. Oh, yeah You can't even do it for the right reasons That's what the world has come to

And he went on to become a Ironman he works with Disney. He's one you know, I mean he can I just yeah context it's context But either way I don't I don't have the nuance I'm fine with it. I'm fine with that being off limits no problem for me man Speaking of celebrities another thing we wanted to talk to you about last week was Trying to cancel your boy Bill Murray. All right, good luck. He doesn't care, right? I don't think Bill Murray cares. Then they released the Ant Man trailer and he's in it. Yeah. The Disney's not pulling you out of trailers. I think you're all right. Yeah. It's Bill Murray, man. Like I think if it came out that he

fucking like, you know, pulled a Weinstein or did something bad, like people would be like, but what you what came out, I think a lot of people are like the guys just from a different era And like he shouldn't be doing it, but I don't know. What does he do it anymore? I don't know like it seemed like all the examples I gave were like from decades ago Yeah, we did a movie that is seasons are movie that's that's what brought everything out which one That in seasons are a movie that he was doing that they canceled the stop production, because he's straddled. I don't know the exact story, but he was fucking around with,

like, I don't even know who he was fucking around with, but he got like, I don't know, and it didn't seem sexually physical, but still like, dude, you should probably shouldn't be fucking. But I think it's, you know, celebrate the guy for fucking 30 years for doing shit like this The one day be like done so I don't know, but it's Bill Murray, so yeah, I mean, I'm not throwing out my ghostbusters Yeah, I made me think you but poor Bill Murray

Thank you, but poor Bill Murray. He's fine. I doubt he cares at all. We were just, oh, it was Kanye. We were talking about where we, like, he was talking about how he was uncancellable. And then he proved to be wrong. Yeah. And I would have agreed with him until he

started spouting off Jewish stuff. OK. Oh, yeah. Yeah. He thought, yeah, he thought he was untouchable, but, you know, he thought wrong. Yeah, what there are I mean a little bit of humility though these billionaires Yeah, they need to be taught a lesson, you know that you know, you're not untouchable

Right, you can't just say whatever the fuck you want because you sing well because you get because you are you have a lot of money Yeah, Arkali found that out. Can't do whatever you want. Do you think Bezos is on steroids? I have no... why is he jacked? I just saw him with a shirt off. Oh! And he doesn't have the normal looking body of a man his age.

Well he is very rich and that brings the right trainers and the right worker Steve Jobs. Yeah, but I think well he can't do you think though that like he's got that body without even doing the workout though He's so busy. I can't imagine him having time to work out. He's single out now dude. So he might be like I want to like Get in shape. Why does that happen? Why does the married man go like hmm not worried about my body but as soon as you're a single guy you're like I worry about my body. I think that's a mistake. I think that guy shouldn't do that. Right. I think you should always be trying to keep

it firm. Keep it keep it a little time. Keep it hard. No, I don't practice with preaching anyway shape or but But yeah, but but I feel like No, you know, you want to feel good about yourself. You need to get confidence. Here the year the most newly Married man, right. Why do you have to get so fat? Like did you have a certain like as soon as you got to put the ring on you're like okay? I can let my pants out now. No, it was her fault, not my fault. Not my fault, I remember, because it took so long

and it was like a lot of discipline to get down so like where I needed to be for the wedding. And then after the wedding, she was like, all right, well, you don't have to worry about that. Now, like, you know, you fit in your suit. But then it's like, she doesn't care at all. It appears about my physical condition, which makes it harder for me to care.

Like if she were like, hey, she'd look more like basso's, then she might shame me into fucking, you know, actually doing something about it. It still looks awkward on basso. So it doesn't look normal. It looks like he's got back implants. Oh yeah. He might. No. Yeah. It just doesn't look natural though. He's like he's turning into a fucking super-going right in front of everybody's eyes and nobody's noticing it. Except you.

You really hate pesos. I mean that makes sense. And I did see a couple days after last week what we did the show a couple days afterwards. I saw The Kyrie Irving thing and somebody being like why isn't Basos seeing to it that this movie is the book are taken off The why is baseless allowed them like promote this in this platform and not feel any slings and arrows Yeah, unless it's like I mean you have to think at that level though It's not like somebody's like Jeff Jeff that level though, it's not like someone's like, Jeff, Jeff, there's an anti-symmetric film on your website. It's like they're supposed to be people there

for oversight and as soon as that came out, the second it came out. It has a team people who should be on that. You should be able to trust them to be like, what? That shit off there. There's a blowing up there. Yeah.

But let's not talk about Amazon. Let's talk about something else. Yeah, let's talk about Let's see what do we talk about? One thing we always love to talk about old Raycon. Oh, yeah Lower Raycon where are my Raycon's? Well, I was blowing my leaves the other day. There's so many fucking Oh my god, I love that joke. What'd you say? He said blowing leaves Since I was like 13 it's been the best joke a pretty good one

It's just the first time I ever heard it really yeah me too. I'm I can't believe I mean I just be clear I know it's not a banger Twerving nostalgia thing at this point like I'm not you know I don't think I'm light in the world on fire with that one now. Why are you blowing at least he was leaves Just to get him out of the driveway like I can't get him out of the yard because the grass is too long I'm gonna find some way to cut the grass But just to get him out of like the like they're like over my ankles In the driveway, so I just like blow the blue ones in the

The worst I have you know Good leave stuck in my socks and shit, you know you walking around or shoes on No! Did you have socks? Yeah! How loose are these socks? That leaves you with it. How high are your eyes? I got them pitched up above my ankles.

But somebody leaves make their way into the house also. Like every time I turn around in the kitchen, same with you or no? The little ones, the tiny ones. Yeah, all over the fucking place. Yeah. And I'm like, how are these getting in here? That's when I beat a servant and I've done it. Yeah.

I've done it to take care of two sweet, my friend. So what I'm gonna have to do, I'm gonna have a servant, I'll smack him right about the route a little bit. I gotta want these leaves.

They were talking about complaining about some hotel they went to like they go to some fucking hotel up in Tarry Town, you know, Sleepy Hollow, and I guess they didn't warn them ahead that the hotel restaurant would be closed for like some private event. So they're carrying out the carrying down. Oh boy. Yeah, well, why weren't we told blah blah blah, it's like who the fuck eats in the hotel restaurant? If I were both you guys, I'd be worried that Brian might be the word might become the male. Oh dude

Yeah, we're not talking special like get aware it's like, oh, shit, you can't be here. We mentioned him on the pod. I'm sure he knows it's the first episode we did. He was referenced by name or by old handle. Mm-hmm. But I don't think you've ever been on, right? Or have you been on? No, never been on. I've done a little closer to you.

We did a a thing it hasn't come out yet, but he got some oh that's right Yeah, yeah, yeah, he brought some old Some really obscure shit to tell but you know that's not I don't want to take him down to pick. Yeah, I'm Here like it's here he sucks No, how do you feel about about groupie?

TSD groupie because she's what's up? What happened to the groupie? No, groupie. What happened? What happened? What happened to the groupie? No, I mean, her knowledge has to rival his own. Yeah, I think she's one of the few people that give me, aside from Walt, a good run for my money. And this is the last time that she was even on. Like the first 10 episodes?

You're thinking of a different groupie. You're thinking of Sam. Oh no, you're thinking of Sam the groupie. No TSD groupie lives in parcel all-okay to online who is extremely knowledgeable and hard core core but like you're the you're the goat

of uh... who is the listener's like that have to say i mean i wouldn't say it but if you want to feel free you know why i tell you why because i know there's... Because you're here. No, because there is no doubt that there's some things you don't like that we do, but you never fucking say it. You'll never go on here and be like,

I didn't like this, and I didn't like this. He's just like, you just don't say anything, right? That's the way you do it. If you thought something, why, like, yeah, I would never like go out and say like, oh, I didn't like this. Here's why I would have did this and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Shut the fuck up. That's when we do that on the show. Not to something I loved though. If I truly love something though, I'm not going to go

fucking, well, my voice needs to be heard and I have to tell though, I'm not going to go fucking, well my voice needs to be heard and I have to tell them why I didn't like this certain aspect of it. Yeah, I understand. Right? I mean, if I really, really adore something, I'm not going to take the time to tell those people I didn't like this certain thing you do. No, this, it's, you tend to focus on something you love on the stuff you love, not the parts that. But, you know, I don't know. How long have you been listening? I've been listening since I want to say about a year and a half into the show.

Give or take a little bit. I can't remember the exact... Back then you were a smart fan. Yeah. Well, yeah, it started as a smart fan and then you gave the curator title. So it's still the, I mean the Twitter is still at a smart fan. I mean, it is still at smod fan I mean it's still at smod fan but it's just that you could do it just plainly love the fact that you abandoned smod yeah well talk talk to Elon get them that unsurprisingly that

curator was taken you have a blue check as no no we're gonna work on it yeah I mean it's just a box yeah oh Ming said that he, I got last week we texted Ming, he didn't text back in time to see if he would pay for the blue check mark. He says, no, he would not. I don't understand, because I, so I have a blue check mark. Now they want me to hone you up for it. If you go to your, no, you're not grandfathered in. If you go to your, you're like, table, not table of content,

what's it called, like the menu or whatever, without your information on it, it has like at least the other day, it had something called Twitter blue, and if you punch that, it allows you to sign up for, Twitter blue, which means you get your checkmark, you can post long form audio and video, and one other thing I can.

You can edit tweets. You can edit tweets, yeah. Oh, sounds great. So for only $8 a month. Yeah, for you, yeah. I think it is beneficial to you. Sure. For a few more years, yeah.

But for like guys like, I don't know if it's beneficial to like, I don't have blue check, but if I did, I would be like, I'm not getting nothing out of you. Yeah, I agree with that too. Yeah, I mean, we have it for the told Steve David account, but who's trying to impersonate you? That's really what it's like, be cute, it makes sense, because otherwise you'll have the real be cute, and then get that already, yeah.

Yeah, fake Instagram, all that shit, everybody trying to buy it So why are you in Jersey? I mean to visit the store you from Georgia So we drove up we went through DC here then we went to New York it or two days ago and just kind of We did a little bus tour so you just get off we walked around Chinatown we walked around The time square and a couple little areas because we had caught up before and done like the city pass where you hit like big event Thanks so this time we kind of wanted to just explore the city not real big events It is the first time you're at the the Hasley location. Yes. What you think?

It's great. I mean, it's nice that you guys have your own kind of more defined space I'm assuming it's nice to not have people constantly wandering and not know what the hell's going on. Oh, we still have that. Still? Yeah, we still get that. How do people wander upstairs in a building? It's weird. There will be people who come in and I mean, I think this place used to be even years before

or maybe a neighboring office, a hearing aid place. So we get a lot of seniors who are angry that we're not Oh wow, we're not here to help them with their hearing aid issues Yeah, they're cranky When when I tell them they're in the wrong building now Is the hearing aid place still within the complex? It's across the street now Okay, so they and but it's hard to describe because it's kind of the complex. It's across the street now. Oh, okay. But it's hard to describe, because it's kind of off to the left and across the street.

So I have to then walk outside and show them where it's at. Oh, God. They're still not, you know, there's still no gratitude even after me walking down and showing them where it at, they're still wrambling as they walk away. Yeah, I saw, I was, look at, I saw Gallagher died. Yeah, Gallag I was I was

Look at I saw Gallagher died Yeah, Gallagher passed away and then in the same breath Kevin Conroy Kevin Conroy back there also passed away and I'm like I 66. I'm like my god That's only 12 years away like yeah, like most people don't think like I'll probably die my mid 60's like they they hope for usually He pretty pretty aggressive cancer. Oh, did he? Yeah, I wasn't sure I just I wasn't familiar. Yeah, I think I said I heard he had pretty aggressive cancer and what a bummer. We uh we we lost Benjamin cat this week um to uh yeah and I might can't even get into it because I'll just I'll have to talk about it one day or else I'll just be crying in front of the It's only been like five or six days like every day. I'm just like

The mood was low around the Johnson household as well. Yeah, I bet cried quite a bit Yeah, I appreciate that you know, he was he was a very special cat. I know that you know a lot of the listeners were reached out Twitter and Instagram and right you know, I I did what I never do when I read them all. You know what I mean like I mean at one point on Instagram they were over 10,000 comments so I couldn't read them all but but it was pretty nice to see that stuff and it it, if I give another 10 seconds I'll stop crying, but I do want to say it felt really, and I never would have thought it helped as much as I did to have so many people reach out, but it did because it showed I did a good job of explaining what he meant to me. Yeah, I thought that was a great post.

Yeah, oh yeah, was a great post. Yeah, the post, but even just over the years. Yeah, like bring him into the show very early on and all that shit. Yeah, and it was, so that made me feel like I had, let the world know he was a special as he was. He was, I couldn't ever let the world know how special he was because

bit because People would think I'm crazy Like if I if I talked about what he how smart he really was and what he really meant to me People would think I'm insane, so But it did mean a lot to me and I appreciate everybody that took the time to Reach out. Thank you guys. That's it. There you go. We get into it another day Fuck Kevin Conroy and Yeah, I did a guy Gallagher. Yeah, I don't know what it fucking Gallagher would do except

Slash Yeah, I know me and salsa. I'm like five years ago. I remember I remember talking to you about they saying you were going to see him But did you need to talk to him and he was bitter? Oh, he's a fucking prick. It was amazing. I didn't mind. Like it was one of those guys where I'm like, I love that he's a prick. Yeah, but yeah, he was just like bitter and kind of mean to the audience and stuff like that. Was it was a Gallagher too? No, it was original. It was originally. Yeah, yeah. And the as advertised Walty smashed a bunch of watermelons and there was glorious. My image again, and like to get some watermelon on you

is like it's like Gene Simmons's blood on here. Yeah, yeah, he actually pulled me up on stage and he didn't, it's not like, I don't think he would ever fucking know who we were. He was just picking people from the audience and I happened to lock eyes with Gowyer and he brought me up to smash something and I didn't smash it to his liking so he insulted me. It's like it's the fucking best.

I'm fine with that man. I'm fine with that. But yeah, we lost some giants this week. Yeah, I agree. Anyway, sorry. Anyway, Tom Brady, poor Tom Brady, the hits keep coming, FTX, the cryptocurrency thing he was, he was pimping.

Yeah, I went like, went belly up big time, like lost billions. But, you know what, I mean, you did some, I don't, if you can't understand a currency, right? I mean, it's bound't understand a currency, right? I mean, it's bound to fucking, like this is inevitable, I would have to think. I think the celebrities that were a part of it,

lost paper, like not dollars, but like money on paper. It's like, if this exchange reaches this much, you'll get like these rewards as it goes. Oh yeah. Kind of thing. Yeah, I don't think they were like, let's give Tom Brady, you know, 100 million and fucking whatever, what ever cryptocurrency it was.

You should have cashed out immediately. Should have. Yeah. If he was able, but yeah. It might come back. I mean, crypto, I don't know. I think it's this particular fund, the guy fucked up. Like whoever was writing the fund, it's like particular fund, the guy fucked up, like whoever was running the

fund, it's like a run by like a 20 year old kid. If you were to, let's say, let me be your financial advisor, and I was like, I want to put all your assets, I'm going to put like, not all of them, I'll go, I'm going to go 85% in crypto. If you told me 5% I'd be like you're fired. When I ate it. No, I put like fucking like, brand and crypto. I'm about good with that. And that's a little too high for you. You know me, man, I don't want to work.

It's the future, Kim. Yeah, I'm good with the money I had. In like, in like, tax-free municipal bonds, like that, slow earners, but they're not gonna go away. And we're gonna go with the rest of it and game stop. Yeah. You know what, though, for one week or two, you would look like a fucking genius.

Right, but I think that week has long since passed. If we sold that week though, you know? That'd be pretty good. Yeah, I tried to buy with the theater. What was it? Lose. Oh, AMC. AMC was the other one.

I tried to buy AMC. I bought it and then they reversed the sale. No. Yeah, because that's what that was like at that moment where everybody was doing it. Oh, shit. And I had bedbath and beyond, but then I sold it because it just wasn't moving and then Because that's what that was like at that moment where everybody was doing it. Oh shit and I had bad bath and beyond but then I saw that because it just wasn't moving and then recently it moved because some guy like Some guy I want to know who these fucker people are they invest 10,000 and it's something and I'm not making like 11 million I don't know why can't I be a financial brain like that?

Because we're fucking worrying about leaves Because we're fucking worrying about leaves. I'm gonna house him a little house in a prayer. Yeah, I know. That's why. Some of the people who smell the fuck is have like three screens. Yeah, the Matrix all over. None of them are a little house in a prayer area. Do you do any of that?

Any dabbling crypto? No, no. I don't trust it. No. Okay. I have some Bitcoin. Very small amount of Bitcoin. Yeah, I have a small amount of Ethereum.

And I doge Dogecoin. I bought and sold dogecoin a couple times like a hundred bucks in it. It was right. Yeah And now without getting too technical, do you understand it? I don't it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I know people who have explained it to me intelligently to a point where I was like Oh, okay, I could see it, but I don't get it. Me and me too. Yeah. I think, yeah. I think most people, if they were honest, probably don't get it either. There's a few who get it, and they know it's a pyramid scheme, and they teach them, they throw it out, they throw them on my jump around and, you know, make people go, I can't, it's possible. Sure, but it's like the stock market is not much, you know, it's all scam. It's all the fucking scam though. The only thing that's real is...

I wanna read it. I always say we should try to be the first public podcast to go public like on the stock exchange. Can we do that? I don't know, I have to look into it. We definitely can if we did it the right way. The question would be how the fuck with the shareholders make any money They wouldn't Product yeah

I remember like years and years ago Kevin suggested the same thing He's like why can't we just help stock and view a skew? I was like because you fucking spend everything you make There's no money left over yeah, um, I wonder though if we could sell symbolic shares in the company. Oh, like suitable for framing? Like fucking acres on the moon? Yeah. You know?

Like a symbolic ownership of tell us today. You come across this so fucking like like PT Barnum reborn right there. But you think about it. Like I remember back in the day, Pam was super into Farmville. She'd be all excited if she got this special fucking tool or a special machine or, you know, she would go out and get Farmville cards and buy all this shit.

And all time I'm like, but none of this really exists. Like this isn't real. Like the second, like some glitch happens in your account, you don't own any of this really exists. Like this isn't real. Like the second, like some glitch happens in your account, you don't own any of this shit anymore. Yeah, it's actually happening to me a little bit now with actually it's not the same thing, but all my Marvel comics got wiped out of my iPad

and I'm having a hard time getting them back. What you said years ago, I meant to mention that to you. Sorry, this might not be good for you. Oh, no, go ahead. Because you were saying like, you know, if you don't buy the issue, do you ever really own the comic? So, oh, so you bought the issues from Marvel now? Through the Marvel now.

Now something has got a new iPad. And I'm trying to restore the purchase on it. And I hit the restore purchase, and it's just not working. And I'm like, all those comics are just fucking gone. Oh, that money you spent, too? Gone. Yeah. So sorry, I didn't mean to take over the final thing.

No, no, it just proves the point that it it's like you don't really, you don't really always. You just know numbers and really you're just leasing them at the whim of whoever licensed them to you or whoever downloaded it from. Yeah. Right. So what's the stop us from doing the same thing? Would you buy a share of TSD? I mean, I think I would have thing. So. Would you buy a share of a TSD? Small share? I mean, I think I would have to. Yeah. I'm talking about it.

I don't trust cryptocurrency, but I guess I'd probably trust that. Like, what would a share go for you think? What would be a fair or like a dollar? A dollar? So now we're like penny stocks. We're not even like blue chip. Well, you can buy like a minimum because a dollar share, but you got to buy a minimum of like $50 $50 shares, and then you get like a nice

Stocks certificate suitable for framing Which like the frame is worth more than It's a foil stamp like an embossed oil stamp. I'll talk to me. Yeah Talk to me. We'll get some of those old hologram stickers he couldn't use. Oh, that's right. He's in Dubai. Yeah, he didn't think he was going to go up until the last minute. He was like, yeah, I don't know.

It's looking shaky, but then he went. He's texting me photos of people in Dubai wearing Tel Aviv t-shirts. Yeah. How cool is that? I think it's pretty cool. I think we should start texting. Like, I'm sure the government watches every fucking communication. We should start texting him

like anti-Islamic shit. You know, like so they don't tend to. Well, like pictures of Mahabid. He like acted all fair. You're going to fire bomb this office. Please do it at a time. I'm not here. Oh, you think my thing that come back to her house? We're just trying to play a prank on Ming. Yeah, we're just trying to get a beheaded. I think those Charlie Hebdo guys were like, we're just going to make a scene. You have your mind.

And if it does work, I mean, get him, I mean, uh, he mean gets beheaded. What is the payoff here? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, no payoff for me. Yeah. But like, we were able to do that. What if we were able to get our front bed?

What is the, what is the percentage of population, though though that recognizes Meng over there? I know he saw some people with some tellmsee they've shirts on. I guess that's also a factor of like how many of these cons happen over there and how many guests do they get. So like is Meng like a fucking a solid get? So like is is Ming like a fucking a solid get I Saw I was watching I was looking at Instagram and I saw Somebody was announcing like here's what's coming up with the car We have celebrity such as this one and that one and like Ming was like third and like the first two I didn't recognize either

Like they are really tried to sell the car Have you seen his booth? It's fucking a me yeah, yeah, it looks good. It's amazing. So like he looks You know, he's having the time of his life, but he'd better be careful though. Emperor is new clothes, baby Yeah, like you can get fucking you can get in put in gel from making out on a beach Remember that especially if you know... Oh, if leaves my friend. We need to see your cell phone. Who is Brian Johnson? And explain this caricature.

Yeah. Oh, something to hit squat to New Jersey. So we brought this guy to sit here and like not say anything. What are we? It's all right. He's here for it. I think just being here, right? Yeah.

That's an evocation experience. Oh, we're not relying on him for any content or anything like that We're just giving him about his vacation and that went absolutely nowhere I don't know him. I don't know anything about him. I was just trying to connect curator. I don't know I don't know what episode 50? Probably somewhere around there does he own any stock in this show Probably somewhere around there does he own any stock in the show Do you work in an office environment? Yeah, I mean a warehouse office kind of combo sure

You know I don't eat gummies I go why would you buy gummies? She like couldn't find the hard tablets and I was like I'm not gonna eat these. Then I guess you wasted your money. I'll see you again when you get the right stuff But I'm like what you know that I only eat tablets Because that was a long time ago she goes Have grown up since that It wasn't that literally 50 years ago. These are massive canisters of gummy, flinstone, vitamins. Or like seven of them.

I saw the father flying against special. Your girl's hair looks pretty good, so it doesn't look like they need any vitamins. They can use that kind of stuff. No, they're young., you know, they don't that don't know if they I guess everybody needs vitamins though. What are we talking about? Who we couldn't? Yeah, we just did it in the commercial. Yeah, of course you need them. But they don't take vitamins though. Vitamin's always upset my stomach though. That's why I'm like at first to vitamin show. Do you take them with food. You're supposed to.

Usually yes. How come? Why is it upset your stomach? Because it just it's you have something in your stomach that helps like cut it almost. I that's why I keep you around like how long you would be my personal physician. You know why there's no Betty Rubble? No, I don't. On the Flintstone vitamin. Yeah, come because her and Wilron Wilmer, too similar.

So they instead of having a Betty Rubble Flintstone Vitamin, they made the Flintmobile. But why they thought kids wouldn't want to eat two women? No, it's just that they were so, they looked so similar. Like Fred and Barney leased look different. So they looked so similar. There was an adino too. Yeah. Well, did you ever had Flintstone's cue? Yeah. Well, did that sound like a bad one?

Sounds cute. Yeah, sure, of course. Fucking amazing, right? Fruity Pebbles also one by three wheels. Better than any candy that... Yeah, they're pretty great. And I'm with you on the grape ones. Right?

Yeah. I could just like, you know... To beat them. They're like loodens that cherry stuff. I just see... I'd look like a coquette if... It's a spur-pulsing. I'm not sure.

I'm brushing them up. I used to like those, um, the cherry children's aspirin. Yes, I used to just pop it up. No, not cherry, I liked orange. Okay. Until somebody threw it up in the classroom, and all you could smell was vomit and orange. They were so sick, I guess, you know, that they said they gave

that orange aspirin. That'll ruin it. I should take four of these. It's something they're just sitting there and it was just like you know like projectile. I'll vomit all over the So then you had to wait for a janitor to come in and you could just smell the orange and And I can never get that out of my head now, so I can't take baby aspirin I remember throwing up in school once in the janitor left the bag of On my desk

And I'm like and I don't know like it was supposed to take this home because I got sick and it was my job to throw it out. And I'm like, and I didn't know, am I supposed to take this home because I got sick and then I left. And I came back and there's this bag on my desk and I didn't know what it was. And so I could teach this like, yeah, you gotta throw that out. I'd be completely unsurprised if he still had it.

You lost it in the fire. No. I saw dust with all the fire. No. I saw dust was only a physical seller. All right, so again, you have been employed by TSD for over a year now, correct? Yes. You are the office coach. Yes. And we thought possibly it was time maybe to bump you up to office manager which is different than an office coach. Manager has a sort of prestige to it.

Sure. It means you're making real decisions that affect other people. We have to give him the autonomy to make decisions. Yeah, that's gonna be tough for Walt. That is very, very, very tough. There are sometimes, like, like, but he's a wild card. He's that, he's that, uh, he'll throw out at us sometimes, something that is perfect. Like, you know, he will do something on his own. You're like, you did that on your own. Amazing. Amazing. Then there's other times it's like, you had to be told to do that. What the fuck?

Amazing then there's other times it's like you had to be told that So it's so it's yeah, it's oh you never you're keeps me on my toes sure But I thought I would I mean this is nice I came any at a bottle of water on the table for me like that to me speaks of like that's thoughtful Let me tell you something if if you're showing up, it's a different get-up. Yeah. Then he's the manager. When it's just me and Walter, he's the coach. He is definitely cognizant if you're

going to be here. Like if we're doing a Sunday Jeff show, yeah, it's not the same level of like fucking hyper, you know, like making sure everything's perfect. That's, is that true? I don't believe so, but I guess. OK. I don't hear what the napkin in front of me.

Why don't I notice it? I don't have a Coke Zero in the fridge or anything, but I did have bottles of water. I appreciate it, buddy. Thanks, Pat. So I thought I would give you this test. See what your answers are. See what the guys would have answered. We got a guy in the trenches, a guy who works, you know, every day

in an office environment to kind of help us because we're so far removed from it. So our answers might be totally out of whack with what goes on in the real world today in an office. I can believe it. Setting. One's the last time, what? One's the last time you had like a supervisor review. Ever? It'd be going back a long time now. It would have to be the even pre-recris. I don't even think the community center would have, I would have been given a review of.

Timmy would have been like, God, a review wall, Timmy would have just written down the answer. He would have just checked off. Excellent. Excellent. And with good reason. I mean, he had no reason. Well, if he

sat around a drill all day, what are you talking about? The night time shenanigans, he might have gotten a different review. He didn't tell you about that secret camera he installed. Are you guys ready? Oh, I'm excited about this. I'm pulling for you to get him. I want you to get that promotion in that possible race You'll be honest sure, you know, let us know if we if our responses to his response are Not what you would get in the real world sure I actually have to do peer reviews for other people. Oh, excellent But what are you reviewing on some of the things that you would be reviewing on your employees? It's a base. You're an office manager? Not, I mean a production manager, yeah.

On your phone? Oh, wow. Do you have a production coach? No, we do not have a coach. Does anyone have an office manager or a softball uniform? They don't have to, no. For an entire month. Oh, cute. I want to be real quick.

Yeah. I want to be real quick. Yeah. I want to talk about Black Friday at the end of the session. We're going to do an open again at midnight. OK. Yeah. Selling new merch. Well, let's say we overshed a little bit. Didn't we overdo it last year?

Well, you wasn't like two nights, and you didn't have to do two nights? No, no, no, we did the one night. The plan originally was to stay open all night starting at midnight. Yeah, we're going to do it. I'm not going to be here. I'm not gonna be here. I'm gonna stay to two.

Okay. Two o'clock last year was would have been the perfect time. Getting him will be here though all night, you know, manning the year. It's part of the office manager, responsible. Well, let's like promote him the manager yet. You're right.

You're right. I'm getting ahead of myself. But he will be, this is to get some of the excitement, some of the, some of the excitement level up for Black Friday. Yeah, we've got some special appearances got Frank five coming in. Oh Let's do less here remember you're gonna you're gonna go right you're gonna come down bring a bunch of I'm gonna Hell and bring a bunch of the R&H stuff that we're gonna sell We're gonna do on Black Friday sale right here and the daytime or are we talking midnight time? What's a good time frame of people?

I'll be in Pennsylvania. Okay so you'll be here sometime on Friday afternoon. Afternoon evening type thing. Yeah. All right but to like I said Frank five will be appearing at some point on on Black Friday, not at midnight though. But at the midnight to get people excited, get them will be in his office coach uniform. Wow. Wow.

Like, you haven't been yet. Last year, you know, he got sick and you he wasn't available to put the costume on. Because you think you can ask us. year, you know, he got sick and he wasn't available to put the costume on. Because you think you can still have an F and Chuck gave us COVID. Right. I'm going to be the Baron the whole night. Oh, okay, great. It get pictures with the Baron in the office coach. It's just 2 a.m. It's just 2 a.m.

But I'm sure you're going to be here at midnight. I will be here. I think, uh, Finances is having a twerking competition. Woodnight. Black Friday? I think you the Black Friday or the, uh, thanks, giving you, I can't remember which one it is. Okay.

We're going to have new merch this so yeah on black Friday Great so it's gonna be exciting while trying to conduct business. I'm talking about twerking No distracting cue All is all is our anage Materials now sitting in a something candy-sucking car I sit in it and something candy-sucking car Turkeys are something that ever interested me, but I was excited that get him was into it really? Yeah, man I'd like to see him like what show signs of heterosexual Good old healthy American man

Like little twerk in his life. No, well, I'll help him Maybe we'll Helen be here to sell the stuff or she's just dropping it off No, well, not for me, but I'll be here to sell the stuff or she's just dropping it off You'll be doing yourself a favor to come down and cast your eyes on that beauty. Oh, all right. Yeah You know as her cousin and her employee it's hard for me to agree with that. I know you mean and I'm sure a lot of other people will But yes, she might be here. I don't you know she likes doing weird shit I'm a little surprised of that BQ isn't as a twerkin. What is it about the twerkin? It was never a thing that worked for me. I kind of like there's no class to twerking and I do like a tiny bit of class. The pinky in the air. No. Let me explain it to you. Before, before,

fucking IJ, you telling me you turn your nose up at somebody twerking and your Plates Now all of a sudden you're like Oh I don't think there's any art to it You know there's no you know the fuck you're looking for fair lady you're looking for some fucking big cheeks Fuck it's happening in front of your nose

I'm not looking for big cheeks like in front of my nose. I never have them. I never have them I think that's one of the issues with twerking is most of the women who do it seem to be Amply framed and if that's not your thing, oh, that doesn't fall. You know, I've been with I've dated plenty of girls who are Amply framed that other problem. I don't know. I just remember a show's past where you were coming down We don't have any show in the past where I came down on that Why are you afraid? You're in our whole same house. Yeah, but you said it Gals at art prone to twerk. They're very like fucking like

Not hostile, but Aggressive Get a very aggressive perfect word. It is an aggressive form of aggressive. Yeah, very aggressive. Perfect work. It is an aggressive form of... They're always like looking back at you to make sure you're looking. Yeah, it's like a challenge. And I'm not up to it.

Like I'm not up to the challenge. And maybe I just feel bad about myself. You know, I just picture now we're going to have a protester's torquing out in front of the studio. It's going to be a make people wearing the y'all. And look, Mohammed cartoons, percent of English. I'm not against twerking. I think anybody who wants twerking, should twerking, anybody who wants a view twerking,

should watch it. It's on the spectrum of sexuality. I love it. But you ever see a twerking? It's just not my thing. That can break a table. Well, that hold on. Now I'm getting interested.

What do you mean? They can break tables that they do it so fucking ferociously. Well, they'll be doing that a fantasy. I don't know. Have you also seen these twerkers that will hold up traffic fucking ferociously. Well, they'd be doing that a fan disease? I don't know. Have you also seen these twerkers that will hold up traffic? They'll like, yeah, like down in Miami, I know it was popular for a while,

where like you would come to like a four-way traffic stop and some lady would go out into the middle of the intersection and just start twerking all over the place, holding up traffic everywhere. Let's get hold of traffic anywhere. Yeah, right. I mean, oh, my thing had to be specifically Miami.

I'm saying that's where I saw the big door. You could go right now. You can cause a fucking 10 car pile up if you fucking just had to get it working. Even get it working. So it's like the police brothers in the cars. All right, let's get it. It's got a fucking manager material here. All right. Let's get it. Let's get it. We got to fucking manage our material here. All right. Number one scenario.

Number one. So, let's paint the picture here that you're in a real office environment. You're not at the TSD town general store, but I want to see how you'd react if you were in charge of a real office with at least, how many people are in your office? Probably about 10 to 15 in our little area. I would say there's 10 to 15 in your charge. Okay. All right. How do you handle the coworker

who heats up a dish with fish in the break room microwave? I will. What kind of asshole would you do that? Kind of. It has. Okay. Oh, this is great. Don't tell us how it worked out for you It kind of happens already when someone complains about my pork fried rice so But how I would handle it as I would leave a delicate note by the microwave to You know, please be aware of some yo motherfucker. There's no sign on here to say I can't cook certain foods Well, there's no sign on here that says I can't cook certain foods. Well there will be no food.

There will be going forward. Oh, there's certain foods that are off live to put the microwave. Yes, anything that is too odor-referous. Well, like I said, you could get in trouble though. Yeah, I say it's like Indian foods. No, no, no. And that's specifying. My culture eats fish.

I'm not saying what the food is. What do the person- Well, you have to specify. My culture eats fish. I'm not saying what the food is. What do the person- Well, you have to specify. No, anything that is considered or differous by a majority of the office. Okay, so approach the coworker. Tell me how you handle it.

I put up the sign. I'm not going to say that. I would, and then, if it continued, I would have- Next day, salmon in the microwave. And someone's draw a fucking caricature of you would have dicking your mouth That are not allowed in the microwave The side point you the dick that says leaves

This might smelly dick or different That's all they wrote under it. You didn't see it's mind the smell that day. Well, I would compliment that obscene images do violent our HR policies. We've had cultural sensitivity, I mean, sexual harassment sensitivity training. And any further refractive. But in all seriousness, let's just go back to the fish.

Though there's no note with you. I was hoping that we gonna be a second note It's only the first question Yeah, about the fish. Yeah smell and the fact that they can't use the microwave anymore because it's now polluted with fish Oh, yeah, you put a slice of pizza in there. Guess what smells like fish Tastes like fish. Yeah, I would like I said I would you know, bring up these points. I would say, you know, majority of the office, you know, your coworkers, your peers are having problems with this. And it's making it a, it's making it a hostile work of our in, in all reality.

Okay. So, but you go, you go democratic. You're like most of the office without polling them. Most of the office doesn't like. Well, I think, I think that the fact that it comes up to my notice is that someone complains. Wow. At what point do you remove the microwave? Which would be my, that'd be the way I handle it.

The building. Yeah, I'd be like, if I just want the fuck as quick and set up and everything, my microwave's gone. Yeah. Order in bitches. I would say to the point when the microwave becomes damaged that it gets removed, yes. And that's sadly there's no more room or in the budget. There's no more room in the budget for a new microwave this quarter

Perhaps next where's the money? What you do with the money? Yeah, where's the fucking money? It wasn't up to me. I went through all that stock Is there our purchasing department Is there our purchasing department? For sure. You bought five, fifty all ones alone. So... So that's you would hear with a note. Would you address the person who was putting the fish in the cylinder?

No, so I wouldn't want to single them out. Okay. Yeah, I wouldn't accuse someone. But you know who's doing it. If you know who's doing it, then why wouldn't you single them out? Because you want to give them the chance to modify their behavior without being called out and feeling bad Okay, and then if they come in you're like they have fish and they're gonna put it in Like looking at you

Okay, and you're and they're like and they're not let's say they're not confrontational. It's like really you can Control what food I eat Like no, I can't I'm just the office coach. I don't know You can control what food I eat? Like, I'm so shocked. No, I can't control what food you eat, but we provide this microwave as a courtesy. Wow, I can't believe this. Wow. I need the omega fats because for my health, but you don't want me to be healthy.

Well there are many cold or cool dishes, even room temperature dishes. Have some cool dishes. Have you tried sushi? Yeah, because I want to spend $80 for lunch every day. Oh no, no, no. If you go to the shop right there's an amazing rash in front of the store that has discounted sushi. Slash expired. Yeah, days old No, it's it's almost

Day old so you're telling me office coach that I should eat expired Sushi it is not matter is not expired. It is close to expiration. Okay, but Not expect this you know did not expect this which might have been recorded you as i said the micro-evaluate as a courtesy is a privilege and like all privileges it can be removed and you know like i said not single you out so we can't you know the other

members of the office will not like i think it's it's it's a reasonable answer what what do you think bright that response? I think he's not ready to handle it that the that Delay there where where they like I think and it's tough Because back in the day it could be like no more fucking fish. I want to hear another word about it But today Shit man like like you like you said you could be courting a lawsuit

but you Q Tent is through mean that he actually had a pretty good answer to this. I think he had a thoughtful answer I think it was okay. I think ultimately it's gonna end up in today's day and age of the removal of the microwave Is the only way to settle it, but I think he uses his first steps were good now curator You said that this is actually popped up. Yeah, yeah We're at your workplace. Yeah, we're lucky enough that we have a big enough space that we made two different

break rooms. And one is kind of prone to smelly or stuff. And one break room that it's kind of... Who, like, say... Do you work with all men or is there women involved too? There's women involved too. So who was like... Guys, this will be the smelly break room.

And break room B will be one where there'll be no smelly foods. Thankfully, it's not something that had to be discussed. It kind of just worked itself out that way. That one break room is really, because it's next to a lot of offices. So people thankfully are self conscious enough to try to not cook smelly stuff right next to people's offices. And the other break room isn't. It's kind of out of the way a little bit.

So and people are courteous enough to be like I'm gonna heat up my thankfully it hasn't had to be yeah yeah yeah left over it sure in a situation though with only one break room it would kind of have to be like you try saying you know everybody try to be courteous to help you know say hey guys I'm gonna be I'm gonna be turning break room, adding into a garbage dumpster. I'm gonna be in the next three hours. That's what happens. I mean, no, it's just that anybody who has smelly stuff tends to go to the one.

Do you resent the people who fucking are so like? No, I mean, if I walk through the area, I can't, I mean, like one person that loves like curry and it's like, oh, it just gets everywhere all in the room. I have personal experience with this queue. Yeah, well, you're a super smelly. I was. Yeah, but I remember going up to the office,

um, the view of ski offices, time and time again, and there would be, I would open the door, or be let in, and I would be like, what the, I would hit you like a ton of bricks. Mm-hmm, great. And I went to Mingman time, I was just like, dude, what the fuck? Who on earth is so fucking foul?

That they would think that it's okay to bring in that little tiny office and put fish in that microwave. Meanwhile, it makes even a bet sandwich. No, it wasn't. He goes, he goes, yeah, it is kind of uncurious, but what are you gonna do? You had that like, what are you gonna do?

What can I do? And I'd be like, what, you just can't be like, hey man, for the fucking sake of everybody's well-being, you can't bring fucking fish into a fucking room. That's like... That's a small office. Right. And the microwave is right off the door. Yeah.

And time and time again, I would walk in and be like, some people just got our fucking rude. They just have no fucking sympathy or courtesy for anybody else in the office. Courage is a rough one. And the person doing it was the fucking, fucking be all bitch all of the whole place. It was like fuck you. I'll cook my fish We're gonna do get them Eat right in front of a Good fish put the whole thing out that pulls out the bones He ate right in front of him, put a big bread on him. This is a fucking good fish. Put the whole fish around the balls out the bones.

Look at fish bones at his face. It smells good, right? All right, so what do you think of Bri and Q's assessment of Gidham's answer? It's not pretty reasonable, yeah. So you think he handled that first question? I think he did, but the only thing is you have to be prepared to give the answer to what if the answer you gave is a good enough.

You have to have scenarios plead out. So you could say let's all be reasonable and try to accommodate each other. But the second that doesn't work, you got to kind of, I would think you'd have to go with what Q said. It's like, look, if you guys can't find common ground, it's out of here. I just think you're running in, pulling the plug and just throwing it out of the case. I'm sorry, I'm not thinking fucking not.

I'm not thinking. I'm not thinking. Onto my own car. It's horrible. Yeah, it's crazy. It's crazy. All right, scenario two, they're just going to get harder. They're not going gonna get it easier.

That's the those are the easy one. That's the easiest. Okay. There's a co-worker. It's not you who is in charge of office birthday parties where music is allowed to be played and this person puts on a track with certain word. We know the word. Do I have to say the letter? I don't think so. WAP? word. We know the word. Do I have to say the letter? I don't think so. W-A-P? Sure. What ass pussy? No, it's a much more incendiary word. That is. Cues the DJ and he's playing a lot of Wu-Tang. Okay, gotcha. So, you know, this person has put on like track after track after track. At some point that word pops up and like people are singing you know and having a good time and that all of a sudden

everybody's office has just said that really in front of each other. So they all know this song. My heart is a single long with it. Yeah. All right go. You got to be to kill joy. Yeah, Jill, as I said, we've got to- Meanwhile, everyone in the office is black, so you have to tell them they can't listen to it. You know, we've gone through cultural sensitivity training. And-

By the way, this is why they do sensitivity training. It's just cover your ass, yeah. That's the only, so he can come down and be like, hey, man, you saw the same video tape I did when I allowed to play stuff, it's the only reason they do it. So he's doing this smart thing. Oh, so now I can't eat fish. And I can't sing my favorite song on my birthday.

You can't sing your favorite song. Just not in the off-screen environment. Can we get a censored version? You're like, hey, can we get the bleeped version? Maybe if you find a nice radio edited version, yes, we could we could try to find we could play that. We're going to have to limit it to specific songs, a generic happy birthday. And I'm sure you don't want it to come to that. You know, we all want to have fun. But again, we all are constrained by this sensitivity training. you sign the paperwork that said you attended it you ate the free sub sandwich so you're

kind of down by it. Oh I think that's a faux pas thrown in their face to free yeah no no they're not only signed for the jokes and you just try and answer these things. I'm trying to tell you we're doing great. This is a promotion online. Yeah man. So, man. So, I don't want to be on the slide.

I don't want to be on the slide. I don't want to seem to be the stuffy, you know. You want to be the fun still coach. Must be Michael Scott. Lovable coach, but who does at times have to come down on people. Yeah. Okay. That's tough.

Like, already like the job you subscribe, I'm like, I never want that job. I don't want to have to be like look We all went through sensitivity training So what so again sum it up. How do you handle the song? Who's in charge of music again? It violates HR policies the radio out after the bike I put the radio in the microwave That once fire it off the roof You know find a censored version or a more friendly friendly version you find it That is not my job because I

I'm not taking out the responsibility of being in charge of the birthday parties No respect no authority We're playing the fucking song. Until you find it, the song fucking stays on. I'm gonna build this. It's not I agree right away. You know, there's a chance someone could call it to the office while the song is playing and they can hear it in the background.

They can become offended. And, you know, that's not the kind of business we're trying to have. And not the kind of atmosphere we're trying to project. Gotcha. Pretty guy, you find. Probably, I think it's a great answer, but it sounds like it's such... It's so important. It's so important. It's so important. You find it. It sounds like it's such corporate speak like corporate speak light

I'll wait on start bringing up six sigma Just keep that Oh, I think you give the only answer you give really yeah, which is like look man You know this is an appropriate for the office. I'm sorry eyes as the manager. I can't just can't let it go We put in this day and age not in this day and age and somebody complain that's no it doesn't matter You gotta shut it down. No fun No, no fun just Has this pop up curator and your work environment that you guys have birthday breaks? This is popped up and not at birthday breaks. We've had just a stereo that any

Stereo is that anybody can use like during use during the shop and we've had to say, no, you can't put explicit stuff on because we have customers that come through. So no two live crew? Yeah. No bobbas barks. Well the good thing is you have an easy thing to go by is a little explicit sticker that Tim McGord did something good I guess. If it's got that, we just say like, look, you can't have car cars. You just put it on like a 70s channel and be safe. Or like that or no. I mean they presumably could sure. If it's like radio.

Well most people have iPods and stuff nowadays. We don't listen to music over the loudspeakers. I don't know. There's some Ray Charles songs that have some choice words of them. All right, so we're moving on. And so far, cute. I'm pretty impressed.

I'm surprised. Yeah. I mean, just take a stick to shove it up your ass and that's how you work it off. Yeah, I think he's giving the Pat Answers one would expect. Yeah, like you said, to cover his ass. There is a coworker who consistently compliments the females physical attributes in the office, the female co-workers.

He's always got a little something to say. And nobody's complaining. No, he's stupid, honey. You should be twacking. But there is a co-worker who is like, oh, you, it's, where is the line between by complimenting someone, oh, you look pretty today, or is even pretty the wrong choice of words or That sweater Is All right

You know as you're aware we had Sexual harassment training We also the video we all sign the paperwork You know you're At the soap sandwich. Yeah, well, I don't want to be a funny anymore. This could be a serious matter. Well, we've not received any complaints. You know, I've had some consultations with HR and we find your behaviors on the borderline.

It's not actionable yet. But I'm going to have to ask you to try to refrain and think twice before you give a compliment. And maybe, maybe, is it something that you would want someone to say to your mother? Woof! You know, would you be a mother? My mother's all that gross, why would I want her? Would you be offended if someone said that to your mother in a work environment and I know you know, all I said was like you look very pretty today.

And I understand. And my mother would find that very complimentary. Again, not what your mother would think, but you would think if someone said it's your mother in a... I'd be fine with that. Okay, I know I understand. I can't notice that someone's pretty in the office today When it comes to looks only pretty See when it comes to us

It is a what you gay bro You're gay, but I'm not There are other things your co-workers besides loves there's their work performance You know, I can't fuck their work performance well you know we have rules in this work place about our fraterization so you know what? fraterization I don't know if that's real word all right maybe I'm gonna let it go what are you talking about?

Frotter, we fraterization when you rub up against people like that and get off on it um you know did you see Cindy's fucking sweater, dude? It's so tight. Yes, her sweater hurts. You want to be able to do you can stop. I'm going to go turn the air conditioner up. Oh, come on, bro.

I'd be such a killjoy. Yes, why are you so gay? I know she has a great pair of sweater kids and it looks like both turkeys are done. Oh, and then try to appreciate himself with the boy. Love with another recording. Now they have your job. Again, I don't want to have this come to a point where we have to bring this up in front of HR and for it to go on your permanent record. So like I said, we're trying to make it

be concerned about their permanent record. Yes, we are before an actionable event. This is a verbal warning. It's not going to go into your file at all. Like I said, just in the future, just before you say it, think about it. You're fucking plastic. And you know what? This is America. We're all on side of our convenience. And many people do share your opinion. Right. What do you think? This is a total. This one is so dicey though. He's saying the exact right thing because you literally cannot even come in and say, like, hey, your hair looks nice.

Like, did you do something different with your hair? Yeah. I wouldn't be afraid. I would be afraid of something. She became a blonde overnight. She was a jet black the night before, now she's a blonde. You can't even be like, I think your hair,

I think you're gonna say, I like what you did with your hair. Yeah, I think it could say. You can say that. You can say that. I think you can't even be like I think I like what you did with your hair yeah I think it could say that you can say that I think you can compliment things that are not God-given attributes you can be like oh that's a nice dress because they chose the dress so you're complimenting yeah let me just do a spin you can't do that but you can be like because what you're complimenting is their choice. Their style. Yes, they made the choice. Hey, I think, hey, I love that dress looks great.

It's fun. You can't be like, hey, I like the way your tits look in that dress because now you're not complimenting. Yeah, but I don't think you would be. We all know what you're going to be. That crazy to say it out of. I don't. These days, no. But the reason, yeah, so I think he's still on.

He's still doing all right this guy. All right. Now, you said you have female cohorts. But the reason yeah, so I think he's still he's still on he's still doing all right this guy all right now You said you have female co-workers. Sure has that ever been a problem amongst other people there like that somebody had to be spoke to about Yeah, and we've actually had to fire somebody for it. Yeah They never really came out the matter to drop guy be the coach That's hiring. They never really came out. It's a matter to job, I need a coach. They never really came out publicly.

And said exactly what. But it was just a guy that didn't have a work mode versus a home mode. He couldn't turn it off at work. Home mode. Couldn't turn it off just compliment people in the way that like, quick when saying what you shouldn't be doing and got too many complaints and they had to say like, look dude, we can't be open for lawsuits. And you lawsuits and you're good guy and all but you can't you just could not keep his mouth shut. You couldn't he was incapable. He wasn't as gross as what the example cute used.

Yeah he was like tits. I mean it's close as you could get without just being directly outward but talking to people about like damn you that looks good today whatever you know this looks good and that looks good today yeah it was too much did what civil women are against yeah he was how many warnings yeah I was gonna say a lot enough that it's like they're like dude if you just cannot keep your mouth shut. You just have to say something. Yeah, I know that's like yeah. Yeah, he just couldn't couldn't shut himself off and uh have you ever had to complain to HR because someone's complimenting you too much? No, not not not recently now. I never got to leave. All right so you think he's three for three? So far I think he's three for three.

He's telling the interviewer exactly what they want to hear. Yeah. I should say that I've worked in a corporate environment. I've had these video classes and it's kind of, you know, what I've heard. Okay, you got the coworker who's in the bathroom. And he's talking to another coworker in the bathroom about last night's exploits.

They're in the bathroom. Do you walk in and hear it? He's crouching on one of the walls so he can listen in. He's a stender for the ceiling all the time. So you walk in, you hear the tail end at a conversation about what he was doing last night. And they're washing their hands and are getting ready back to go back to their cubicles. But while they were in the bathroom, no. He kind of gave, he was pretty explicit about what happened the night before.

You know, again, this is a, this is a workplace. Even in the bathroom. And though it, you know, a customer couldn't be... God, nobody's gonna like you, dude. There he is gonna hate this is a workplace. Even in the bathroom. You know, a customer could be... God, nobody's gonna like you, dude. Everybody's gonna hate you as a boss. No, a customer could potentially come into the bathroom or another employee who is offended by this could come into the bathroom.

And I don't wanna see you lose your job. You are a great worker. You have a specific set of skills, and those skills you excel at. And you know, we'd be at a loss if we didn't have those skills sometimes. Oh, I was hidden in last night. And I was so, I was right, so. And I got to tell somebody, it was freaky. And it's worth it.

And I understand that, but there are many avenues, y'all, those local YMCA, and you can use your locker roots talking in an actual locker room, and you know, get get it out there but this is not the venue for it. What the president says he just grabs by the pussy. And he's no longer the president for a reason. Not until 2024. What did you vote for? I'm not gonna go into that into this video.

Fucking vote for Biden, plus the one you say. Can be a Bernie. Law car, rob. Law car, rob. What a better email, that's all I know. Yeah, I mean, that's okay. So you wouldn't even allow it in the bathroom. Again, like you walk in, like you're taking a piss and they're like, I was hitting it okay. So you wouldn't even allow it in the bathroom again like you walk in

like I was hitting it so hard it was awesome and you know they're just like a little conversation between them self and then you fucking step into the middle you're in a like hey guys this isn't proper you know. Again I'm not I'm not putting this down on paper this is a verbal warning because you know it signs up in the bathroom. Yeah, signs every way. You know the way you really get rid of people's you established you you know you put it down on paper and established you know pattern of behavior and that's how you can you know but I'm just warning you you know again it's not an actionable offense yet. You're a chance to modify

your behavior in the work in the workplace. In the workplace, out of the workplace, you can do whatever you'd like. Oh, thanks. I'm generous of you. Oh, the office coach just created me permission to do what I want when I'm not at work. What a fucking sweet guy. He should be manager. All right, what do you think, Brian? I think he's off on that one.

I think you walk into it. You don't only correct a situation if you have to. Like a couple guys talking about like that look like they're in a conversation that is what's the word I'm looking for. Yeah, like he's not uncomfortable. He's engaged in it. Yeah, yeah. You know, he shouldn't insert himself in there and wedge himself in between the two guys.

Right, but I stopped talking about pussy. Yeah, that one I should insert himself in there and wedge himself in between the two guys Yeah, now when I think he's wrong. I think you're just you let that go. You don't have to address every single thing you hear Say I'm not gonna dress it. It's in the bathroom. Okay, what do you think? Look the guy That is taking the time to tell a coworker in graphic detail about the sexy had a night before you got to rain that guy in any chance you get any chance and you don't know if the person he's talking to is only pretending to be cool with it or is really quite upset or offended in some way so you know the bathroom is everybody's workplace you got to get you got to you got to shut it down there's a saying a a stitching time saves nine.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. So, you know, you and your fucking snappy motto is I'm sure that I don't get it. So your quotations woke up your ashes, fucking idiot. If you're wanting to get some inspirational posters for the bathroom. Wait, thank you, Raiders, I come up.

I think that the problem with the situation in there is if they didn't think to stop having the graphic conversation when the manager came in, are they going to stop having it when somebody else? If they stopped and they only have that conversation when it's the two of them, there's not really much you could do about it, but if they're not smart enough to stop having a graphic sexual conversation when their manager walks in, that's probably a sign that they need to be told, be careful who you're talking like this, if there's people around, you might,

you might make people uncomfortable. It's a good point. Did you ever walk in a night? Well, if somebody else had an ex conversation. No, I don't think anybody at our work really. It's that. You can get, nobody has the desire to come in and talk about graphic sexual exploits.

Okay. Now a firehouse is supposed to be a very jovial place. Look man. Chismo was fire. Firehouse is different. Well, when I went through, there were no female firefighters in in my house. There are two there now. Um the bathrooms co-ed? There are female bathrooms. There is a co-ed bathroom on the apparatus floor but there is a specifically designated female bathroom. It was anything goes. I mean this is the Wild West of the Aux. Early to them. There are early 2000s man. It was like there would be no problem with the fucking f*****. Any of the things that you have. Anything, you'd be like fucking asshole. What the fuck in the face?

What the fuck's the matter with you? It smells like your mother's pussy. The guy like it would be like stuff like that. And you know why? Everybody would laugh and you'd stop cooking the fish in the microwave. That's the way. Well, we can't ever go back to those days.

Well, I don't want to commit to that on microphone. No, I mean, it was a better working environment for me. Well, there's a sense of camaraderie, a brotherhood, right? Yeah, there's a sense of ball-busting and stuff that you lose. Not that to say that the female firefighters in the house have proven to be killed, joys. Actually, I hear quite the opposite. I just don't know them, so. Can you connect to the same level that without ball busting? I can't.

I don't think you can. I can't, no. No, I actually think it's impossible. Right, I agree with that. You need to have that to feel comfortable and almost like you know you're there's a fiction. Yeah, I will even say yeah, a fiction is a exact word. And I would say like anybody,

any dude for sure that compared to HR about something, I would be like, okay, they're within their rights. That's just not my type of person. So we're not going to become friends in whether the, you know know whoever the complaint was about I would just be like snitches get stitches in a Nord not ignored but like you just can't but look I can't trust you Right because I don't know where your boundaries are my friends don't appear to have It is it is I would say it is very tough when you can't

Bowl bust lightly with someone before yeah, yeah reactionary jerk Back to the bathroom There's a co-worker who just spends we too much time in the bathroom Ooh, this is their last name hotel your last name, hotel. That is a very tough one. I mean, they could have a medical condition and I do not feel comfortable. Well, the other employees are like, hey, you know what, we're doing a lot more work here because so and so, you know, every other time you look up, they're not at their

desk, they're in the bathroom. Well, I would not address that part of it. What I think I would do is address the productivity that they're not at their desk they're in the bathroom. Well, I would not address that part of it what I think I would do is address the productivity that they're... Would you... And set productivity goals that they need to meet otherwise you're going to have to be some kind of... Would you be comfortable asking like why they're in the bathroom? No, no, why?

No, you're going to be a medical condition. I'm not going to... I know HIPAA doesn't apply to me, but I am not gonna go anywhere here. HIPAA. What they wanna tell you? Well, this is why. I've heard you're a smart guy. You wanna take a look down here and see if there's anything.

I should be concerned about. We can try to provide reasonable accommodations, but you know, you work here. There's cert production controls. Can I bring a bed pan to my desk? We watched a video about this. Completely unsanitary, it goes against all health codes and outside of a hospital in Viram. He's just going to play at this street with every answer, you know that right? He's hangling for that promotion.

No, it's just the way you handle it. Yeah, the way you really think it's really good. But I know you, in your ways, you don't handle every situation like this though. Like you just, you're trying to make yourself sound really good in front of you. No, yeah. The delivery comes in. You act as if you've never seen a delivery you're for and you're like, or something comes in and you're like, how on earth do you need to be told to do a b and c But here you got all the fucking answers. Excuse in the room. Okay. No, we're talking we're talking about an office of 20 some of people

So it is not any oh it's a different environment then you know Three guys working in a Small retail shop together right. It's how is it different though? It's like it should be the same standard should be. Well, number one also is manager. I'm coach. Well, your scenario is I'm a manager second of delay. In your scenario, I am a manager, correct? Well, you're the coach, from just seeing how you would handle these situations become matter. You're still coach. I think that, you know, you're painting the scenarios in a weird way of like, I've not that I've never seen a delivery before, but I would like

to know where you would want this specific delivery. So you'll just sit and do nothing until I get here and in real life. You haven't done anything since it was delivered four days ago. You know, I didn't know what to do with it boss. So I don't want to make a decision boss unless Q's here. Some people are a master playing both sides. They are the the advocate and the devil's advocate. And until they walk in the room, you don't know what mood they're in. They are not a good dude. No matter what you say. So yeah, you put the delivery away. They come in and they're like, why did you put the delivery here?

I wanted the delivery over there. And then if you didn't put the delivery anywhere and say, I waited for you to come in to find out exactly where you want to be to put the delivery. And so I do, I was putting it in the right spot. So I was doing the work once rather than twice. And some people get upset about that then. So.

So the pain of middle management. Shit, man. He's got answers for everything, won't? Oh, I'm worried about that. Because you're in the chair right next to him. Although, there were days the first five minutes just set the whole tone for the day. He's just going to be a winning day or there's another one you need to win day. All right, so the answer to the coworker in the bathroom, you're just going to be like, hey, we need to talk about your productivity. Yes.

And, you know, if we can make reasonable accommodations, in order for you to fill your production goals and be on par with everyone else in the office. It's weird because, like, back, like, say, when we worked with you, it was given the early 2000s. If, say, Darren was in the bathroom all the time, you know when he came in and we'd all be like, what the fuck, dude? What are you doing in the back? You're joking all along. I'm like, yeah, I'm showing on.

You would attack him. Again. And I love the guy. You wouldn't do it no problems. No, but what the fuck? So you're not happy with that? No, I mean, it's probably the right way to go, but like... But there's no connection. You'll never connect with any of the employees underneath them.

No, if you need to think about every little fucking thing. And fucking just unlikable. I'm not writing that. But you're not there to be the most popular guy in the office. No, you're there to fucking do your job. I am the step between... I am the step between you and HR. And HR is not your friend. HR is only the company's friend.

You're protecting them from HR. Yes. And HR is protecting the company from that. I like it. I think approaching it from the product. Because by the way, let's say this employee is in the bathroom all the time, but far outstripping her coworkers in productivity. I don't know. They're on their phone actually working in the bathroom all the time but far outstripping her co-workers in productivity. Yeah, they're on their phone actually working in the bathroom.

Yeah, so I think that's a great way to approach it. I know what it was like when I had that one kidney stone and like every five minutes I had to go to the bathroom. I felt the urge to go to the bathroom and you know what you got, couldn't stop it. You know what I mean? Alright, what about the unknown co-worker? No way knows who it is. He's stealing food from the community.

Refugee. Oh, that's fission. Shit. What do you do? That's better. Confess. I mean, you got to leave it out. You can't go out in the queue.

So I'm pretty good. Yeah, you're going to far. Your choice is you write a code. You set up cameras, which I think some people would feel their privacy is violated. I mean, how would you feel if someone set up an audio and visual recording device in your workplace? I didn't tell you about it.

Well, you could tell everybody that there's cameras going up in the kitchen. But some people might take a privacy concern with that. How much privacy do you need in a fucking break room? Maybe they're just messy eaters and they don't want it like... Tough shit. Nah, that's the first time I disagreed with them. You put up those cameras.

You don't even tell them. Really? You find out who's stealing that food. That's where well he is. Well, well got him. Didn't you get your food stolen from Sears? Yeah. Why don't you love to know the son of a bitch that's

so your food? And you know what? I was just so taken aback by it. It's a lot of you. I was only there for like, you know, I was barely there anyway. I was mentally. I was so checked out. It just just makes sense that I was able to deal the food.

Look, I know the answer I would give you was the employee. And that's just leaving him a bomb. You know. Oh, you would put something in the food that's okay, sick. No, not safe. I got some million. Psychopath. I got some million Scoville pepper extract in the desk that I just put half of it. So why don't you do that as the office coach though? You know, you that's I would think that's a liability to the city. Oh, you're putting it on your own food.

It is, but it's not your fault fault but booby trapping is you know i would have to have i would have to show that i like my food hot and i didn't do that every then how do you show that i don't know i don't photoshop pictures of him at like jalapeno eating what you think you're i mean you're still in your food mean, it happens every now and then. Our work is bad because they actually provide a bunch of food, so people get confused sometimes over what's the provided stuff

versus what's ours. Although I recently had a fucking pack of deli lunch meat that the company would never buy just a pack of lunch meat and sure enough people steal the lunch meat out of it and you kind of just live with it. You label it properly, you keep an eye on it and you're acknowledging that when you're bringing it in, there's a chance for that to happen. That's a good point to why don't you just ask everybody to label their food clearly? I thought that they were labeling their food.

So that's why I was happy to have, that's why part of the sign would have been, you know, we're not responsible. Why don't you provide little Tupperware for each person? Like Jill, this is your little piece of Tupperware. I can't know. It's your Chills got the red bends got the blue. Yeah, no mistakes. There that would have been a nice way Yeah, one of their food doesn't fit the top where they're gonna buy another piece of topware. It's coming at your own So you don't like this answer. No, you know, like either right? Well, what was the answer exactly? I think you put a note up a sign up and then a note

what I think it's a reasonable answer yeah I would like to know what is I think our reasonable in the break room okay let's say this when he's saying he would put the cameras up he just put a sign up let's say you had like a list maybe and it said you know get them do not throw out and someone threw it out but they were so they were just mad at you so they threw it out Yes, yes, what is your recourse? I feel like I work with these people before the co-worker who takes angry dramatic personal calls in the office You can get a whole business no personal calls calls during work time. There's appropriate break. I was on break.

That's all. Again, we received. We've been in the Apple. We received phone calls, we had guests in the office, and they don't have to be subjected to your outbursts and to become a vendent by it. So if you would like, you can be subjected to your outbursts and to become a vendipiate. So, you know, if you would like, you can go down to your vehicle and, you know, how about your dog there?

Yeah. I'm not listening in under conversations, but it's brought to my attention. And the, the whole, I know, in fact, you tried to listen in on your co-workers' angry phone calls. When you, when we were all co-workers, I knew you'd be like stretching out of here.

Stretching out of here. Trying to hear what he was arguing about. And that was the dog. I said, one of the big ones at dog, like, it wasn't a dog. Oh, I don't know, there was so many. There were so many angry calls, but yeah. You would, he would never try to not try to listen to that.

Well, that's all. Again, sometimes you can't help but listen, but it's loud enough. What do you think, Brian? So that you tell them to go down to his car? Because it's, we, no personal calls during work hours. So, so if it is on break, he's just going to have to take himself outside of the work environment. Yeah, I think that's a pretty decent answer. So it's, it's private, you know, it's personal. Probably one of the hardest things to police though are people on their cell phones Yeah, like there's video compilations on YouTube of

People in a warehouse like on their phone like somebody's on their phone and somebody will go go go go go go and like they they hide it It's like a chickie. Yeah, it's funny. How many times people will do it like what their phone will be real fast what do you think you have yeah I think his answers correct as well you got to go outside for phone calls of that nature yeah it's disruptive to the office and it's just not the place to have these conversations I agree with them I think he's doing great so far yeah yeah it's pretty much dead on I mean it's kind of a weird test because all he has to do is always take the ass kissy fucking That's why we got this next one up that you cannot take the fucking crazy route Everyone at the office is having a low energy type of day. How do you perk everyone up?

You don't you have no answers you've never perked up anyone I want to say quite the opposite many times after that first five minutes I try But I have a right to I'm like hey go back up. No, listen to a point of falling over on purpose. I'm going to improve the mood. How do you do it with an office of at least 15 people who are just sagging. It's Wednesday, hump day. You know, hump day, yep.

It's working contest. What do you do? Or do you do numbing? No, I'm going to say, yeah, you know what? Let's take an hour. I ordered some zah. It's in the break room. Car bump everyone. I got some nice two-liter bottles of soda.

You know, come on. Let's just, let's all get going. Let's talk about our weekends. Alright, yeah, let's put some mootang on. I'm going to tell you about this shit I caught this weekend. We're in awful circle. Alright, well, what do you think, Brian? I don't know, that's not a great answer. You think it would work? I don't think so.

Like if my smooth is sagging and they're like, hey, I'm going to buy you some pizza. I'm going to buy you some. Oh, and so, no. Yeah, I think I wouldn't do it for me. I would be like, look at everybody else happy with fucking pizza and fucking soul- so fucking asshole man call it You know I've been in this situation with my right is room and I have been I haven't been like let's have some Zah but I haven't like Fuck it. Who wants to go see a movie?

And I'm just take everybody out we go to like fuck it who wants to go see a movie and I'm just take everybody out we go to a bar grab it here and go see now where is that command of the budget where you're paying for anybody yeah I'll pick it up you'll pick it up so could he be expected to do the same thing though oh movies is there a response just like hey where fuck is everybody no I don't know he can do that I'm just saying like I understand what he's saying I've done it and I think it is a good morale booster I think it's completely appropriate for business with with multiple employees from time to time to be like hey guys

Fuck it. Let's just let's do that a few skew. Yeah, once a while we go out to like Fridays for lunch Yeah, I think you do and I think it's good morale you are down at the stash was slaving away I think it's good morale. You were down at the stash was leaving away I was This was a website. He's down there. Why isn't anyone in the phone up there? Okay, now this one is I don't know if we've ever talked about this one's a very personal experience if we haven't talked about a curator You would be able to tell us if we have talked about it being the curator But if we haven't talked about it is one of the most craziest things that I Can't believe hasn't come up yet, but it may be it has.

Here's a worker who claims another worker came out of the bathroom nude except for his sneakers. I think this has been discussed. Yeah, we talked about this. Yeah, it's been discussed. You don't know who the part, they don't want to say who it was, but how do you address that? Well, I'm so

Okay, who doesn't say who who is You just get it you just let the note that in your thing. Hey, somebody came out of the bathroom nude except for their sneakers Okay, and we think it was someone from your office and we think it was someone from your office, okay? I would my you know, swavway, I go and ask everybody what they were doing around that time. I'm going to say walking around. No, because I can honestly say I've spoken to everyone and no one has admitted to being there at that time and that date they all have alibis and so I don't believe it was one of our employees.

Are you my manager? I'm not best to you. Thank you. What were you doing last Thursday? Did you all catch that movie at like six o'clock? I was just trying to out there and blow it in the sneakers. I went sneaker shop. All the seats you were at, what sneakers were you going to?

Footlocker. But I was back. I came back to the office. I actually had someone curry him over to me I tried to mind immediately I was on the living to the office again without video proof or anything I witness testimony is You don't believe women He's women. You could go through like their key cards like the the check-in and check out cards if we have them if we had them yeah. But like what's that much trouble as the office manager. For this guy it's something that's walking around the office nude. Like some cleaner was like hey I saw it I would be like all right if it happens again.

The reason I brought this scenario up because a couple years ago you were accused of being uh... office worker who came out of the bathroom nude except for shoes yeah by the women of uescue the women who worked here no no no it wasn't a woman who worked there it was a cleaning woman because it was after hours and a cleaning said that somebody who worked in the office uh... had had accident because those bathrooms had a shower in it

if I'm not mistaken, right? Those views keep at the bottom. Which office, wait. The older one, the older one that we worked in together. It has shower, yeah. That has shower. I'm assuming that. So the cleaning lady told who?

Told Carol. And she confronted you and like, were you walking around nude? Carol, for some reason, assumed that it was me. I don't know how you could keep your fucking 10 per check. What? That is so fucking crazy to accuse you of walking around nude.

The very fact that she had the balls, I'm afraid to say that. And it seemed more than an accusation at the time. I remember it seemed more like, all right, we know you did this. Just admit it. You Can't do this now So there was a cleaning lady for inside the office. Yeah, it was an office building like was a building building like this Much like this that had many offices and the cleaning lady would go in a clean different

Clean the hallways clean different. I was I was we had our only I was picturing it was the the bathroom is downstairs It would be like as if suddenly somebody walked out of this bathroom naked except for shoes on Well, that's a public hallway Right that's what this would be to okay, okay, okay Yeah, but that I never forgot to this so crazy that somebody had the fucking goal to be like yeah I don't get offended like frequently at things, but I was just like seriously like what do you think of me? Yeah, how on earth could you think that I'd be the person doing this? Yeah, and like with a whole office full of other like buildings There was like a countenance and shit like a couple other different businesses with him

I definitely more prone to fucking prince around nude sure I get my I get my team make sure they had set out of eyes and then defend them. To the death. Oh yeah. All of a sudden now all those guys are real hostile to you are like fucking you know like you got my back. I get it. I may seem like I'm the bad guy sometimes but I am trying to protect you.

That's who you're trying to protect. I'm trying to protect my team, my family. Oh that is your father. I'm trying to protect my team, my family. Oh, that is your father. Wow, look at this guy. He is angling for that promotion. Yeah. Whatever hurts my brother hurts me.

What's this, dude? Tell you, yes. It's all right. Nothing ever happened. You can tell Q's not like it was like really in the corporate world, because you're very on top of like the women in shit. Oh yeah. Where's here at the Telm Steve Dave general store? We're like,

ah, I'm like, it's only guys that exist right? Anything like that ever happened? No, nothing like that. No. And you're, you would be considered in the South too, right? So it's not crazy, right? I mean, it would be pretty crazy. Anywhere. I don't. It's crazy that the guy had shoes on it work. I'm not a problem. I'm not a problem. I'm not a problem. I'm a problem. They're there. who knows what's going on in there. All right, so cute You you say I think he's got it. I think he's got it, right? Yeah, I'd have to agree. I mean for most of the questions I I think he gave the right answer he gave the solid

2022 answer that would Right have a problem. Yeah, but I want to say that you know a lot about us you know we know nothing about you but you know more about us than you know from all these years you think he's deserving of the promotion yeah I would say so good answers and we're you guys when we're playing a game I think the thing going to help them is that you're not working with anybody except you, so it's not like a lot of these things are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up.

But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up.

But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But we have a lot of these things that are going to come up. But I we all know that it doesn't matter what anybody but you think well Exactly, so what is the thing? And you know what? There's one big reason why I can't vote to give you the promotion.

Oh no. Oh no. There's one reason. There's one reason. There's one reason. The point was fucking I just thought. Literally. And he was pre-determined.

It was literally been in power. Any other, you knew already. You knew already. Because I'm not, I don't want to invest in a new uniform that says manager. We already got the uniform that's in the coach. Well one could say that the manager's duties encompass the coach's duties, so that is the set uniform. One is going to have to say that. Sure.

That makes you feel better, yes. Yeah, you're a manager, but the uniform will always say coach. Yes. Congratulations. Congratulations, Bob. Thank you very much. Thank you. Office manager.

Office manager. Wow. Love this manager. Wow. Does this come with some sort of party where we can crank music with the unworded in it? But then we go out one. Tell Steve Sayyland hit the music.
