Happy Friday, besties. It's happy hour. Woo. Woo woo. Fuck yeah. We survived the week. We are so happy to be joining you at the end of your week today. What do we have going on? I think they have a listener story, don't we, Ashley? We got something interesting in the HR Besties mailbox. We did. Do you want me to kick off with that? Yeah. To get this happy hour started? It's always good to start with some hot goss. I know we've got a dish about something. When it's a story of a story, but this happened to this HR Besties listener and we love these submissions and this one made me smile. So, you know, recently

guys, we were talking about like global things that happen globally and traditions like Lee talking about the glass with the water in it or going to P.F. Chang's. We got taken your Chinese colleagues to P.F. Chang's when they visit. Well, so this listener, this brought up a memory, a repressed memory in her mind. And this listener happens to be in Japan and works in HR. And she wanted to share with us a toxic boss story that is so unbelievable, but true, as the best ones are. I'm excited. And HR is nodding along right now because, what's our motto? What did you share the other day,

Jane? The summary of my job, you can't make this shit up. Yeah, you literally can't make this shit up. No. Yeah. And only Ashley's read this story. Yeah. So this is new for us.

Ooh, I'm excited. You will get our legit reactions. So this person's boss is the CEO. So they report. So shout out to HR reporting to the CEO. So we'll give them a small amount of kudos on that. Exactly. Not finance. But the CEO is an expat from Japan. And recently he took the whole executive team out in Japan and had an executive team summit.

And after the meeting, he had his daughter, who was in her early 20s, meet them so they could spend the rest of the day touring around the city, go to dinner. And so after the dinner, Mr. CEO asked our listener, and then the only other female exec, to go ahead and escort his daughter back to the hotel so that he and the male executive team, who he called the gentlemen, could go out. And our listener said, I was momentarily confused as to why the men were going out with the women, but then I understood that the gentlemen were going to a gentleman's club. And I asked him if he's sure that that's the right thing to do, which again, pause, shout

out to listener for the in the moment coaching opportunity for Mr. CEO, which of course his response was to again say, please take my daughter back to the hotel, which we did, trying to hide our shock and disgust from her. Following the trip, Mr. CEO included a $3,000 non-itemized bill to the Gentleman's Club in his expense report. And yes, he was reimbursed, which as she well ends says, makes open kimono even more cringy. Oh my god. I mean, look, they just want to see some titties. But on a work thing? That's really a thing, right?

I mean, that is definitely a cultural difference there. Yes. I mean, that is fairly common in other parts of the world, you know, like the menfolk still going out alone. The gentlemen. In other parts of the world, like Manhattan. I know, yeah, I know, like Dallas. But it's a cultural thing, but even just in an organization, culturally, you know what I mean? But that is really cringe for me,

and that would really piss me off, personally, to not be included in something. You know what I mean? I want to see Tiddy too. No, it's literally a work event. No, no, but you know what I mean, right? I mean, like, okay, someone's going to tuck me in and pat me on the fucking head too. I mean, what the fuck, you know? Why did I bring all these fucking ones? Like, I wanted to see some titties. Come on, y'all. This is the exact team. It should be like, I don't know, tens, twenties. Come on. Yeah, that's valid. Well, I mean, at $3,000, I'm thinking if that was an expense, that probably wasn't singles. That was probably drinks. That's right.

Lap dances? And that's probably just the main bill. I'm sure people put other things on their corporate cards. You know what I mean? Yes, I'm sure. That's probably a 15K night plus. But this world of HR that's like, you can't make this shit up and things happen. And even when you have like, which so many people in that moment and after would just

be like, I can't say anything. I can't say anything because you are worried about your job at risk or the CEO saying things to you. But to say that in the moment and be like, are you sure that's the right thing to do? Please take my daughter. Just take my daughter. Girls, I wonder if the daughter knew. I mean, maybe. One, why was she even coming? Like for real though, like to the, even prior to titties. I mean, why are you inviting your daughter? And then to have to have someone to escort her because we're going to go look at titties. Like what? Yeah.

Have you guys ever been, have you, have you? Literally thinking. Yes, I've been to a strip club. No. Cool. Not my question, but I appreciate that. I love learning every Friday at happy hour. Love the transparency.

I love the transparency. But have you, have you, have you ever been in a meeting where an executive, especially senior, most executive, brings their child in. And you're like, OK. Often it's like maybe a college student that's like, I have ideas on how you guys should run your business. I've sat through some of those sometimes.

And you're just like, no, no. And again, I preach. I just made a video recently on having friendships of all ages. So I'm not trying to poo poo that. But it's like that experience where it's like the executive and their child. and you know it's only a matter of time because they're going to take your job. And so you're like, okay. Or they hire them.

You know, I'm sure that this is a common thing, but I cannot tell you how many executives have either sent me their child's resume to review or asked me to do mock interviews. I mean, literally in my 21 years, I have done this numerous times and it irks the shit out of me. And then I'm thinking, well, I am getting paid to do this because you're allowing me to do this on company time. Well, no, you're not. I mean, technically. But they're not like, okay, Jamie, what can I take off your plate so that you can do this instead? You're expected to do all of your work work. Hey, will you take a look at my daughter's resume? Oh, gosh.

That's not a service. I can't tell you how many times. Yeah. Oh, it's a lot. Or hey, can you just put my niece on the payroll so that they can work here? Or can you put my nephew? Nepo babies.

No, seriously, that's a thing. I know we've said the road to hell is paved with incentive trips and holiday parties, but I also think we got to add it's also paved- Titty bars. With the chairman of the board's nephew's fraternity brother, who's going to be hired as an intern, and then shows up and does nothing. And you can't do anything about it if you want to have job security. And so I think those, I am sure this, this at this happy hour, those, those in HR are cheersing the number of resumes they've been asked to look at. When if, if a, if a frontline employee were to like have to bring their child to work

for something or they wanted to do that, it would be like time theft, use of company resources. It's against this policy all of a sudden. But like, yeah, help out. And so what I think would be much more valuable, and perhaps this is more of a Wednesday topic because this is more business than bullshit, but for organizations, if you want to do something nice, have HR, take some things off their plate

and have a day where you help out, and give resume tips, including families and dependents of some of your frontline employees. Yeah, that is actually really cool. Like that just came to me after most good ideas come. So I'm going to put that on the back of a napkin. But to do that, that's going to be a better use of people's time in a short amount of

time and do some of those to help. And that I'm more receptive to, of helping people that probably are more needing and appreciative of help. But just don't blame HR for that shit. more receptive to, of helping people that probably are more needing and appreciative of help. Mm-hmm. But just don't blame HR for that shit. Like if you're listening to this and you do not work in HR, which I think is the majority of our listeners, honestly, we have a ton of people that, you know, listen because they're

leaders, they're professionals, they want to learn something. I don't know, maybe they just like listening to us talk. That's what I was going to say, they like Lee's voice. And they like my voice and that's okay too. Just say a few names. We're going to say. They like my voice. And they like my voice, and that's okay too. Just say a few names. We're going to pull some names from a hat. I know, right? Johnny, hey John.

Hey Steve. Hey Michael. It's wonderful to have you here listening. Someone's going back 15 seconds. Ben Moe, me 20 bucks. Exactly. Can you add, wait, what's the upsell for FeetPix, Lee? Oh my God.

$200. I was going to say $500. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Sorry. Inflation, shit. Okay. Okay. Well, mine are $250. Yeah, I know. Well, you know what I mean? Damn. You know, and this economy should at least $500. I mean, you want the pair, right? $250 for one, shit. But, you know, just don't blame HR for this shit. Because we do pushback. We do counsel, we do coach. But you know, someone's brother being an intern here or something is not our hill to die on. Like we, we get fired too. I've definitely been

fired for not going along for something. And that's one of those things where it's not necessarily an integrity issue. Right. You things where it's not necessarily an integrity issue. It's not illegal. How about that? It's one of those gray ethics concerns where it's like, damn, you should not be doing this really for your professional brand CEO. You look cringy as fuck doing this. I highly don't recommend it. We don't have a policy on it. But should you really be doing it? It's like a lot of those conversations are happening. But just because Jamie's processing the fucking payroll on it or coaching or whatever, don't be coming at us because we have to eat too. It's just not one of those hills to die on. It's

not something gravely illegal. It's just totally inappropriate. What can you do? As an HR professional, do I make a note that I said, don't do this and document it? I fucking absolutely do. You put it in Discover, you send the email. CYA, cover your ass. If anyone's ever done a termination of employment, and some of those back pocket things have not come out of like, well, this is what I was asked to do, or this happened a few years ago, that's when like, you know, that that wallet comes out of the back and the things. But the unfortunate thing is that people don't

feel comfortable talking about that. And it just creates, you know, toxicity, having one like, literally intern Having one, literally, intern, of like, some are intern of this executive, this board member, someone they know can make an environment toxic because all of a sudden the number one qualification everyone talks about with that person is their relationship to an executive. Everybody knows what that means. And so then it's like completely unequal. Everybody's pissed. Even if someone is qualified. Some of the best situations I've seen have been even relatives of those board members

that come and work those roles and show that they're there. They do, they work alongside people, but often it's like. Did you say it worth the squeeze? Yeah, and they'll be executives. Well, I'm an executive. I'm an owner. I'm this. This is my company.

Okay, well, this is my life and I am going to choose to live it elsewhere. And blast it on Glassdoor is what response you should expect. Crypto is like the financial system, but different. It doesn't care where you come from, what you look like, your credit score, or your outrageous food delivery habits. Crypto is finance for everyone, everywhere, all the time. Kraken, see what crypto can be.

Not investment advice. Crypto trading involves risk of loss. Kraken's registration details at kraken.com slash legal slash ca dash pru dash disclaimer. So I have a good one though. That's pretty adjacent, right? So you talking right there reminded me of this one time I was integrating a new business into a much larger business. And the previous president of that business came to me like in March or something, like

really late for a summer intern, right, and said, hey, I need you to put a summer intern into payroll. I was like, well, we're not doing interns here. This place is a fucking shit show. Like we're in the middle of acquisition. And I mean, you know, like, why the fuck would we put an intern here? And oh, FYI, that would have started last summer, basically, like August of last year in this huge Fortune 10 company, right? All the interns are placed. What are you talking about?

There's a formal process for this. And then it starts to become crystal clear. Oh, yeah. And then he goes, no, no, no, this is just someone that we've always had in the business. She's come the last couple of years. I'm like, who is it? It was his Swedish maid. So this adorable, gorgeous, like Swedish model that,

what is it that people that stay in the house? Oh, pear? Oh, pear. Okay, like all rude, I called it maize. I couldn't think of the word though, you know? I was thinking docent. I was like, it's not a docent. Followed it like walking around the museum.

Let me show you your own house. This is the way. Exactly. Exactly. These are your children. Let me introduce you to your children. Pretty much. No, literally. It's like a 10,000 square foot house. No, literally.

They get to visit with them once a week. But no, it was that sort of situation where he would bring her in, put her on payroll. The wife goes on vacation for the summer and whatever happens in that mansion during the summer happens. I am paying her to do whatever like that. Anyways, I told him, oh no, that's legally impossible because of course, I had to get a visa or whatever. All these things have to happen.

The student, all this bullshit in the last, she's starting next week. Fuck no, she's not anyway. That guy and I bought a lot. But but good times. Well, I'm just amazed it was she's starting next week and not she started last week. Yeah, or today. For real? Well, she ain't getting paid.

Yeah. And she didn't get paid. Why didn't she? First I've heard of volunteer work. Yeah, but she has she needs a visa. Come on. It's like the Mary Poppins, bibbidi babbidi boo expectation that, oh my God, as well, if anybody in HR has had to deal with

trying to get the visa. Oh God, no. Don't turn it this way. I've got stories for fucking days. Don't turn the conversation that way. I can't. I can't. We can't. You know what? Oh, me too. It's horrific. J1s. Oh, girl. Oh my gosh. But man, that's a great story there. It is. Are you sure you want to do it? And then you go and you know, just like us besties would be, you know that this executive, they probably already are besties being the only two females on this team, but you know

they are poking each other, texting each other about what the fuck are we going to do? And like, what are we going to say? Good night. Yeah. Do we, do we tuck her in and then I'd be like, all right, let's go out. Let's go out after, after we... On the company bill and spend 4,000. Fuck y'all. Because that pisses me off not being included like that, you know? Yeah. Lee wants to see titties too. Well, I just want to be out with my team forming bonds and team building, you know, and treat it like the executive that I used to be. I've never been to a strip club. Not that way.

For a team bonding experience. Okay. No, no, no, experience. Okay, I got it. No, no, no, no. Oh my God. No, yeah, I haven't been to... For a team bonding experience. Jamie and I both just did the eyes emoji, if you can... Leah, I understand what you're saying.

I'm joking about the titties, but like... I've only been to the men's side kind. I've only been to the kind with men. Oh, like Thunder from Down Under? Yeah. Yeah. I love this. I haven't been to the strip clubs where it's women.

I actually recall a story that Lee once told us. Oh gosh, which one? Yeah, now I'm trying to remember. I'm on now, text it to me and I'll let you know if I'll share it. You're like, you don't want to hear it. No one needs me here. And there's a girl, you got a brand. Okay. You got a brand to protect. Just like in a meeting where sometimes a short phrase or word can capture everything or the phrase bless your heart can communicate so much. Lee's, yeah, is going to capture a lot, I think,

in my mind. So yeah. Like maybe instead of titties, we go to Topgolf. I love Topgolf. I love going to Topgolf. I didn't recognize. I've never been and I want to go so bad. Oh, it's so fun. We have one in Nashville too. Oh, yeah. Never been. You should go. I like to drink and eat there. Yeah. I just want to like hit balls really hard. Yeah. Yeah. And I'll hit balls hard. Yeah. Um, I, some people will bring their own clubs to top golf. Oh, get a fucking grip. Chill the fuck out. Okay. Ashley did it. I mean, I just, well, no, here's, no, I haven't, I haven't, but I'm a lefty lady golfer. And so when I show up, the only left handed clubs they have are men's. So

I haven't brought, I haven't brought my own exactly for that. Cause I would assume the reaction would be exactly as what you guys, what you guys just did. And so I'm happy to pressure test that privately amongst this group and on a podcast. I bet some of our listeners have some good top golf stories and about like some executive bringing like their golf clubs with you, probably making the intern bring them. Oh yeah. I would overcompensate for you. Like if you brought your golf clubs, I'd be like, she's a lefty. She's a lefty. See, that's bestie.

Oh, I know. She tried to smooth it out for you. That is bestie. Jamie came in. Well, speaking of Jamie came in this week as ride or die bestie on Lee. Oh, jee whiz. It was, right? You said this.

Everybody, I am the researcher. Jamie is the all around best, best of a type of bestie wing moment that will come for you hard, right? Yeah. And she did this week for Lee. Yes, because somebody told me that I had my, it was a long comment, actually.

It was long. I mean, it was like impressive to me that someone would write that. What was worrisome to me is more fascinating, right? Like a documentary sort of topic that someone would write like such a long comment. It was like 20 lines of comment to just say they were jealous of my eyelashes. I mean, because that's all they had to say, right? But, you know, it was this long ass comment. And they said that what I have, eyelashes like a $2 hooker. That's how it is. But yeah, because it started with it started with

the she which again, she obviously doesn't listen to podcasts because we've said in the past, when you leave a comment, yes, other people can see it. But so can we not always, you know, we don't see all of our comments, which is for the best. But when you say she, like we, you, we can see it. And so she described you as she, I think she was like, if she were my HR person, I couldn't focus whatsoever because of her eyelashes. Oh, do you want me to just read it? I found it. Yeah, let's do it. Well, you brought it up, so let me read it. She says, what the fuck is, now this is a

public comment on Instagram FYI. And I know sometimes we talk about comments on here, but it was I've probably received like 100 messages from people because I put this in my stories. What the fuck is with those eyelashes for question marks? Can you not make an effort to at least make them look like you cared enough not to try and distract anyone who's forced to have a conversation with you? Mother, I mean, damn, you know, fuck. So she did use you.

So she is, she does realize she's talking to you. Damn, I was wrong. My memory was faulty. If I was called into your office for an HR meeting, I wouldn't have a clue what was discussed because the entire meeting, I would be trying to clue what was discussed because the entire meeting I would be trying to come up with the tactful HR appropriate way to tell you that you look like a $2 hooker. Oh my God. Okay. First of all, $2. I said at least $2,000. I mean $2 in this economy. Are you fucking kidding me?

Yeah. I mean, look how much her feet pics are going for her. Well, and she has her Instagram under her real name. So bless that. Oh, and she's from Canada. And so I said to Lee, I said it was even more insulting because that's about a dollar forty three. A dollar forty three. What the heck? Oh, my goodness. I know. But that was my first reaction. I was like, two dollars should I mean, at least two thousand in this economy. I can't even buy eggs for that shit. Damn.

You know, no. So it's weird because it was kind of like complimentary, but not in a, you know what I mean? Like, I don't know, it's weird. Like she's distracted but I guess because they're so disgusting. I don't know. Then Jamie comes in. Oh, then Jamie comes in, writes her a comment of course. She said, I'm gonna send this to your employer. I just simply let her know that I was sending it to her employer. That's all. And it did get sent to her employer. It did get sent to her employer.

Damn. So that's my advice. If you're going to be clocking those bitch overtime hours of BOTs, do not use your real name. Yeah, that's a good point. I reported it as hate speech. I used these normal techniques. I reported it as hate speech because I hated it.

I hated it. It's bullying and harassment, but yeah, that was a good one. Then I came in with a long comment about how pathetic and sad she must be. Oh yeah, yours was funny, man. What did you say? Like, put this in your, write this in your sad diary or some sad journal. Yes, I said there's two things,

two things you should do with this. One is write it in your world's saddest diary. Or two, keep it out. And basically don't try to bring down someone who has, and your whole video was about like kindness and uplifting people. I like, that was the ironic part, but anyway. Yes, it was all about positivity, you know?

And so for someone to come in with that bullshit was just fascinating. That's what they got out of the video. And what's wild is that video, my eyelashes, that was just one coat of mascara. That was like a quickie job. It wasn't like your normal. No, it wasn't very thick.

Because sometimes the volume, TMI, you know, ladies or anyone who wears mascara, the volume of the mascara on your eyes can change because you're putting multiple coats on or whatever. Well, sometimes my anxiety will get real bad. I'm overthinking on something. And I'll just sit there and just like, I'm putting a shit ton on. So then they're like super dark. You know what I'm talking about? I mean, you know, but it wasn't one of those days is my point. They were very thin,

my God. But anyways, sorry for my $2 hooker eyes. But it always is so shocking to me that people It's so shocking to me that people comment on physical appearance under a video that you posted. Like they almost forget that we can read those comments. We're people too. I know I don't know. I know I've bitched about this so many times, but it just irks the shit out of me. I just feel bad for them. Well, I just took a picture.

I'm going to put it on our Instagram story, like right when we when we publish this, go live. Because I don't know why, Jamie, it looked like, are your headphones around your neck now? Yeah, they were making them off like you're a DJ. No, they fucking made a weird noise. We're making a weird noise. So I had to take them off.

Y'all sounded like fucking aliens. More so than I usually do. Yeah. But you look like you have like a turtleneck or a barber thing on. And so I'm going to put this on the story. Yeah, she looks cool as shit. Look at her. She goes hard. That's right. Look at that. There you go. Now we're going to put them back on.

Anyway, it looked funny when they were around there. So I just took a picture. So I'll pop that on our Instagram story, hrbestiespodinsta. We have a speakers agent now, which is cool as shit. So what is that? That means that we had an organization reach out to us, Gotham Artists, shout out, saying they wanted to represent us for speaking engagements, which is amazing.

I know. So HR Besties, and then all of us individually as well. So I mean, what an honor, right? That is so cool. So we have profiles out there now. We have them in our bios. If you want to book us, please do. But our agent, coolest shit, fun fact, Anthony Bourdain's agent of like 20 years. I mean, what the fuck? Like, Lori, shout out to Lori Barnett. She's amazing. So you'll see it. So if you do ever want anything, you can go to our page. We have a goal speaking thing and you can reach out because she she does that. But it's just it's it's so wild. I mean, for all of

us, I think so. Like a little old me. What? Well, don't call yourself old because I'm older than you. Little young you. Oh, I know. Oh, well, only by a few months, please. Well, I'm Zess. That counts. That counts as the elder of this group.

But we love being out there because we love meeting you all in person. Right? I mean, we love doing the speaking thing. I have an engagement at a headquarters in Pennsylvania here in a couple of weeks, and I won't divulge the name yet, but I'm so excited for that. So excited. And the same goes with conferences too, right?

Everyone's reaching out, asking us which conferences are we gonna be at this year and all that. And we're, you know, we're having conversations, we're having discussions, you know, but we love to be out there and shaking hands, kissing babies, all that bullshit, you know, but we love to be out there and shaking hands, kissing babies, all that bullshit. Isn't that kind of a funny like thing, like kissing babies? Like, would you want your baby kissed, Jamie? I mean, I don't know if I'd want to kiss a baby or have a baby.

No, thank you. I thought I did once. I would want to kiss a baby. Well, like cuddle with it. But I wouldn't. I wouldn't cross that boundary. We were flying to New York. My daughter, now she's a teenager, but she was a baby, like 10 months old. And we flew to New York and I got off the plane and Gail King was right there at the end of the runway waiting as she was going from New York to Atlanta. I could not have thrown my daughter harder at her. I mean, I have a picture. I'll put it I will put it. I do have that picture. So I'll pop it on the story. I mean, literally, I'm like, I mean, I don't know. I certainly don't know her. I mean, she smiled and she was very friendly, but like, maybe that maybe, I don't know. You gave her your baby?

Yes. Yes. And she took her and she's- Did she ask for it? I don't think so. See, I think that's what's happening is that people are giving people their babies to kiss. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I'd like to think in my mind, she asked. So Oprah is your daughter's godmother by default. Yes, yes.

That's right. Yes, this is true. By default. Oh, that's cool as shit. Damn. Well, yeah, but conferences, yes. I mean, excited about those. Do you have any crazy conference experiences that you can share?

No, I bring a very professional. I do people do ask, that is one thing that, that is one thing. Well, that is one thing that they're like, and I say this to people all the time. And that's just part of the reason why in my filming, I took down our HR bestie sign for some of my things because it said business and bullshit. And I thought, well, I got to be professional. And so we do bring a, bring professional. So please know that we have.

Well, maybe y'all do. I know. I was like, I'm a slut for conferences and I go hard. Like I like to go out and schmooze and dine and booze and all of that. And some conferences they leave some conferences, you drink. Yeah, it's true. People have champagne and whatever else at their booths, and I just circulate and chat.

I'm happy to do that. I've spoken a number of times in person. I do a lot virtually now, a lot of team building stuff. Yeah. But thank you. But I spoke when I was in Sydney. I spoke at the International Bar Association Conference on this panel.

And this weekend too, the people, it was with like a panelist there from like Ireland, Paris, like our whole panel, we talked about like religion at work, like religion at work and different things around the world, but it was like from like the Irish and Parisian speakers.

And all saw the two of them were together at a conference this weekend.

And I was like, oh my God, our dream team. It was so much fun. And all of our prep calls were super fun. So we love all that stuff. I like going to conferences too. I think it's just fun to be there and meet people. The energy, the swag, all of that. Oh, I love a good conference.

But definitely reach out if you'd like to see your HR besties on the road. We love that you all drop in our emails and DMs and let us know where you all are going to be too and what conferences you're attending. So that's awesome. It's good to keep developing. Yay, learning growth, always. Learning, yay. Yay, book us. I've learned enough.

Oh, it's happy hour. Everyone's drinking. I haven't even started drinking. Oh, gosh. So imagine you had a conference, huh? We're real professional. Yeah, we're very professional. I said y'all were, not so much me.

Exactly, right? There we go. There we go. Hey, it's always good to let loose, have a little happy hour. Yeah, we're very professional. I said y'all were, not so much me. Exactly, right?
