Here's Kelty Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jack Vanek. Let's make this quick. Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Lady Gang. I am Becca. You're with Jack and Kelty. This is a quickie, quickie, quickie, quickie. Quickie, quickie.

Quickie, quickie. Hey, guys. Guess what I have. What? Retinol zits. Oh, gosh. I tried to use it again for the first time in a long time. Not great.

Guys, listen to our friends at ClearStem. What? they said we not everybody is a retinol person no clearly triggers my fungal acne like immediately it's not something i'm ever going to be taking part in it's not and if it it's just accept your fate kelty it's not for you you already have great skin you don't need to be doing that skin yeah i know i got sent like a gift and it had like a you know it's like a 14 piece set from Korea and I tried everything and, um, yeah, it was a mistake. That'll do it. That'll do it. I mean, trying everything new. Some people, some people do really well with retinol. I think you

have to have like tough skin. I do have to, I feel like I do have to, the problem is, well, actually the problem is my neck, not my neck, my chest. Like I, I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to have two different skincare plans. One is for the face and then one could be a little harsher for the chest because I have a lot of discoloration. I feel like the retinoid is actually doing wonders on the old lady chest, but it's too hard on the face. So I think that's what I'm going to do for the future. Good for you. Okay. Today is a quickie called Lady Most Likely, and we are going to post these on Instagram. And I think it would be really fun for everyone to take the post and put it in their group chat with their girlfriends and see what the answers are for

them. Okay. So number one, who is the lady gang? The lady most likely to still have a Blackberry if it was socially acceptable. Kelty Knight. Yes. Because I would be the most likely to have a sidekick obviously, because that was the emo phone of choice. But the Blackberry was so professional. It was for the working lady. Yeah. I do think that a BlackBerry would be very helpful for me because I now I'm so good at typing on my phone while I'm not looking at my phone. Well, the BlackBerry actually had the keys. You could feel the little buttons. And I could really be going ham. But then if you had a BlackBerry, would you be allowed to have your sign off on emails? Say, I send weird emails at weird times,

no need to reply outside your own schedule saw that for the first time the other day you didn't wait do you know why i did it because you email at like 3 a.m yeah well but but in therapy okay so here's what happened i can tell you the whole story i want to know you're gonna really you're gonna really understand this okay okay okay so also before you start you know you can schedule emails. Yeah. This is important. This is part of the story. Okay. So I realized that I work at weird times and I send emails at weird times and I've been having a lot of trouble with those boundaries. And so in therapy, I was discussing that, you know, I need to send these emails at weird times. And this was like seven months ago. And then we were like, well, we should

schedule them. So this is what I started doing because I prefer to work on Sunday. I like a day when I can just do all my emails by myself, catch up, but I know that nobody wants to get an email at like Sunday at 5 p.m. So what I would do is I would schedule them all and they would go out Monday morning or Tuesday morning or whatever. And then what happened is that Gmail shit the bed and lost a ton of my emails. They don't schedule. They schedule some, and then some just go into the ether. And then I'd be like, I sent that. I sent that. And I go back, I go back into my emails, nowhere to be found. So the technology is not perfect yet for the scheduled email. So I was like, in therapy, I don't know what to do because I have to put on my own oxygen mask

and I need to not be stressed out and I need my Sunday to be able to work. But these scheduled emails, like they're getting lost in the ether sometimes. So then we decided that what I would do, and I saw it on someone else's email, what I would do would just put a thing that says there was like this executive that had like this, you know, away message that was basically like, hey, like I'm sorry I'm a dick, but don't feel the need to respond right away. And that was where I came to in my calmness. Do you really hate it that much?

I don't think it helps. Let me just tell you something. I think it should go without saying no one should ever respond to any email outside their schedule ever, period, even if it's business hours. So it's like even if I get an email at 11 a.m. on a Monday, unless it's extremely timely, I want you to know I'm not feeling the urge to respond in a timely manner. So you think I can just not have it? No.

I know. I think it's a cop out. I think it's like, because if you're still going to send the email, it's not, and it's like reading the fine print. And if you're somebody like me, that my emails just get pushed to my phone anyways,

I'm still getting the email and it's still giving me a surge of anxiety. Sunday scaries. I know. I think you should try the technology again. And I mean, really worst case, I know this is awful for you.

Very terrible. but you could have a note section. I do this actually, when it's a really important email that I don't want to send right away. I have a note section where I copy and paste that exact email, the body of the email into the thing and be like, this is it because I can't lose it. I know. And you should try the scheduled emails again. Okay. And don't skim. Do you feel less weird about it knowing that I tried? I appreciate that you tried. I do, but I don't think people receiving this know that you tried and technology failed you because for most of us google's pretty solid but i think we're sure everybody else does um so hold on let me chat gbt i want to know if

there's a limit to how many scheduled emails you can do because i wonder if that was my problem like if i had like also you guys we it has come to my attention it is very millennial of us to say chat gbt gbt it's gpt i know that that is a mandela effect i swear to god what do you mean what's a mandela effect a mandela effect is like one of those things like you know with like the berenstain bears like it's really the berenstain bears but like everybody remembers it oh yeah or like everybody like remembered it's nelson mandela dying in prison in the 90s but he didn't he was like alive for 20 more years it's this like collective false memory that everybody has but i think that chat gbt is a mandela effect because i swear it was chat gbt no apparently

it's a real millennial thing i think too many one millennial messed it up for all of us and then we heard it and we couldn't go back i think it's because it's easier to say than chat gpt it rolls off the tongue easier but i just call it chat yeah well i got trolled on instagram by sammy our friend sammy who's like up with all the young kids and i said i was talking to camera and i said something about chat gbt and she's like you old lady it is chat gpt just call chat what is gmail chat what does gmail say about or what is okay they don't they don't impose a strict limit on the total number of scheduled emails however there is a cap on how many you can schedule at once. So what is it? It doesn't say. Oh, maybe like meeting at the same time of the

same day. 8 a.m. Yeah. So why don't you just do half 8 a.m., half 9? That's what I'm going to try. I think that's what happened. So I would have like 75 emails going out at 8 a.m. on Monday and like only half of them. Yeah. Only half of them went out. And then I was like, this shit. Okay. Listen, this was very helpful. She's trying again. This is helpful for me. I'm not removing it yet because I feel in my heart, I think it's the right thing for me, but I'm going to re I'm going to retry it. And if the, if I have two successful Sunday scaries with Mondays going out with everything perfectly, I will remove my byline. Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much. It's kind of like playing hot potato. It's like playing hot potato and being like, it's out of my, it's off

my desk. It's off my to-do list. Here you go. It's Sunday at four, like a hundred percent. Yeah. And you're like that's good for you to have it but it's not still not good for the recipient it's putting on your oxygen mask and then throwing us out of the plane so you're only good for your boundary but not for everybody else not saying that i didn't know that she's taking it in a hundred percent i knew it a hundred percent and i was like uh people are getting these emails and like it sucks but like this i'm sorry like sunday at five is my most creative time like it's my best That is the time that everybody else's anxiety is on high, high, high alert. But that's when my anxiety is on high alert.

And that is what helps my anxiety is like working through all this stuff. So I do think scheduling, I think we're going to schedule things for like seven, eight, like I'll do 10 per time zone. I think it's going to help. And if this fixes my problem, then I am very thankful to the lady gang. Listen, Kelty, your best quality is that you'd really take a note and you don't get defensive. Yeah. I got this.

It's truly your best quality. I don't know how you were like this, but I really think you should be rewarded right now for your acceptance. Thank you. It's from the Rockettes. Even when I went and did the Rockette dance in New York, I swear to God. Well, also like just from my mom, like my whole life being like, stand up straight. And I'm like, I'm not going to be like, or like, you know, she was like, you know, dance moms. I don't know. Not really. She wasn't really a dance mom. It's really the Rockettes because even when I went just like a few weeks ago when we were in New York and I got to dance with the Rockettes and I was so excited about it. Julie, my old director was there and that bitch was giving me notes. Like really? Like I was in

the line. She literally like came over. It was like maybe four minutes into me learning the choreography or like we're ready to film or whatever. She comes home and she goes on your strut kits. You really need to like get your legs together at the end. And then I yelled out to her and I was like, Oh my God, did I just get a note from Julie? We are back. Like it was so funny. and she was like and then we did it and she goes kelty knight always good at taking a note i remember that about you so that's funny yeah but then i wanted her notes because i like even i was doing this dance and then i had to do a uh a right develop a kick and like i'm not a righty i wasn't a righty then i'm certainly not a righty after 15 years of not dancing and i kept i watched the

video and i was like my kick looks like shit julie what do i do the internet's gonna come for me although no one would care but i would care and um she was like okay just do this like so she's giving me notes anyway she was amazing it was really really fun and i i'm good at taking a note unfortunately i hate that i'm the person at the rockets with the most notes and in life the most notes like that's not my favorite place to be i would prefer to be somewhere where no one you're receptive to them i was gonna say i can't either i'm sure people have so many notes for me but they're like i wouldn't dare like i'll live with whatever this is no i will read her life puts one note the lady gang lady most likely to get a tattoo on a girl's trip during like whim

not me you'd have none me probably yeah yeah i would kelty i mean kelty's pretty spontaneous with her tats who's gonna get a tattoo at lady world me so many i don't think we can have one so many we're working on it we had our team reach out to the tattoo artist in Destin area and then we got an email back about like the health code I don't think you can tattoo people in the middle of the field well we got to figure out something because our girls want flash tattoos maybe in like the conference room or something of the hotel I'm not setting it up another activity area I'll tell you that right now the tent what about the tent there's air conditioning there's walls there's grass and dirt we need to figure this out we got that's my dream

so he had to go stand sit on the sidewalk because he was so embarrassed that my car had flat tires that's wild who's most likely to accidentally join a cult love it and then try to recruit the rest of us kelty i was gonna say jack i'm smarter than that no jack has never subscribed to anything other than emo music yes like emo culture and conspiracy theories that's yeah but you don't train cults for that i'm thinking for myself that's the opposite of a cult except when you thought that everything was a simulation but really it was just christianity what you were you were pitching us you just wait until you die you'll know you'll be like but i won't know who is right you go to this magical land where everything is someone up there has been

orchestrating the whole time is this heaven or is this a computer that was funny that was my favorite um who's most likely to bring a flask to an event jack vanek a hundred percent yep okay who's most likely to start a wellness trend that nobody asked for kelty knight i keep my wellness to myself nobody wants to hear about your wellness you the royal you not just you kelsey yeah no everyone the royal you okay who's most likely to forget someone's name mid-conversation and wing it i feel like this is healthy night like why am i so mean to myself i hate this just to wing it no i forget names all the time but i have this like like i have a special ability to try to figure it out like circumventally figure it out

see what an ex is doing you're just like oh my god don't press anything don't press anything how often do you go searching for the exes not often but when you do you go deep no actually like none of my exes are searchable which is actually nice they're like all kind of off the grid so there's nothing to really see it's weird a lot of a lot of my exes I want to go like stalk them but then I can't because they have private Instagram accounts but it always says like follow back so it means that they have been watching me this whole time and I anything they're doing yes awkward oh my god I love it I I really haven't been on the x train in a long time.
