We're back again with more Reddit stories that will blow your mind.
Starting point is 00:00:19 And these ones are rather work-related. So I brought two guests here who do actual work here at Smosh. Spencer and Tommy. Yeah, we do. Thank you for being here. I do this. I get to just sit here and read Reddit stories. You guys have to edit and do stuff and have meetings, which I'm invited to. I see you back in that little chair. Yeah, I see in the back corner. Shane, have you ever done jobs outside of acting, like
Starting point is 00:00:51 before you were an actor? No. I am very lucky to say that I, you know, I started acting when I was like, I started auditioning when I was 13. And, uh, you know, when you're doing that as a teen, and I, I wasn't working constantly, but I was also taking classes, I was in high school still. And then I'd been fortunate enough. I like, lily padded from job that just paid my rent long enough, that literally I would get my bank account down to being like, I need to go, to, to, to, to, and, to, to, and, and, to, to, and, to, and, to, and, to, to, and, to, and, and, to, and, to, and, and, to, and, and, to, and, and, to, and, and, and, and, and, to, and, to, to, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, to, I, to, to, th......................... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. get my bank account down to being like I need to get I need to go where my plan was and I was very close to this before I booked Smosh of like I was going to go work at
Starting point is 00:01:31 Starbucks because they had a program that would pay for ASU online if you logged a certain amount of hours every week so I had a whole plan but this this this became thus I would say Smosh is actually the closest this is the most normal job I've ever worked because working on sets otherwise I'm purely just acting you do nothing else here I actually do other things sometimes Shane be working you do be working yeah but it's still a silly job it's a silly job and I do far less of the like grueling work than everyone else in this room. I mean I work but it's also a silly job. It's a silly job. And I do far less of the like grueling work than everyone else in this room. I mean I work but it's also a silly job. Right, but you guys
Starting point is 00:02:10 have to do like, you do a lot more of the technical, a lot of the like, just really, the not-fun parts of the silly job. That's true. I'll say that it's less fun than this. Yeah, I'll say that it's less fun than this. Yeah, I agree. This is, this is like the core. Yeah. Yeah, this is the most fun part. Yeah, this is this is dope. So these encompass all forms of jobs. Some are corporate, some are more, you know, retail, service types of jobs. The whole gamut, if you will, but all of them are weird. We're bad. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:45 I'm so excited. Let's find out. First story. Am I the asshole for getting a job where my husband works? Uh-oh. Hi all, my husband started his job at a restaurant just a few months back. He's told me about all of his co-workers and how it's a friendly environment. I enjoy hearing his stories, but have been really concerned about one of his co-workers. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Apparently, she serves the same time he buses, and he's talked about how nice she is. He serves she buses. And how they go. Already, working in a restaurant, together is nightmare. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No. My brother met his wife at a restaurant, but they were working there at the same time and is nightmare. Yeah, yeah, no. My brother met his wife at a restaurant, but they were working there at the same time and then. I know it's like a theater department back there,
Starting point is 00:03:29 like they're all fucking each other. Oh yeah, always, sure. There's always drama, especially if they're related. No, it sounds chaotic. Apparently she serves the same time he serving and busing together it's something so he's busing no work sexual style okay we've had problems with infidelity in the past on his half so I really didn't like how he was talking about her so about a week ago I applied to work at the same place to be a waitress.
Starting point is 00:04:06 During the interview, we did briefly mention my husband and how I could be scheduled to work alongside him. The owner is pretty big on families, it seems. I just started today. They started with training and teaching where everything was. Where I may be the assel is, I never told thi, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, I, the the told, told, told, and, the the the, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, to me. to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to to me, to to me, to told, to me, told. told, told my husband any of this. So me being there today absolutely made him livid. He didn't speak to me unless he was told to, and the co-worker he always talked about did the same. I like being a waitress.
Starting point is 00:04:34 I've done it before, but his reaction has been so over the top. His and his co-workers reactions have made me even more suspicious, and now I'm wondering if I should even trust him at all. I think you kind of lose, this might be problematic, and I'm starting right up, I think you kind of lose a lot of your rights in a relationship once you cheat. Well, certainly like, I mean, once you do that, like, trust is fucking gone. Yeah. And like, you need to go to therapy and you need to, what I've heard is like, that relationship., like, like, that relationship, that relationship, that relationship, that relationship, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I you kind, I you kind, I you, I you, I you, I you, I you, I you, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thin, I thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I thi,, like, trust is fucking gone. And like, you need to go to therapy, and you need to, what I've heard is like, that relationship's over and you need to start a new one.
Starting point is 00:05:09 Yeah, exactly. Clearly, they're not past him cheating before. So, of course she doesn't trust him because he did that. And it does sound, the fact that the co-worker that he talks about is also being weird towards her, it's like, yeah, he's probably, he's probably doing that. And she quit being a lawyer to go work at a restaurant. No, I'm making that up. I was like, what was she, I was like, where was she just waiting around for this jaw?
Starting point is 00:05:33 I was like, where? I was like, I'm just, yeah, she's 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, th.. th. th. th. to, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, th. And, th. And, she's, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, he, to, probably, probably, to, to, probably, probably, to, probably, to, to, probably, to, probably, to, to, to, probably, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to, to, to, to, to, she just waiting around for this jaw? Like what? This just sounds like a bad relationship. She's not, yeah, she's not, she's not the asshole. She's just kind of, she's a little silly. Stupid? She's a little silly. No, yeah, like, like, Kiana, what did you say to me earlier? Like girl, girl, get up, like, girl, get up and get out. Like, the th. th. th. th. th. She, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, she. She's. th. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She's. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She, she. She, she. She, she. She, she. She, she. She, she. She, she. She, she, she. She, she, she. She, she. She, she. She, she. She. She, she. th. th. She. th. th. th. She's, she's, she's, she's, like, she's, she's not. th. th. the. th. th. the. th. th. the. She's, she's, she's, she's. She's girl, get up. It means like, hey, like, leave him. Yeah. Yeah, get up. Get up and get up and like, like, like, make some moves to like leave this guy
Starting point is 00:06:11 because like clearly, he's like, you know, if he's, if he's unfaithful once, yeah. Fool me once. There's a comment that I fully agree with. Dude is either cheating on her or working up to it, but this is nuts. If your spouse is a shitty cheating asshole, just leave them. You're not going to babysit and stock them into being a good person. That's so fair. Exactly. It's like, this, this is a lost cause. Yeah. Admit it, that. And now you're stuck working.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Yeah. Now you're working at Olive Garden? I wish they said the name of the restaurant. Well, because the owner is pretty big on families. Okay, she hinted it. She Easter egged. So, she's into it. How would you feel if you were just a co-worker here? Look, and like I said, I never worked a service job. If I was just a random co-worker,
Starting point is 00:06:55 not, not any part of this be the most exciting shit of my life. This sounds so fun. Oh, is it awful? Oh, my God. It's any, it's like, it's hard enough to be like, because I did, I waited tables at a Italian restaurant in Orlando where it was like. Is it caraba's? It was not. You wish. I wish.
Starting point is 00:07:18 I wish. And like, everyone was related. They were either like husband and wife, or they were brothers, and it was always like, I don't fuck it, that don't put that. And so you're already dealing with like, my pastas, my, and you're like, and you're like, yeah. And so you're just doing all the shit, and then you go back to where you're supposed to like, to go do the job part and their, and their, and freezer. Guaranteed. And the tears are just freezing immediately.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Also, great place to cry. Yeah, I bet it is. I haven't seen the bear, but I imagine that this is what it's like. Yeah. Yeah, I love that show. All right. Next one. This comes from a subredit co-worker stories. Ooh. Got a new one. All right, at work, we can be pretty immature,
Starting point is 00:08:07 laughing at dumb things, farting while someone is on the phone, being stupid and so on. I kind of have been over it lately. I like the job, but I'm tired of the playing around. When a dude farts, I don't bad an eye. When they make a dumb joke, I don't really thak thoak a thoak a thoak a joke I thoak a joke I thuu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu. thu. thu. thu. thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu. thu. thu. now I'm the bad guy at work and I apparently have an attitude because I don't laugh at farts. Any advice? Kimmy wrote down, Smosh, is that you?
Starting point is 00:08:34 Okay, Kimmy. Come on. this is a relatable story because we are very silly here. Yes, you're a silly. We're silly. But it's our job, we gotta. It's our job. We gotta be silly. But I think there are limits. And like there is a, you know, it's about reading the room. Like sometimes, because you, if you're silly all the time, it's exhausting. It's for'm saying like if I'm trying to get some real work done and someone comes up and farts, like, okay, well now I'm thinking that's really funny. Like, unfortunately this is really funny.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Spencer. Peeh. But yeah, no, I mean it's a time for work and a time for parts. Yeah, I mean we used to do this bit and I hated it and it was where we would sing happy birthday. In like every meeting. I say, I say we, I would like, I would leave. I would also leave as quick as possible. But we would do it anytime anyone entered the meeting room, we would start seeing happy. And this is on Zoom. This is Zoom. this is Zoom, so everyone's not synced up because you can't be perfectly synced up.
Starting point is 00:09:49 So it's just a cacophony of... It was just really bad. It was pretty awful. It was so annoying. And the hardest time in like recent history, we were doing that to ourselves. I have a solution for this. Come up with a new joke. Yeah. Shit your fucking pants. Yeah. Yeah. Then you get to go home.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Comedy is about escalation. And what's the ultimate escalation? Shitting your pants? Shitting your pants. Okay, let's just move on because that one's very silly. We've decided she should shit her pants. We've decided. Okay, here we go. Am I the asshole for telling my wife that I'm not taking off of work to be present at our daughter's birth? Oh. Let's hear him out. Let's hear him out. I work as an OBGYN. Well, okay. Is he literally going to be the one?
Starting point is 00:10:45 No, no, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Okay. No, he's probably a sim pilot or something. Okay. Okay. Here we go. My daughter is expected to be born sometime this month,
Starting point is 00:10:57 so I've been picking up extra work in order to have more money for when the baby came. Yesterday, I came home and my wife asked me when I would be taking off of work so I could be bedside. I told her that I couldn't because there was a big project coming up and that they needed me. My boss is also married to the sister of one of my wife's brother's friends. And they've all known each other for a long time. When I got out of the shower my wife tole that theymea th is is is th is the the the the they. they. th is their their their their their their their their their their their their th. their th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. they the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they their. they their their their their their their their their tod today today today today today today today today their their their their their their their their they they that she called my boss and that he was giving me as much time off as I needed with pay. Then she says, you told me that there was a project and that they needed you, but I was just told that you didn't even ask for any time off. In fact, you asked for more work?
Starting point is 00:11:35 I got upset, for one, and I told her this when with my boss to get me any special treatment. Two, I think it's disrespectful that she overruled my decision to work by going over my head. Instead of talking to me and having me call, if I decided to take time off, that is, and she decided by herself that I was going to take time off, and called the let you do it. How would you feel? She apologized about calling, but was still mad about why I never asked for time off. I explained to her that I wanted to work for extra money to have after the birth, and plus the baby wouldn't even remember me being there or not.
Starting point is 00:12:16 So true. She bur- You fucking got this, dude. Dude, the kid's not gonna remember the first couple years. Yeah. Just worked for us a few years. He's not gonna remember the first couple years either. She burst into tears and said that she wanted me to be there. And I felt bad and said, I would try to be there if I could. And everything was fine until this morning when I was getting ready for work and she said, you're still going to work? I said, yes, she asked, what if the baby starts to come?
Starting point is 00:12:46 I said that her mom will be here and that I will try to rush over to the hospital as fast as I could. She said, fine, go, I don't care anymore with an attitude, and I left. I just got a text from her. And it texts from other people's moms. Everyone's mom, or it texts me. And Shane's mom? I don't get what the big deal is. Why is everyone making such a big deal about me not being at bedside?
Starting point is 00:13:14 How many of you remember your parents being bedside? I want to take time off after the baby is born, so I could bond with her. It doesn't make then make then make then make then make the then make then make then make then make the thensensensensensensensensensensens thens thens thens thus thus thus thus thus thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the the the the the the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm togea, I'm too, tipe' tip-a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a, I'm, to take time off before then. I know my wife wants me to be there, but we're always together. Am I the asshole or is my wife not thinking straight? I try to be gentle with her because I know it's mostly her out of control hormones talking. But this is ridiculous. Woo! He had to sprinkle that in the end. He had to sprinkle Yeah. He had to be to sprinkle it the the to sprinkle it to sprinkle it. He. He. He to sprinkle, he to sprinkle, he to sprinkle, he to sprinkle, where. He. He to be to be to be to be to sprinkle, where.

Yeah, if I can nitpick when he's like, I really don't want to be getting special treatment
Starting point is 00:13:53 at work, I'm like, okay. You're gonna. Yeah, absolutely everyone would making it about how it's like the baby's not going to remember, it's like, yeah, but your fucking wife is pregnant and doing a crazy thing which is giving birth. Obviously, as most people know, like, childbirth is a dangerous and obviously super, super intense process. It's probably the most painful thing his wife is going to go through in her life and like emotionally taxing everything. And he's like, yeah, you got it, babe.
Starting point is 00:14:32 I'm gonna go work because I like it and I need money. He's lied about a project. He's just an asshole, just a bad guy. If they were like, we're fucked, honey. I've got to work until the last month. He's, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, and he's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's, like, like, like, he's, bad guy. If they were like desperate for money, if they were like, we're fucked, honey, I've got to work until the last month, then that's something, but he's just like. Yeah, if it was a situation where he had a nightmare job and a nightmare boss who's like, we're going to fire you if you take time. Or if like he communicated, like, look, this might be a weird perspective, but like, around like childbirth like that like that like that could be an angle but he doesn't even prevent present anything like
Starting point is 00:15:07 that like he's just like I like I don't really feel like like and not that that would be an excuse like you should because it's like it's your partners it's like the most significant moment of your relationship he's not offering any sort of legitimate yeah like support like if he wrote if he wrote like I am terrified yeah there the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th the the the the the the the. the. the. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. the. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I tr. I tr. I's tr. I's tr. I's tr. I's like. I's like. I's like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I's th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm tttttttttttttttttttttrue. I'm true. I'm true, like, like, like, like, t. Yeah, tr. I'm true. I'm like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like support. Like, because if he wrote, like, I am terrified of being there, or something, but he gave no reasons. Yeah, and again, not that that would justify it. Sure, but it would be at least vulnerable and honest. Yeah, there's no, there's no vulnerability, there's no honesty, and there's nothing in his

It must be the hormones making her crazy, not the fact that I am a huge piece of shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, pretty open closed case. Yep. That's another relationship that needs to end. Yep, get out of there. Our next story, I have heard that Tommy will particularly be fascinated by it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I don't know. But this one's dedicated to you, I guess. So this comes from Best of Reader Updates and malicious compliance. So, okay. Boss didn't believe I have cysts on my ass. Sorry, boss didn't believe I have cysts on my ass. Pilodontal Sis? Pilodonysis.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Okay. Some backstory, kind of graphic. Some backstory. Some backstory. Oh, baby. Kind of graphic. Around June of 2022, I started getting this weird pain in my lower back, upper butt area.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Kind of right where the seam of your cheeks are. I thought it was because I tend to slouch in my gaming chair and sit on my tailbone.. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. Okay. I.

I thought it was because I tend to slouch in my gaming chair and sit on my tailbone. I shouldn't, bad posture, I know. Anyway, I thought it was just sore from that, and I fixed my posture a little bit and took extra care in the shower and cleaning that area, but the pain just kept getting worse. Fast forward a few months to to pain to itchy to pain to nothing at some points. About two months ago from writing this, I decided to look in the mirror and see what it was. I couldn't see, so I had to ask my girlfriend to look, LMAO. It was embarrassing to spread my ass cheeks for her, don't get me wrong, lull.
Starting point is 00:17:34 When I did though, she noticed what looked like a little hole, maybe about the size of a pea. And when I say hole, yes. I mean like, but holes? And when I say hole, yes, I mean like indented into my skin kind of hole. I won't get more graphic than that. But yes, it acts just like a normal zit, pops, pus, et cetera. I schedule a doctor's appointment and have them take a look. It's a pylinidal cyst. Actually, not just one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one thorororororororoctterterterterterter. And thoan and four tho tho tho tho tho tho thi.

Starting point is 00:18:06 One big one and four other small ones. And with cysts, the only way to get rid of them and surgically. So I scheduled my surgery. I go in in about two weeks from the time this posts, which me luck. Throughout this time, I had to take a few days off work for doctors appointments and basically told my boss the just for a routine appointment. I didn't want to scare them with a, hey, I might be off work for X amount of weeks just yet. When I got the news I needed surgery,
Starting point is 00:18:31 that is when I told him. Now, I do a labor intensive job in a factory, a lot of moving, lifting, etc. And I'm rather essential in my job. and it will suck losing me for two weeks. For whatever reason, my boss doesn't believe me to have anything wrong with me and thinks I am just trying to get out of work, because, yeah, who doesn't love two weeks of unpaid vacation time? I get home that day and take my clothes off and put my phone on the bathroom counter on a timer.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Turn around and spread my ass cheeks and camera click sounds, you can probably see what. you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who tho, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who th th th th th th th th th th th tho, tho, th tho, tho thoo th th thooo th thoooooo, th tho tho, tho where the... You can probably see... You're sending the whole pick. He showed hole. Turn around, spread my ass cheeks, and camera click sound. You can probably see where this is going. I upload the picture to my computer and print it. Print it. I upload the him to see
Starting point is 00:19:27 because I'm not trying to get fired or anything. I cropped around where I needed to. The next day, I bring in the folder which also has my letter of recommendation from my doctor for surgery. My surgery and at the very back, the last picture he will see is, in all of its glory, my hairy, white ass, LMAO. My boss avoided me for a while after I showed him the pictures. However, since then, he has actually not said a word about it and is treating me great. So yeah, well, that seemed to work. He probably, honestly, he probably didn't have to include the picture. He didn't need to do that.
Starting point is 00:20:00 All he needed to do that. Yeah, all he needs is a doctor. But you know what? I think for him not believing him, He gave the proof. He did give him the proof. There's not much to say, I feel like that. There's not much to say, and I'm very triggered. He got those cysts because of his bad posture. Because if you mash that area up and you got a those little sense. No way. I should be careful. This is tangental, but my mom had to get her gallbladder sucked out of her. You know how that, you can do that now and they just like take the little.
Starting point is 00:20:30 What? No. Yeah. You can't just say a sentence like that. Yeah. It's true. So it's like, if you, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, th. th. th. th. th. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. you. th. th. th. th. th. they. they. they can make a tiny little hole like in your tumy and they can like go in the little so my dad was like I need to take off work because my wife is going like under and getting like surgery and they're like we don't like we're not gonna do that or whatever and so he took the time off without it being
Starting point is 00:20:54 you know paid or whatever any my dad my dad my kid my dad my that's Here's her gallbladder. Can I get paid for it? Psycho behavior. Love you, Dad, so much. That's fucking awesome. That explains so much. It just feels very similar to this. Then he grabbed out of the back. It was like, grumble. Yeah. You know, he showed his whole ass.
Starting point is 00:21:14 He really, he really buried it all. Yeah, I mean, iconic for this guy to print this picture off? Like that's fucking cool. Yeah, he really, you know he he showed his whole ass. He really buried it all. Okay, there's an update. The ending was that my boss avoided me for a while after I showed him the pictures. However, since then he has actually not said a word about it and is treating me great. I had my surgery today. It went to today.

Starting point is 00:21:58 I think it's a very common thing, isn't it? It's common. It's not common. It's not common. It's not common. It's not common. It's not common. It's not common.

Yeah, good news for the guy once you get that surgery, that whole area is all scar tissue, it's not going to happen again baby. Oh, neat. That's nice.
Starting point is 00:22:17 Neat. How's it? .. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery. The recovery.

I still, I'm loving that it's like, he bends over and spreads the cheeks for his girlfriend, and she's like, there's like a hole here. What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What?

Well, there's a hole there. Oh my, I'm dying.
Starting point is 00:22:46 I'm dying. Okay, moving on. Okay, here we go. I think butt plugs come in a two pack? Okay. Not that one, babe. Is I bioport? Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Go on. Am I the asshole for reporting my co-worker to HR? I, a 37-year-old man, have recently found myself in a situation because I reported my co-worker, a 20s female to HR. A year ago, she started working for our company. She was withdrawn, shy, and tended to stick to the people that were in her training class. Over the last year, I've been trying to get to know her. Everything was fine until about three weeks ago when I heard her speaking to one of my friends, 20s male, about how she doesn't like talking to me. She's saying I'm stalking her while she's at work because I leave my area to talk to her. She gets along fine with him but thinks it's weird that a married man is giving her compliments and keeps walking into her
Starting point is 00:23:39 department to talk to her. Earlier this week she was talking to that same friend about tea. I'm also a tea drinker, so I asked if she likes Ulong, Earl Gray, breakfast tea, etc. She kept saying no, then caught an attitude with me when I responded to her last no with, I guess you only drink handcrafted artisan tea. She responded by saying, maybe I should have asked what kind of tea she drinks instead of naming random ones. After that, she walked back to her area. The next day, she brought five tea bags to my friends so he could try them. I looked at them and said she lied yesterday because one of them was a tea that she said she didn't like the day before. I asked her if she liked it and she said no, too.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Her response is why I reported her. It was basically saying you never asked about white tea and calling her a liar is disrespectful but I know that white tea is the same as Ulong tea. I'm just trying, I'm just trying to be nice. I reported her to HR for a hostile work environment. It didn't go the way I thought it would. It didn't go the way I thought it would, and now work has signed me up for a mandatory class on workplace harassment. I know HR talked to her on Tuesday because I was notified on Wednesday that I was required to take the class. I think she lied to HR to get me in trouble.
Starting point is 00:24:55 So am I the asshole for reporting her to HR when she is constantly aggressive towards me, fuck you. I knew this was bad when the first line of, over the last year I've been trying to get to know her. It's just like a weird thing of like... Yeah, he's posting on Reddit about it. This man's a psycho. He's, I feel bad for her that he...
Starting point is 00:25:17 He jumped to HR so fucking fast. Yeah, this is confusing because she says she likes white tea and he's like, oh, it's the same as Ulong tea. I'm not a tea expert, but there's a comment here that says white tea is not the same as Ulong tea, dip shit. So hostile work environment is a very serious claim. This is info from like a human resource management type of thing. It is defined as when harassing or discriminatory conduct is so severe and pervasive... the the the the the theeeeee. the. the. thiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. T thi. thi. T thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is thi. thi. thi. thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thi. This is thiiii. This is thiii. This is thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. This is thi. It is defined as, when harassing or discriminatory conduct is so severe and pervasive, it interferes with an individual's ability to perform their job, creates an intimidating, offensive, threatening, or humiliating work environment, or causes a situation where a person's psychological well-being
Starting point is 00:25:58 is adversely affected. So, not this. So not that. So not this at all. Not, hey, you need to be nice to me. And I'm pushing advances on you. I'm dying to know what compliments he was giving her. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:26:15 I know. He probably thought he was, he was being so slick. Yeah. If you try and get to know someone and they're not like trying to get to know you to know leave them alone. You're done. You're done. Just leave him alone. Yeah. So they're not in your department. Yeah. There's also a huge age gap. Like he's 37. She's likely early 20s. But I'm just guessing based on this guy. Look for the saying the story, yeah. You know for this, yes. Some other comments. I love the thought that he went to HR like, mom, she lied about tea. Yeah. Why have you been trying to get to know her? Have you been complimenting her? It sounds like unless it's about work, you should avoid
Starting point is 00:26:54 contacting her, to be honest. And then OP responded, I used to be shy like her and it was hard for me to go to work every day when I didn't have friends to do......, to be, to be, to be, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to be, to, to be a, to, to, to, to be, to, to, to be, to, to, to, to, to, to be, to, to, to, to, to, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to go to work every day when I didn't have friends to talk to. I thought I was helping her. Yes, I've complimented her a few times because, like I said, she's withdrawn from most people and it could be a confidence thing. I, yeah, I have a- He should have been getting her treats. Like various trinkets to kind of put around her. Yeah. Little things, I that, I I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'll, I, I, I, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I, I, I, I, I, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, like, tha, out of like wood and string that he finds in woods. Like effigies. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Like likeness of her. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. Yeah. Also, she doesn't need help at all. Yeah, but I'm just that logic. He talks about how she's talking to other people and she's friends with other people. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine. She's fine.

Starting point is 00:27:50 Co-worker did no work, then wanted a job reference from me. Not happening. This is from Petty Revenge. Yeah, no, that's huge. Years ago, I was part of a programming team. One of the senior team members had been promoted beyond her abilities. Due to work she'd done some years before on a suite of software tools that everyone in the company was forced to use, despite them being much clumsier to use than most equivalent
Starting point is 00:28:14 third-party applications. But that was her claim to fame getting promoted for her contribution to mediocrity. She somehow felt that this entitled to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their their their their their She somehow felt that this is... Damn! Us working at Smush. She somehow felt that this entitled her to sit in her office with her feet on her desk, reading paperback novels all day, while the rest of us engaged in various programming projects. The company eventually went into a tailspin and there were multiple rounds of layoffs. Our whole division got wiped out eventually. Some years later, I'm happily employed elsewhere. Ring, ring, goes the telephone.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Me. Hello, this is Mr. McDonald, human resources guy. Good afternoon, Mr. McDonald. I'm HR guy with XYZ Company. One of your former co-workers, Miss Novel Reader, has applied for a programming position with XYZ Co, and said you could give her a reference, me. Oh, did she now? Fascinating. Jesus Grace.
Starting point is 00:29:06 What would you like to know? Oh, fascinating. Oh, monocle top that? Oh, oh, hmm, yes. Can't wait to fuck her life up? Yeah. Who? Oh, oh, her glaweller! How long were you and she in the same department?
Starting point is 00:29:24 Me? About five years? Guy, great, what can you tell me about Miss Novel Reader's work during that time? Me. Well, nothing, I'm afraid. I never actually saw any. Guy. You were in the same department for five years and never saw any of her work? Me. In five years, I never saw any work from her. Long pause, Guy. Does that mean what it sounded like? Me, absolutely. Guy, thank you for your time.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Me, don't mention it. Woo! Wow. Damn. I'm just worried about like, This is from his perspective. All we have is his word. And it could be a potential.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Because it also sounds like he was... The potential is that he's that he's that he's that he's that he's that he's th. he he he he he he he he he he in he in he in th. th. th. In th. In th. In th.

Because it also sounds like he was... The potential is that he's very jealous of her and like... Yeah. But... If he's telling the truth, fuck yeah. Yeah. Because we have no other people. We have nothing to run work off of like... Like, look, let's say we believe him. Yeah, fuck yeah. Talk that shit. However, it's possible. It's possible. It's just like a misogynistic, like, because think of it, it's like programming.
Starting point is 00:30:29 It's like a mostly male-dominated field. We have a comment here. Someone says, I smell BS. Just a disgruntled dude who hated working with a woman. I'm sure your reference wasn't taken seriously. He responded, ha ha ha ha ha. I love working with women. They'll actually talk about something other than sports ball. Nice try though. Me. I love working with women. Actually you. Weird response. Weird response. It makes me trust them less. He's definitely
Starting point is 00:31:01 weird. Look we've dealt with people writing out their posts in weird ways. And it does always make me not like them. Look, from his story, do I, with the context we have, do I think what he did was wrong? No. Do I like him? I don't really like him. But that's because of the way he wrote this out. OK, let's let's change change change change change change change change change change change the the the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the story the the the the the the the the the theoe the thi. theateateo. thoeo. tho. tho. the thi. thi. thi. thi. the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. toe. toe. toe. toeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea. toeea. theeeeee. the. That's because of the way he wrote this out. Okay, let's change the story up a little bit. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:27 Let's say it was a dude, co-worker, like... I think I would still feel overall the same way. Yeah, it's just the way he's phrasing all this. The way he like wrote it out like a play. Yeah, I just, I just, the way he wrote it out, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th.. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. his writing. I didn't like his writing. She wrote it out like a play? Yeah, he literally wrote like me, him, me, him. No, that's corny. Like he's, he's savoring this. He's clearly a editor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Drogatory. All right. All right, let's move on. the a treats, because I am someone who I can, I'm a vacuum. And I will definitely be like, I could take two donuts, but is someone else going to not have a donut? But is someone pregnant?
Starting point is 00:32:17 But is someone pregnant? Okay. I, a 19-year-old man moved to New York City a couple months ago and found work in a small office. My boss brought in a couple boxes of donuts this morning and let us all have some. All in all, there were enough for all of us to have two, 12 employees and 24 donuts. The pregnant employee ended up not showing 30 minutes into the shift so far. So I had two more donuts for a total of four. And not even 10 minutes later, she to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to their to their to their to their to their their to their to their their their to tooiciciciciciiiocoicick a their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to to to to tooicic. I tooic. I c. I c. I c. I c. Ic. Ic. Ic. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. I too. I So I had two more donuts for a total of four. And not even 10 minutes later, she came walking in,
Starting point is 00:32:48 saying her truck broke down. She saw we all had donuts, and she asked me if there were any saved for her since our boss let her know she brought donuts. I calmly told her no since I assumed she skipped word. She got frustrated. She got frustrated and said that she had to skip breakfast today. I said so. I never eat breakfast. She said, this is the most 19 year old.
Starting point is 00:33:10 That's 19. I don't even eat breakfast, dude. I eat like four dinners. She said, this is kind of a bigger deal for a pregnant person than it is for some kid. At this point, my boss told me to get to work and gave her her uneaten donuts. The boss gave the pregnant woman her uneaten donuts. My boss called me into her office and said, I was being rude.
Starting point is 00:33:34 I told her that I thought my co-worker was skipping and offered to post here on Reddit. Hey, do you want me to post this on Reddit? I'll push this on Reddit and we'll see who's... We'll settle this. Yeah, we'll settle it. She said that, I mean, people would still see you as a jerk in the real world, even if a group of socially awkward kids took your side. Oh.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Oh, yeah, hell yeah, dude. Fuck. I wonder how Reddit's going to respond that. that. that. that. that. thue. thue. to to to to to thue. to to to to to to to to to to thue. tho. tho. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho, that, thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th.

I wonder how Reddit's going to respond to that. She thinks everybody on this site is 15 no matter what I say. So they're different. So that was the end of our conversation. My co-worker let me know she forgave me but never offered me an apology for her attitude or for dismissing me as some kid. Am I the pregnant woman.. I'm I'm I'm the pregnant. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th.

I'd be like, if I was pregnant, I would be like, you know, as a pregnant person, this is kind of a big deal to everything.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Oh yeah. Right. Like, you eat my donuts, like, I'm like, as a pregnant person, this is a big deal. This is kind of a big fucking deal. Yeah. Oh, the to tho, the woman keeps for tendon to go into labor to like get out of things? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:48 I think it might be rest of development. That's awesome. So look, I have never eaten more than two donuts. You're lying. I'm a sack of shit. I have not. I am actually very scared of this type of thing happening. So there's like, there's a, certainly, certainly, certainly, I's, I's, I's, I's, I, I's, I's, I, I, I's, I's, I, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm a thi, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thi. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi like there's a certainly like I feel like a waiting rule of like and 30 minutes is not long enough. No. Once the donuts are placed, it's like it's got to be a while
Starting point is 00:35:09 Yeah, to come back and be like, okay, I'm gonna. There was a rule too of the two donuts. Yes. It's like you got to follow that. Yeah, I would at least be asking other people. I'd be like, hey, do you think, do you. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the their. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their their their their their th. It's th. It's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their th. It's their their? And also I do think it's fucking crazy that he went and had the two extra donuts. Like there's two there's two left and it's like okay if anything take like I'll take like half of one of these donuts or I'll take one of the donuts to take both and have a total of four donuts I know you're 19 and at 19 you be being donuts you're just gonna do it you just gonna do it. You're just gonna tank those donuts. But like, just gonna fucking tank them. Sorry, I had to fucking tank those donuts. I had to take those donuts, sorry. But I love, I also love like, whatever, I never eat breakfast. That's so funny.
Starting point is 00:35:54 That's so funny. No, you're fine. Like, I don't do that. Everyone's just like me. Um, have you guys... Yeah with four donuts and it's like a chip on it. Whatever, I'm saving these for later. Some comments. Uh, wants to be seen as not just some kid, but immediately runs to the internet to absolve him of any wrongdoing and tells his boss what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Smart. Bonus you're the asshole to OP for attempting to get us on his side by mentioning his boss insulted Redditors. Everyone insults Redditors, including Redditors. It's so true. No one disses Redditors like on Reddit. It's like Weaser fans. The comments? It's like Weaser Fans.
Starting point is 00:36:34 I feel like Weaser Fans and Reddit. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's. The's. The's. The's. The's. T's. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... donut unless you bought them. Basic Workplace Edicate. I've never heard that term. I would never touch the last donut in general just because I'd be scared. I've, look, I'm not a bum taking the last donut. But you wouldn't eat four donuts.
Starting point is 00:36:54 If I had eaten three and like, you know, people'm like, okay, well yeah I'm gonna take it. Yeah. What I mean? Like if it was a fresh like back at Dify when we would have those donuts and people would come in on Friday every Friday. Every Friday, do you remember this at Dify? Yeah, kind of. There would be donuts every every morning, every Friday morning, every Friday. theyfied. They would go. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

Yeah, thi. Yeah, thi. Yeah, thi. Yeah, thi. Yeah, thi. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, thi. Yeah, like, like always get in, I would always get, yeah, because you were late, son of a bitch. No, because I would take it. Because I would at least take, or I would always take one there, but they're usually two or three.
Starting point is 00:37:31 Would I be the assuant if I bought a dozen donuts? And then I ate them all. Like I bought a dozen I, I brought, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, and I, and I, and I, I, I, and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd t, I'd t, I'd t, I'd t, I would t, I would would tak, I would took, I would took, I would at, I would at, I would at, I would at, I would at, I would at, I would at, I would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would would, I would would, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd t, I'd t, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd tak, I'd ta, ta, ta, I'd at, I'd at, at, I'd at, at, I would always tak, I would tak,ull coming like, donuts in the kitchen, and then I eat them. Oh. That'd be awesome. Within that time span of us walking into the kitchen, you're like, oh! And I'm like, ah! All right, here we go. Next one. So yes, asshole.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Yeah, asshole. Oh, totally. Hungy, hungry, hungry, ass.

Like, I just, I would never have said it out loud, but I totally at 19 understand the logic of like, so I never eat breakfast. Right. I totally get that like, it's fucking. The funniest fucking part of that whole thing is like, do you want to
Starting point is 00:38:19 to post this on Reddit? And by that that that that the funny that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the funniest. the funniest. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that's just just just just just just just just just just just just just just, th. that's just, that's just, thi. thi. that's funny. thi. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. that's funny. th. th. I love that. We'll get someone with other opinions. And by the way, she totally dissed you guys. She said you guys fucking suck. Here go. It's so funny. That's so funny. That's so funny. Okay. Sorry, I deleted all the files.
Starting point is 00:38:35 You told me to delete. This is malicious compliance. My job was to design and write pro, then a real software engineering team would build the real product. Occasionally, I would run the prototype for a few months while the customer evaluated if they wanted to buy the real project. Now these prototypes are not a lot of code, but they do run with a lot of data. Even compressed, it can be a terabyte or more. Having done this work for years, I've accumulated a small disk farm of past projects, which can be very useful when a customer asked for something just like what we did last year, but with a small change or two.
Starting point is 00:39:09 The company resisted buying hard drives for this, but it saved me so much time. I ended up buying one or two a year myself until I accumulated about ten of them. Figure over $1,000 worth of external drives. Then the unexpectedly management changes, new management thinks they can replace the old software guy with a cheaper new software grad, and I am laid off, with two weeks to train my replacement. Yes, it's blatant age discrimination, but impossible to fight.
Starting point is 00:39:36 So I just went for a graceful transition to my next job. The newer guy doesn't need breakfast. Except I have $1,000 of personal disk drives with old customer data on them. Company insists that no ex-employees may take any company data off-premises and all files must be deleted. I don't want to just leave the drives at the company, but they insist I must delete all data before taking them home. So I offer.
Starting point is 00:39:58 They can buy them from me. Or I will eventually use them for something else, but I can leave the data on them in case someone needs it. Not good enough. New manager insists I must delete all data and all backups before I remove the drives. Okay, that's what I do. Six months later, I got a series of desperate phone calls. New software grad has been unable to build any new prototypes. Old customers are calling to get old prototypes updated, and new software grad has no idea how to do that. The executive VP is calling to ask what it would take to bring me back to do my old job. Sorry, I've got a new job now. And even if I didn't, I cannot just modify the old prototype because you insisted I delete all old copies of it.
Starting point is 00:40:39 If I did want to modify it, I'd first have to recreate it from scratch. The code still exists in their source control, but the data is the heart of the prototypes, and that old series of six months apart data we collected is gone for good no matter what. Sorry, you screwed yourselves exactly like I told you would happen. Hope whatever you saved by hiring a new grad to replace an actually experienced programmer was worth it. Damn. That's rough. That's real rough. I'm not too savvy on like tech stuff, but I know from stuff here. It's all in the dating.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Like just just backups of things and stuff. And once you lose it, it's like, it's a huge deal. Yeah, yeah, I mean, that's like. I remember, I remember when Defy went under. biggest deal that we had a ton of stuff on drives and that was like we need to get that like that we were that was the only thing we were focused on for like a month or two so it's shocking that this company clearly was no data is like someone asked me the other day like what would you save in your house like besides your cats obviously like if they're a fire and to me it was like my computer like my laptop or my hard drives because that's like that's like like like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like like like like like like like like like like like that's like like that's like like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like th th. th. th. th. th. that's like that's like th. that's like th. that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that we that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi thi thi thi the thi thi the thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thi. they were a fire. And to me it was like my computer, like my laptop or my hard drives because
Starting point is 00:41:48 that's like data and that's like I can't replace a lot of that. Right. That is like the modern photo. It's yeah, it's like it's like pictures. It's also like, you know, footage from every video I've ever shot, you know, it's like, it's like, you know, it's data, like, everything else's things. Yeah, it's a, it's, yeah. This guy followed the rules. Yeah, he did his thing. He did exactly what he said to. He screwed over his replacement, which that's the only thing that's like. Did he?
Starting point is 00:42:15 I mean, the got, like, the replacement just got hired. Right. But, but, but well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

I mean, I don't know who knows how he trained him, but, uh, but yeah, he did nothing wrong. The new person didn't do anything wrong. Yeah, who's ultimately a fault is the higher-ups. And they're the ones who ultimately pay. You know, because the new hire, he has the job, like, he said an interesting comment. You think hiring a professional is expensive? Try hiring an amateur.
Starting point is 00:42:48 And that's an interesting thing because the cost you'll have to pay for things not working out and not being able to do the job. I can't wait. Dude, the day I get to throw that line in someone's face. I know. Ooh. That's a good, theyear-old moment for us. And someone said the epitome of congratulations you played yourself. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Yeah, that's a good one. It's a good malicious compliance right there. Ah, managers. Classic managers. Fuck them. Fuck them. All right. Love you, Rachel.
Starting point is 00:43:15 theyrtle, some. Okay, Batman. Okay, Batman. I'm in a little trouble at work because I've been sort of hiding my personal life. I've worked in this office for about nine years working my way up. I'm notoriously private and also believe in a clear separation of work and home life. With that, I never ever talk about home life. I'm not ashamed of my life. I just don't like to discuss it at work. My co-workers enjoy talking about their, their, their, their, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, their, I'm, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I th.

In this manner, none of my co-workers knew I'm married, have twin daughters and a very active personal life. Okay, for a second I thought he was Superman. It's like, hey Bill, sorry your wife died? Yeah, what about Jerry's wife?
Starting point is 00:43:58 Yeah, what about Jerry's wife? thii. th. Yeah.

She spent several weeks. Hey, I love her. Yeah, she's iconic already. The slew. The things you have twin daughters. There's a lot of baby stuff around here. Man, it smells like wife in here.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Do you know anything about that? We hired, uh, she spent several weeks getting as close to everyone as possible. However, she does this to seek out potentially useful information she can hold over people's heads. Try as she did, I never gave her anything. My co-workers view me as... She tortured him. Tell us! No! How many kids? Try as she did, I never gave her anything. My co-workers view me as a sort of enigma. Compartmentalization aside, I've made some great friendships at work.
Starting point is 00:44:52 There are more things to talk about than my husband and my kids. They are a big part of my life, but I'm not even going to martyr myself and say they're the most important. They're hugely important and come before before before before before before before before before before before before before before before before before'm not a sycophant and I enjoy the 10 hours a day I'm at work when I get to be an adult and talk about things other than Jojo Siwa and the newest Kardashian exploit.

I've already reported her to HR. But the problem is my co-workers are acting like this is a big fucking deal. One of my friends said she's hurt that I don't trust any of them and hold them in such low regard. I try to explain that it's nothing against anyone. I just don't like discussing home at work and vice. I. I. I. I th. I tha.time with my kids or my dog or my husband or friends and hobbies. Heck, I chose to live an hour outside of the city in a small town just to avoid work when I'm not there. I've apologized if any feelings were hurt, but my co-workers are now giving me the chill and won't talk to me unless it's directly about work. I honestly don't see the problem. I've never lied to them, I've never given them false information, I've never made up wild tales about my life.
Starting point is 00:46:25 I'm still the same person I was. Now they just know more about me than they did. Wow, what the? It feels like everyone's a little crazy. That's a weird story. I do think this co-worker's, I'm very curious how she announced all that's fucking weird. Morning meeting. Ding-ding-ding. So I've discovered some interesting things. Yeah, that's insane. She's a weirdo.
Starting point is 00:46:48 She's a weird behavior. That's legitimately to announce like, oh, I found out like all this stuff about like, yeah. It clearly must become like a meme around the office of like, nobody knows anything about her, she doesn't talk about stuff, which then, the, the, the, the, the, the, they, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, thi, that, that, that's, thi, thin, thi, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th.................. thin, thin, thin, like, thin, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's thin., which then they're like, they're hurt that it's like she has a life. It's like, but the joke was that you're an enigma that you don't talk about your home life. I don't know. Like, unless I was hanging out with her outside of work and we were friends outside of work, I wouldn't be offended.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yeah, someone didn't like, like, like we get along, but like, oh yeah, we just don't talk about. Yeah, Brennan, I don't like that guy. Yeah, we don't like that. I'm always asking for his address, he's never telling him. Yeah, what's your social security number, Brendan? Okay. No, come on, man, dude, he's holding out on it. Dude, what can say like,
Starting point is 00:47:45 oh, it's kind of unique behavior. That's kind of strange that she has this really hard line. But that's her boundary and she's at work and she's there to do work. She's not obligated to give this information. Yeah, like, I think, like, very obviously what the new co-worker did is wrong, but what's more interesting is, to me, like what I am more interested in is like, what would make a person so kind of protective of their,
Starting point is 00:48:14 you know, and like, you know, we can speculate, but like, because it's not like, I mean, it is a real person, but it's like a, it's not something we know, it's like a nebulous. Like, I want to, it's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's just, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, know, it's like a nebulous. Like I want to be a person. Yeah, like, I don't know, it's just, it's very fascinating to me, like that separation. She's a very Ron Swanson type person. Yeah. Like, well, she's not gonna share anything now. I don't want to talk about my life here at work. Sounds good.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Thanks. comments here, not the asshole. Melinda needs to mind her fucking business. Yeah. I would complain to HR about her harassing you. Oh I did and they're looking into it. If she did it at home, there isn't much they can do. But if she did any of her snooping on company computer or time, she's going to be at least repraunted if not written up. The asshole but you can't expect them to talk to you about anything else but work. Someone else responded, well I'm not as private as OP, I don't think I have to reveal my private life in order to talk about anything else but work. Examples. What the hell is going on with Roman on succession? I'm so sick of pumpkin spice things. Look, a stupid cat video. It's true. It's like the like the like the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their. It's like their. It's like their. It's like their. It's like their. It's like their. It's like, their. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, I'm, I'm th. I'm, I's. I's, I's. I's. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I.

I'm not can talk about. Yet it's messy because like, you know, you'd think ideally at work, the way that you move up and you do well at work is by doing your job and being focused on that.
Starting point is 00:49:35 I understand that with networking and like knowing people and all this stuff, it's like, it kind of requires you to bring personal elements into your job, no matter what the job is. Unless you're truly so good at your job that you can like transcend those like, that's what true. But if that doesn't, and that's such a rare thing to be so good at your job where you don't need to make like alliances for lack of a better word, like, you know, like partnerships, like, you know, like, like, to be well, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, that, that, that, that, that, like, that, that, like, that, like, like, that, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, be well liked and like, you know, kind of understood. It seems strange. I do think straight up not telling them that you're married, like is, is like, that's fascinating. I understand, I understand if it's just like, ah, you know, they're good, like my wife's good, like my kids are good, like, I don't really like, like nothing's going on, like, but to be like, I'm not even going to share, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, to, like, that, like I'm not even going to share that information is Extreme it's certainly I've never met any I've never met anyone like I like personally I can't imagine Having kids and not talking about them a lot right like it's like that's like that's kind of your you know, it's like when you go when you leave work and not talking about work like to me, that's like, you know, it's like, you know, that's like? you you that's like, that's like, th., th., that's like, th. th. th. th. that's like, that's like, th. th. that's like, that's like, th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th like, th like, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th. th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee theee the the thee the the the the of hard to do because, you know, it's like, you know, eight plus hours of my, that's straight up severance.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Yeah, she's, she is trying to do severance. Yeah, that's so true. She's trying to do that thing. There's an update. There's an update. I don't have eat breakfast, dude. I presented my side as detailed above. Melinda gave hers.
Starting point is 00:51:10 She basically said that she had been trying to get to know everyone. And she had been of having trouble getting to know me. So she found my Facebook in an effort to find something to talk about with me, and then she just informed. This was weirdo behavior. I, she's a weirdo. I'm sorry, Melinda's a weirdo. I asked, I asked my HR rep to pull up Facebook and to do a cursory search for my real name. There were several. Then I asked him to search for my married name
Starting point is 00:51:32 or the one I go by on Facebook, Ali Smith. There were enough for about six or seven scrolls on too many to count. I haven't touched my own page since I reported the incident. It was about 30 names from the top, but like I said, my profile pick is my dog, not me. So she would have had to look at each thumbnail photo or view each account. I do have an Instagram page that's on private, but I only have a few friends, mostly family members, and friended me. Naturally, I blocked her. HR gave her a reprimand for creating a negative work atmosphere. My rep wasn't sure why Melinda felt the need to blast
Starting point is 00:52:08 my info for everyone and he called BS on her for claiming it was innocent. So that's that. That's probably all that's going to come from it because my co-workers are now acting mostly back to normal. However, I took the advice from the sub and I'm making amends. They're all all. I'm gonna learn to open up, but not by much. But they know enough about me to know I'm not an automaton or anything. Okay, well that sounds fine. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. We solved it. Melinda, you weirdo?
Starting point is 00:52:42 Yeah, what? All right. Like if I did snooping like that, I would I would be I'd be embarrassed. So I'd be like I don't want anyone to know. Right. Yeah, like but like have I done that? Yes, would I be embarrassed and like I would not tell other people? No. Also the CIA needs to hire him. Yeah, yeah. All right. Here we go. Here's the the next. the the the the the the the the the the the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the next. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. ne. the ne. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the next story. So you won't work because you want to know what happens on Game of Thrones? Fine. So this happened in 2019 when the infamous last season of Game of Thrones came out. That was only 2019? That was 2019. It was like eight years ago. I know it's been forgotten because it sucked. Back then I was working a shitty customer service job and because I was a student at the time had to work late afternoon slash night shifts. The company being permanently understaffed
Starting point is 00:53:27 there were usually two people on these types of shifts. In this case yours truly and the person we will call shitty McShit who also worked mostly graveyard shifts. I can write an entire book of stories about shitty McShit that would showcase the reasoning behind his name, but I'll save them for later. The bottom line is this dude barely ever showed up to work, and when he did show up, he would call his friends from the company phones to keep the line busy or just spend all his time eating and watching movies. Besides refusing to work, this guy was also incredibly rude and entitled. This guy was also incredibly rude and entitled. What I know is he came from money but his parents made him work and he was not. He the the the the the the their. He. He. He. He. He was. He. He. He. He. He was, to. He, to, he. He, he, he, he, he, he, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he was, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he. He, he. He, he. He. He, he. He, he. He, he. He, he. He, he. He. He. He. He, he. He. He. He, he. He, he. He. He, he. He was, he was, he was, he was, to, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, toe. He was, he was not amused. He was 20-ish, if I remember correctly, but through tantrums like a three-year-old.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Now night shifts were usually quiet and both me and Shitty each minded our own business, but it wasn't the case that week. Some service was down somewhere and calls were flooding in, to the point where I barely had time to breathe between calls. At some point, I noticed Shitty's the phone, I's logged off and opened HBO to watch Game of Thrones season premiere. While hundreds of calls and emails keep coming in, I go over to him and asked to please do his damn job. And his response is, geez, chill. It won't take long.
Starting point is 00:54:35 I just really want to know what happens in this episode. I didn't have time to yell at this idiot, and even if I had, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, toed, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to. to. to. to. to. to to to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to, to, to, to, to, to. to, to, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to, to. to. to. to, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to th th to th th to to to th to to to to to to to to to to toe. toe. toe. What I did instead is I went back to my workstation and messaged him what happened throughout the course of the entire episode, scene by scene. On slack and email with our team leader, Ciced in. He slammed the keyboard and went back to taking calls. It made me feel better, but not good enough. I knew his university schedule wouldn't allow him to watch the episodes. So every the th th, I would religiously email and slack him a message containing all the spoilers titled, Game of Throne Summary, I hope this helps you concentrate at work.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Was it petty and childish? Yes. Was it delicious and beautiful? Also yes, that. Do I regret it? No. I don't understand why he couldn't just see the emails and not read the emails. So here's what the, here's what OPE could have done. The entire, the season finale like leaked. Do you guys remember that?
Starting point is 00:55:28 It like leaked? Oh yeah. Like, I want to say like months before people were like, like, like, Dinaris, a lot. And they, and they, and someone, I remember that happened. And someone, the finale and everyone was like, wow, this is really dumb. Like, to a T. Yes. It was terrible. I didn't watch.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Oh, dude. It was. I'm such a huge Game of Thrones fan. Season's one, two and three. I would say four as well are awesome. But then it starts to get pretty bad and by the last season season, it, it, it, it, it, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, thi, th, thin, thi, thi, to, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to, to, tho, tho, to, to, to, to, to, to, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, to, to, to, to, to, th....... th. th. th. thr. thr. I t. ttttttttth. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I didn't with the energy of season 8? It'd be fine. I would actually love that show. There's Netflix and fantasy shows that are the same caliber as Game of Throne Season 8 that I'm like, I love this show.
Starting point is 00:56:13 It's super fun. Right. But it just, it was such a downfall. But anyways. Not the asshole. What I don't get is this guy is this guy is this guy is this guy is this guy is this guy is this guy is this guy is the asshole. What I don't get is this guy is, this guy is, shitty mcitt is stupid because he should have just lied. Right.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Just lie. Dude, just lie. It's not hard. That's, I think, that's a big, frustrating thing in my life. Is I get upset when people do bad things, right? Like when people are lie or they're shitty or they do bad things, right? Like when people are lie or they're shitty or they do bad things, I get more mad when they are like stupid about it. I'm like, if you're gonna do a bad thing,
Starting point is 00:56:51 if you're gonna be shitty, do it well. Yeah, come on, man. Put in the effort. Be better. Build that lie universe out. Exactly. Like, you know, how did the guy, how did he not get not get not get not get not get not get not get not get not get the the they not get not get not get the they not get not get they not get they not get they not get they not get they not get they not get the they not get their they not get their their they not get their their their their their they're not their they're not they're not they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're their.. they're their... th... th.. the. theat... theat..... theat..... thea.. theat. the. the guy, how did he not get him fire like that first time? Because like, dude, I take a picture of him watching TV. Well, they're so understaffed that they probably can't afford to fire him. Like, they, or maybe, I don't know. He's not doing anything anyways.
Starting point is 00:57:16 Yeah, he's literally useless. We've got some comments here. This is why you shouldn't burn people who know how to hurt you. Jesus! Damn! Why would he read the spoilers if he didn't want to know what happened? I would just delete it. Someone else said, what was worse? You give it? What was worse? You giving him spoilers are the actual final season of Game of Thrones? Yeah, it was pretty bad. He's like, bran? So guys. As our final thing, this is completely, this is completely different type of thing. Very different. This is not a work. I mean, this is a guy, he's doing a job. Aren't we all?
Starting point is 00:57:55 So this is a story about a guy who's self-employed. What's about to happen? He's self-employed. I found this story right before we started filming this. I was on my phone and I came across this Reddit story and I was like, no way, we gotta read this. No way. It's just awesome. Okay. It's just an awesome story.
Starting point is 00:58:13 About a job. About a job. Our unpopular opinion. Sucking your own dick doesn't feel good. It's like sucking your own dick doesn't feel like getting your dick sucked. It feels like sucking dick. Wait, wait, wait, there's the tweet or there's like the thing. It's like, sucking your own dick doesn't feel like getting your dick sucked. It feels like sucking dick.
Starting point is 00:58:38 And like, and for some people, like, that's their thing. So a couple months ago I found out that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was that I was that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was that I was that I was that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was able that I was, that's their thing. And like, so a couple months ago. Oh, there's a story. So a couple of months ago, I found out that I was able to suck my own dick. And when I say suck my own dick, I don't mean simply licking the tip of my penis. I mean, full on deep throwing my entire car. Whoa, you're you're a pro. When I first found out about this, I was so excited, and I immediately began sucking my knob.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Though I realized, I wasn't really pleasurable at all, it felt more like I was sucking someone else's dick than somebody sucking my dick. Don't get me wrong, there was some pleasure, but it was completely overshadowed by the feeling of having a penis in my mouth. I wasn't able to focus on the sensation of being sucked off since all the focus was on having an entire fucking dick in my mouth. It was a surreal experience to feel all my cock faints and stuff in my mouth. It was a surreal experience to feel all my cockpains and stuff in my mouth, but it wasn't what I was looking for, you know?
Starting point is 00:59:41 We're a fucking. And no, it wasn't because my head game was trash. I actually became- It sounds like it's because the head game was trash. I actually became pretty good at dick sucking because of my special ability. So yeah. That's my secret captain. So yeah, sucking your own dick is nowhere near. So yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Sucking your own dick is nowhere near comparable to somebody else sucking you off. It just isn't as pleasurable as people make it out to be. Who's making it out? I've never heard anyone be like, dude, you gotta check it out. I think I'll just stick to jacking off instead. So this, I guess this was posted a couple years ago, but I just saw it today. Someone, there's some comments. Imagine being this insecure with your sexuality. This feels good, but oh no, I don't want to think of myself as gay.
Starting point is 01:00:33 O.P. responded, I didn't feel good, though. That's the point of the post. Don't get me wrong. There was some pleasure, but it was completely overshadowed by the feeling of having a penis in my mouth It felt good, but oh no, I can't get over how it threatens my tiny insecure masculinity And then he responded I just don't like the feeling of having dick in my mouth. Okay Okay, that's all he commented and he was gone. That's all he commented. And he disappeared I just I saw that title. I just that's all he commented on popular opinion. That's that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's all he's like I was like I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's liked. He's like. He's like. He's like. He's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was just just like. I was. I was. I was it once I saw the title. I was like, that's awesome. I love that that's an unpopular opinion. Like, guys, unpopular opinion? Sucking your own dick? I've never seen anyone be like, you have to try this on the internet.
Starting point is 01:01:14 And I've seen, I've seen people argue for everything on the internet. Yeah. You gotta at this. You gotta do it. Well, yeah. Other people's jobs suck. Yeah. Oh no. I'm very grateful that, I don't know. We don't have people who snoop like that. And I'm, you know, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:41 There's some messy situations here. Some jobs are very silly silly though, like people fart and that's nice. It's like every workplace is going to have drama because you spend like two-thirds of your life at work. Yeah. And so you know, and things happen. But it's like, I'm so glad that we're not fat. I'm so glad nobody eats four donuts. We all share the donuts equally. Yeah, yeah, that's cool
Starting point is 01:02:05 We look we work in a great place compared to all of those Oh compared to this. Oh my god. Well, thank you both for being here This is so fun. Thank you. Thanks for joining me. I know you have to get back to work. Was that a command? No, get back to work.
