1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: This is the Fits In with Kate Richie podcast. This

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: is another discussion to be had. And I don't have

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: a dog, but you guys do, and then.

4
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 2: We're not together and I have our separate dogs.

5
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 3: So we tried to have a dog for ages and

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 3: it just could didn't work. And then Kate gave birth

7
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 3: to a beautiful little Annie.

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: How's any going? And he understanding the difference between pet

9
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 1: food and your underpants?

10
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 2: Well, I mean there's a fine line, is there?

11
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 3: There are dogs. I went to a mate's house the

12
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 3: other day and I said, ah, it looks like your

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 3: dogs had a bit of a mishap there, a bit

14
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 3: of a vomit. There's nothing worse watching a dog then

15
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 3: run out into the backyard and they eat it.

16
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: Don't let's move on from that anyway. Argument in the

17
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: workplace as it has been suggested that pet owners want

18
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: the same rights as parents when it comes today's off work.

19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: So if you have a maternity leave opporternity leave, they

20
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: will peternity leaves oh for their fur babies. Yes so,

21
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: and this would also say that if a pet was

22
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: to pass away, that you could have a level of

23
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: mourning to take off from workers. Well, do have that already. Well,

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: it depends which business you're in, But I don't think

25
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: it's sort of recognized as so much a day to

26
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: take off. You might take emotional leave, but I don't

27
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: think this kind of pet died day.

28
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 2: Off necessarily for the pet. And kind of does it

29
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: that include all pets?

30
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: Here's the wonderful.

31
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: Is it for the dog that you've had for for

32
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 2: fifteen years and it's grown up with the children, or

33
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 2: is it.

34
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 3: Your guinea as a Lottel's See, it's still the greatest cat.

35
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 3: And I don't think I told you this, but a

36
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 3: mate at Mitsubishi tell me this one. But just and

37
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 3: your name, Richie. You could probably check in the paper

38
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 3: every day in the obituary before you go into work.

39
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: Every day. He used to get the paper, check the obituary,

40
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: and if there was a surname in there with his,

41
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: the same surname as his take the day off, he'd

42
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 3: ring the boss and go, that was my uncle.

43
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: We got seven hundred uncles this year.

44
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and how many pets can you have? There's only

45
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: so many times your cat's going to.

46
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: Because you can't argue, Like if the boss calls you

47
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: into work and says why weren't you there? And you go,

48
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: my pet died and they go, what was the dog's name?

49
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: Oh?

50
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: No, it it was a hermit crab that I had

Speaker 1: called Steve. I had it for three months and unfortunately,

52
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,720
