Speaker 2: Well, you know, it all started, like get always does,

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 2: trying to impress a girl. On the first date, I

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 2: told her I was the regional director of my company. Uh,

8
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: you know, I was nervous and I wanted to sound successful,

00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: but I'm I'm actually just the entry level analyst and.

10
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,040

11
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 3: Well?

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,320

00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: I know it was a real time.

27
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 3: I mean, you better come up with a plan for

28
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 3: the regional divisions. Well presented.

29
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: Analyst, but if you really want my opinion, And then

30
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: he would about this, get a promotion, and then she

31
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: really falls for you. Oh what I would do is,

32
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: as you're sitting at dinner and then he asks you,

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: I would get up and take off running. Open the

34
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: front door. Don't even close the front door, open it

35
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: and just run so they can see you running away

36
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: in the right.

37
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: Just either take off running or pull off the power book.

38
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: Actually our points not a bad idea, But I do

39
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: I do, I do agree. I think he already knows

00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,800

43
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: get into the funniest excuses to get out of work.

44
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: Have you heard one or you used one?

45
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 3: I've heard one.

46
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: What did you hear?

47
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 3: I heard? So this girl she's left for lunch and

48
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 3: she never came back, and we're trying to figure out

49
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 3: where she went. So she called back later on. She

50
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: said that she swallowed her tongue ring and she had

51
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 3: Glorian for emergency surgery, and she never came up to tour.

52
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: So she got fired and she came She got hired

53
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 3: back a week later because this supervisor was her mom.

54
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 1: Her mom fired her. You have to get surgery.

55
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: Oh, she was just kidding. She just didn't. She made

56
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: that up.

57
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: I was thinking that she never came back to work,

58
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: that surgery didn't go well, but she hired back, survived.

Speaker 3: swallowed her tongue ring. She never came back to work.

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: And we're like, are you okay? Where are you at?

62
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 3: She's like, oh, well, I gotta go because I'm going

63
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: in right now.

64
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: So she gets fired, her mom fires her, and her

65
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: mom hires her back.

66
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 3: Yes, a week later, Okay, back in there.

67
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: Well, thanks Linda, thanks for sharing that story with us.

68
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 3: Oh you're welcome.

69
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: One person said that their wife said he had to

70
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: come home immediately. Everyone was concerned. Then later he walked

71
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: back into work and said his wife was on the

72
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: radio and one five hundred bucks because she was able

73
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: to convince him to leave work immediately without telling him.

74
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: It was the radio. We gotta do that. I just

75
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: teed you to leave to do it right now. It's

76
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: all that's a J. J ridgbody was John J Ridgelster.

77
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: We used to do those all the time. The guy

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: called out because he got lost in the woods all weekend.

79
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: He didn't get back until like four am the next morning.

80
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: Somebody called into word said their friend's dog died and

81
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: she wasn't She wasn't going to come for her. She

82
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: just needed time to herself to process the loss. Your

83
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: friends thought they worked from home but had to leave

84
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: an online meeting because a squirrel fell down their chimney

85
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: and was in their house. Their goldfish was drowning, and

86
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: then they walked out before the manager could process the

87
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: physics of that statement, so they left. So these are

88
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: the funniest excuses to get out of work. They need

89
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: to leave work early because their car was low on gas.

90
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: I can see that being an excuse because you probably

91
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: I got to be somewhere at a certain time. Oh I

92
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: got to stop and get gas early. So eight seven

93
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: seven nine three seven one four seven the funny excuse

94
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: to get out of work. Their kid got a pee

95
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: stuck up their nose. Their parents got out of their cage.

96
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: It was chasing their wife around the house. Gosh, they

97
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: needed to live because their cat was having an existential crisis.

98
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: It wouldn't stop me owing. They couldn't come to work

99
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: because the reflection looked judgy that morning, and they needed

100
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: a mental health day to repair the relationship with the mirror. Hey,

101
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: you know what, I kind of get it.

102
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 3: That's the whole thing.

103
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: They needed to leave because their dog locked their son

104
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:20,799
Speaker 1: out of the house.

105
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 2: I feel like that's valid, that's legit.

106
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't say that they're fake. They were just

107
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: the funny excuses you had to leave work, and so

108
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: far those are all real, but they were just really funny.

109
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: If you've got one to add the list, call us

110
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,640
