WEBVTT - HIGHLIGHT- Work Life Balance

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Jay Sean and Lil Wayne this morning on Kiss FM.

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I think Tuesday is a good day to address this

0:00:06.800 --> 0:00:12.799
<v Speaker 1>work life balance. It's almost become cliche. How's your work

0:00:12.840 --> 0:00:19.160
<v Speaker 1>life balance? Oh, I'm achieving work life balance? But are

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:22.200
<v Speaker 1>you not? Really? I mean, I don't know that we

0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:25.560
<v Speaker 1>have work life balance. I think that we have. We're

0:00:25.600 --> 0:00:28.600
<v Speaker 1>better at sort of like saying we have boundaries, and

0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that it's more accepted now. I remember, like

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 1>years ago, if you weren't on your phone and available

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.080
<v Speaker 1>at all times, people look down on you. Now they

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.839
<v Speaker 1>actually kind of appreciate it when you say I'm put

0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:43.080
<v Speaker 1>my phone down. But are you really achieving work life balance?

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you have a couple of jobs here, so

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>does it ever really slowed down? I mean, Biataka be

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:50.199
<v Speaker 1>asking you something all the time, right, or a program.

0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Director anybody for that matter, Like I have to answer

0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.360
<v Speaker 2>my phone if JoJo's calling me, or anybody or any

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 2>of the jocks at all times.

0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>And Tony, do you think you have good work life balance?

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 3>No, because the problem is I don't know. I can't

0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:06.039
<v Speaker 3>not do something. So like I took on the book,

0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:08.080
<v Speaker 3>which is like a huge project that kept me so

0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 3>busy for like two and a half years. On top

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:12.400
<v Speaker 3>of what I do.

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>We kind of like don't know what tomorrow will bring.

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:17.920
<v Speaker 1>You think of the pandemic. It's like that was so weird.

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>We don't know what tomorrow will bring. And so there's

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>two schools of thought. One is like you've got to

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:24.680
<v Speaker 1>just like make hay while you can, and the other

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>is or make life while you can. And it's hard

0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:34.320
<v Speaker 1>to balancely intersect those two ideals, I think. But like,

0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 1>for example, Belinda is here and Belinda works in my office.

0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 1>So Belinda, I'm just gonna announce right now that my

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 1>phone is dead from Friday like noon till Sunday night. Okay,

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 1>that's my work life balance. But the problem is will

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I actually do it? No, I'm gonna try, but will

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I actually do it? I mean, that's the thing you say,

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden you break your own rule. Right,

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.520
<v Speaker 1>And so many young Americans today are children of immigrants,

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and they say, you feel some of them feel pressure

0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>to succeed because of the sacrifices their parents make.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:17.400
<v Speaker 2>I can see that. Yeah, I feel that way.

0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>So where are you with work life balance? There's no

0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:24.440
<v Speaker 1>conclusion to this. I just wanted to bring that.

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh my gosh, Like if you had to rate your

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 3>work life balance on a scale of like zero percent

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 3>is you have horrible work life balance, and one hundred

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 3>percent is you have great work life balance, where would

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 3>you rate yourself?

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Ciny I would say, I'm like a eighty percent.

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Wait, what does that mean? I know I gave the scale, but.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Now I'm confused. I think she's at eighty percent.

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh, good balance.

0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:55.079
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm okay. I you know, I try to

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>get all my work done as far as like everything

0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>that I need to do for all my other jobs

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 2>here at Kiss's done done before I leave the station,

0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 2>so that I'm not at home on my laptop doing

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 2>that work, you know, and then if anything comes through

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:10.120
<v Speaker 2>where I have to like answer the phone for a

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 2>phone call, it's just like a phone a quick phone

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 2>call or a text. It's not actually me on the

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:16.320
<v Speaker 2>couch or me at the dinner table on the laptop.

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>And Mark, Yeah, I sent you this topic right, yes,

0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>this year, said at three o'clock this morning.

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 2>You sent a topic about work life balance at three

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.079
<v Speaker 2>o'clock in the morning.

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because clearly I need to work on it. Jikes,

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Lucky you guys didn't get this at three in the

0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 1>morning in the back room. That's ironic, trying to break

0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 1>in slowly, I mean work in progress. My good news

0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 1>is Mark responded at four, so everybody needs to focus

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 1>on this. That's why I brought it up. That's a conclusion.

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh.
