So the customers, you know, like with 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.800 the employees. So like most of the time, like I 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:11.319 would be the good cop and he would be like 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.880 bad cop, Like he'll always like lay down his foot. Yeah. 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:16.800 But me, they'll come back to me and be like 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:20.079 literally like I just need a break. Yeah, Like my 0:13:20.679 --> 0:13:24.040 cousin name is Cashes. If you're listening, hello, They'll be like, 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:26.880 I don't know what's going on with Cash today, Like 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.520 he's just being so rude to me. And I'll be like, 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.520 I don't know, you know what, I'll talk to him, 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:34.800 but you know, just stick to your job, and you know, 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:35.960 I'll go ahead and talk to him. 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.520 Did you guys ever flip it and you were bad cops? 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:40.160 Very rarely? 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:42.319 If I was, I'd be like, I don't want to 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:43.240 be bad cop anymore. 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.439 You know, he loves it. He likes it. 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:46.840 He like I want to be good. 0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:50.440 He loves he loves being a bad cop because like 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:53.240 for him, with both of us, it works. And then 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:56.080 also it was like also like my other friend Abby, 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.760 like we all like flip flopped, but most of the 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:05.160 time when we was on a shift together, like we 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.800 are still work. I'm just a person. I'd like to 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:09.360 come in and do my work. And then the rest 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:11.000 of it, I can kind of like chill, yeah, get 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:13.920 it done. So like when it's days like that, we'll 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:15.960 all kind of like be toward the back when like 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:17.760 all of our work is done and like have like 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:21.160 all the rest of the employees like up toward the front. 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.960 And then they'll like, let's just say, somebody asks for 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:26.040 a manager. We'll be like you want to take it. 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:29.320 We're like pupping me, like you want to take it? 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:31.479 Rock paper says this, I don't feel like it today, 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:33.920 and then cash is to go back up there. He'd 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:34.480 be like, I was like. 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.360 It, who's asking for a manager at Starbucks? 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:39.800 Like there's a lot of people. You mess up. You 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:41.640 mess up on a hot coffee. 0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:45.240 This is not hot enough to speak to the manager. 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:50.200 You'll be surprised. There's been multiple times where like I accidentally, 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.520 like because the coffee is supposed to run on the timer, 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:56.320 So there's been multiple times like I'll like accidentally like 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:59.280 not set the timer and the coffee has been sitting 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.720 there like most of the day, and then like somebody 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:04.680 get the coffee and be like it's old, and I'm 0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:06.080 like I could have swear I just made that. 0:15:07.440 --> 0:15:09.800 I think you're wrong. I think it's I think you're. 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:12.240 I'll come back to the coffee. I'm like the time 0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:15.840 it was not said like they've been drinking a nasty coffee. 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:18.240 So I'm like, it's probably a good thing I left, 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:22.440 probably giving people like food poisoning on accident. 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:24.960 But you're you were a good cop, so yeah, I was. 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:26.480 I was a good I was the good cops. 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:28.280 When you first said a good cup back cup, I 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.240 imagine you're doing it with the customers and be like, hey, 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:31.840 can I get like a vent cold room and be like, 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:34.920 I don't know, can you look? 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.320 Most of my customers love me. Actually, the customers love 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.440 cash is a lot. He was like amazing towards the customers. 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:45.960 It's like he was mean to the employees but really 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.480 nice the customer. It kind of depends on which customer 0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:51.240 comes up right, because like he's like you know he 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:54.120 when it's like a Karen and they come up, he 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.440 gives like the I don't care attitude. 0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.000 Yeah you got to give them what they're giving. 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.960 You, so like he it makes them more mad when 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:04.240 he gives that attitude and he's like I really don't care, 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:06.600 and he's like I don't get paid, like he was 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:08.360 only there most of the time, kind of just for 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:11.080 like the free stuff. Yeah, because he was like, I 0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.160 really don't need the job. I just like I'm only 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.600 here like twice a week. So he was like, I'm 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:16.520 just here for the freestyle. 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:17.800 I'm not going to get riled up. 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:21.360 Yeah. Plus like our manager like loved us, so like 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:23.960 he was like, I'm not going to get fired anyway. 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:25.480 So I was like, hey, you know what, live your 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:28.080 best life. Yeah, right, live your best life. 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:29.800 That's the way to handle a Karen is not. 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.400 I was just sending back on you know, the little 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:34.600 donuts I think, so there. 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:44.160 Just cake pops all day. Okay, So that was the 0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:49.200 last job. What about what about worst job? What's the 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:50.400 worst job you've ever had? 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.520 Worst job? I would probably have to say when I 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:58.440 worked at a corporate job. And mind you, it was 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:04.119 only for like maybe like two weeks, but it was okay. 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.840 But I also hated it, like I had to like 0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:11.200 answer the phone and like I'm not the best at 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:15.000 like hearing what I hearing what somebody tells me on 0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:16.720 the phone and like trying to type it out the 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:19.920 same time, Like it's too much pressure for me. So 0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:23.960 like I would go so slow like that I have 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:24.760 to keep repeating it. 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:28.119 Like in customer service, Okay. 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:30.960 My name is Billy Bob Joe. 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.240 You're like okay, Jilly Bob And. 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:35.240 I'm like, how do you spell that?

So then like my 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:49.399 managers will put me to the back and be like 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:52.200 the mark you have to pick it up, like it's 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.040 been like a week and a half and I'm like, dude, 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:56.840 I don't know how to do this, Like I'm this 0:17:56.920 --> 0:18:00.680 is literally my second week out here, like let melimate. 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:02.520 All the other people are like caught up. 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:03.120 Okay. 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.840 So like at the end, did I get fired from that? 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.000 I got fired from that one? I got fired from 0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:10.240 now because I was going to tight and I was 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.480 like it's not going to work out, and I was 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:18.120 like I understand.

Like it wasn't like next week, it was 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:02.960 like a couple months later. 0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:07.480 But for the best and then So that was the 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:09.200 worst job. What was your best job? 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:11.600 My best job probably the movie theater. 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:14.320 Yeah, yeah, what did you do with the movie theater? 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:20.240 Literally nothing, because it's like so chill and plus like 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:22.720 all the people that I worked with, it was all 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.760 like really fun. So like let's just say ushering was 0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.320 like when you go around to like the movie theaters 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:31.200 and clean them up. That was probably the best position 0:19:31.280 --> 0:19:34.920 because like nobody bothers you. You're kind of like off 0:19:34.960 --> 0:19:38.280 by yourself. You know, you can make a little click 0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:40.760
