0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:44.200

<v Speaker 3>if you realize I was recently hired by the company

0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 3>to make some changes and you're the branch manager of

0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:46.280
<v Speaker 3>the Northeastern division.

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.320
<v Speaker 4>Right, Yes, I am perfect.

0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:52.240
<v Speaker 3>Perfect. So here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna fly

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 3>in next week and you and I are gonna throw

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.560
<v Speaker 3>a quote solar eclips party for the staff.

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, you want to a solar eclipse party.

0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it's gonna be great. We're gonna have like glasses,

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 3>those fun ones, you know, and popcorn, and then we'll

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:09.840
<v Speaker 3>encourage everybody to go outside to see it. And then

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 3>once they're out there, we lock the doors and disabled

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 3>their key cards. I don't did you hear me?

0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? No, I did. I heard you?

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.079
<v Speaker 3>Great? Oh great, So you're down with the plan, because

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 3>here's the thing, Charles, we have to downsize.

0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:25.800
<v Speaker 4>Wait. Wait, you're firing me.

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, no, you you're one of the only ones we're.

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:31.639
<v Speaker 4>Keeping, one of the only ones.

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 3>Uh huh. Everyone else is gone. Oh my.

0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 4>Wait wait, I don't understand what that has anything to

0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.639
<v Speaker 4>do with the Eclipse party or whatever it is, passivity

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 4>or whatever we're talking about.

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 3>So that's just a way to get them out of

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 3>the building and then let them know that they no

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 3>longer have a job.

0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 4>You gotta be kidding.

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 3>I'm just terrible with confrontation.

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 4>But your hr you know, isn't that funny?

0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.360
<v Speaker 3>It's not always had a hard time with those to

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 3>face one on one, So I found this much simpler.

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 4>I can okay, I can understand. Conversation can be hard,

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 4>but that's your job. This is what you do, and.

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 3>It's so efficient when you just do everybody together. My

0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:15.679
<v Speaker 3>text message too. You know, they'll all get that notification

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 3>when they're outside tech.

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.080
<v Speaker 4>You can't do this by text, Are you kidding me?

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:22.480
<v Speaker 4>You need to have a conversation, an actual conversation, probably

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 4>face to face. Come on, these are people that I

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 4>work for. I care about some of these people.

0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 3>Oh, oh, don't worry, don't worry. I understand. You think

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.920
<v Speaker 3>it could come off as insensitive. Is We're gonna include

0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 3>sad face emoji at the end of the text, so

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 3>oh so they know that we feel bad.

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:41.720
<v Speaker 4>No, this is not like an emoji situation. Okay, if

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.480
<v Speaker 4>you're already gonna fly in, have a conversation you're flying into,

0:03:45.560 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 4>then text there, you're.

0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 3>Right, you're right, I'm flying into help set up the

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 3>eclipse party. It's really the perfect way to do it. Oh,

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 3>it's just so depressing to watch people individually leave with

0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 3>the boxes of stuff, you know, from their office. I'm

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 3>making myself sad just talking about it.

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 4>It's gonna make them sad when you do this. I

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 4>don't me doing it. It's us, you and me.

0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 3>We're a team.

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, no, no, no, we're not a team

0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 4>on this. This is something that you're doing and you're

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 4>doing badly. Oh, we're doing this together.

0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 3>We'll be at the window waving. No, don't see us.

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 4>I'm not in any window waving to anybody.

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you're right.

0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 3>They may not see you because the eclipse or they

0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 3>still have those glasses on. That's a good point.

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 4>No, that's not my point.

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 3>Maybe we can crack a window and you can just

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 3>yell out working with y'all.

0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 4>No, I'm not doing that.

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:35.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, here's the thing. If we don't lay them

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:37.640
<v Speaker 3>off now, we're gonna have to wait another eight years

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 3>till the next one and.

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 4>Wait another eight years. Wait, wait, wait, hold them, wait another.

0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:43.160
<v Speaker 4>You can get yourself. Are you trying to line this

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 4>up with a clutch?

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I only do my firings during eclipses.

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 4>That doesn't make sense around.

0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 3>The business community. Don't you see me coming go on vacation.

0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:53.239
<v Speaker 3>You don't want me around.

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 4>I don't understand your tone. You're so happy, you're just

0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 4>like pick at the fact that you're about to ruin

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 4>everyone's life.

0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.400
<v Speaker 3>I really thank you are failing to see the creativity

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.840
<v Speaker 3>in all of this. I mean, it's pretty brilliant idea.

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, firing people during an eclipse, that's creative to you.

0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 4>Does anyone know about this? I know about this?

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh Ty, Yeah, we're gonna let him go to but

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 3>during the next illuter eclipse because we're gonna shift his

0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 3>hours to night time.

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.280
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna let Tie? Are you letting Ty go? Are

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.640
<v Speaker 4>you making him worth the night shift? I don't understand

0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 4>what this plan is.

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he said it might confuse you, you know when

0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:33.880
<v Speaker 3>he emailed us to do this prank phone call on you. Wait, wait,

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 3>this is actually this is actually brought from the radio

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.400

<v Speaker 4>Oh thank god.

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 3>Wait, did you really think we were going to fire

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 3>people during the eclipse?

0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, said some crazy things before and so

0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:55.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it is a pretty good idea, though, right

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.480
<v Speaker 3>they literally won't see it coming, you know, because he's

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:00.200
