Speaker 3: prisd I am not technically persuading him to marry me.

91
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 3: I would say, technically you are, but if he does,

92
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 3: he'd be saving his family from ever having to go

93
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 3: back to Syria.

94
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,680

98
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:51,680

00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 3: Edit for everyone begging you know my nationality, I won't

100
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 3: reveal this. However, I will say that I am not Arab.

101
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: So what does that mean?

102
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Probably Sudanus cannsidered in the Middle East, Egypt.

103
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 2: What does Arab mean? Arab is speaks, Arabic speaks.

104
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 1: Arabic is from the I believe also like some Semitic

105
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: includes Arab, like that whole region like Jordan, Yemen, Syria.

106
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 2: That's all Arab, that whole, that whole ethnic group.

107
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 3: Or is it?

108
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, Arab? Yeah, I get a definition. Define.

109
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 3: Let's see Arab a member of a Semitic people originally

110
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 3: from the Arabian peninsula and neighboring territories inhabiting much of

111
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: the Middle East and North Africa.

112
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: What does Semitic mean Semitic is that region, so Israel, Yemen, Jordan, Libya, Lebanon.

113
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 3: It says Arab is an ethno linguistic category. So because

114
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 3: there's a language Arabic language yeh is Arab and ethnic group,

115
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 3: they can be categorized as a distinct ethnic group too.

116
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 3: So it's an ethnic group and a linguistic ethno group.

117
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 3: Who is an Arab and like, like I just like

118
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,560

119
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: nice Arab boy from like it almost seems like like

120
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: they had a whole different definition.

121
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like like Naima is basically African and Arab at

122
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: the same time.

123
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: It's Arab, right, not Arab. I believe it's Arab Arab.

124
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think it's Arabic. It's Arabic, Arabic, Arab

125
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: identify with each other Arab world. Okay, learning so much today,

126
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: I'm trying to.

127
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 3: Like, I want to know, I guess I want to

128
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 3: know what we want to know what countries are considered

00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: want to give your family a good life, Like I

160
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: would love to do that. Like I feel like like

161
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: we would make a good partnership and couple, you know,

162
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: and life together. I think that is totally fun. But

163
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: if you go and you're like, if you want a

164
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: million dollars, you must marry me.

165
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: If no, you may or may not go back home,

166
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 2: you know, like that is.

167
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: It's all not it's all in the delivery kind of

168
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: seems like how she's proposing it almost in at least

169
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: in the post, right.

170
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

171
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: I truly think if you sat here, like, hey, let's

172
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: go get some coffee, you sit down, You're like, there's

173
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: just how much money I have in my bank? Yeah,

174
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: let me pull up my Screenshut. No, like I think

175
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: if she sits sounded like look, I like I'm interested

176
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: in marying. Which also, like a lot of these conversations

177
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: in these regions, it's very common to have a conversation

178
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: like I want to get married. Like more it's more

179
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: like almost logistical in terms of like, hey, I want

180
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: to get married. We have these like things in common,

181
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: you know, like family whatever.

182
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 3: But also I like some of my friends have like

183
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: like one of my my friends is seek and has

184
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 3: talked about what like arranged marriage looks like, at least

185
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: in his religion and in his family, and like how

186
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 3: he describes it is it's more like his parents have

187
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 3: a rolodex of honeys, Like they're like, bro, this girl

188
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 3: hot as fuck, she's a doctor. Good family, What do

189
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 3: you guys want to go on a date. And so

190
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 3: it's more like your parents are like tender than like

191
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 3: like you must marry like and honestly like like, I

192
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 3: feel like my parents know me pretty well and if

193
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: they have if they've been thinking about who I'm going

194
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 3: to marry for the past like twenty years in developing

195
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: relationships with other families, like.

196
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: I'm kind of into it.

197
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: So like a lot of I think a lot of

198
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: Americans think like arranged marriage it's like the worst thing,

199
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: but in a lot of cases is actually not as

200
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: bad as it may. See my paint, it's honestly, I

201
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: would probably argue the best and most efficient way because

202
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: it's people who have done as long as the parents

203
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: have your best interest in her. Yeah, and you're basically

204
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: good because they are gonna you know, they know you

205
00:09:58,320 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: well and they're going to find people.

206
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 3: I can still be kind of though too.

207
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, this is this is more of the

208
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: And also I think like the South Southeast Asian community

209
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: is more especially nowadays, is more like, hey, you know,

210
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: here's a list of people. Check them out, go on

211
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: some dates, see if the vibe is right, like I think,

212
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: like basically Indian Matchmaker, if you've seen on Netflix, which

213
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: is like one of my favorite shows, it's great. I'm

214
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: a total aprona for all my Indian Matchmaker watchers.

215
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 3: Please's listening to that show.

216
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, all my Indian Matchmakers homies. If we get

217
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,599
Speaker 1: if we get three thousand comments, I will launch a

218
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,359
Speaker 1: Indian Matchmaker's review podcast.

219
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 2: We'll do a episode reviewing it's great. It's great. But okay,

220
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: so back back to the point.

221
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: I do not think it's an a hole move as

222
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: long as op kind of has that right delivery.

223
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but based on this post, I do not think

224
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 3: is going about right delivery.

225
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, based on that post.

226
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 3: But uh, we're hoping that your uh marriage proposal goes

227
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 3: over well.

228
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: And hey, propose what you guys thought in the comments. Man,

229
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: maybe we're totally off base, you know what I mean?

230
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: Maybe we don't know what we're talking about.

231
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 3: Also, if you've had any experience with arranged marriages, please

232
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 3: we would definitely share your personal stories.

233
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, please, do. We might just put them on the

234
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 2: show that we might.

235
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: Okay, time, I feel terminally ill, but my a whole

236
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: boss illegally forced me to work.

237
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: So I got revenged and did something completely unexpected. Expect

238
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 2: the unexpected from op.

239
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: When I was in my early twenties, I worked at

240
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: a supermarket. I should note that I was a pretty

241
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: reliable employee. I was never late. In fact, I often

242
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: got in early and rarely ever.

243
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 2: Called in sick. Sounds like an excellent employee, great employees,

244
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 2: you want you're hired? Yeah, come work for us? Yeah seriously.

245
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 2: At the time this happened, I had not called in

246
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 2: sick for nine months, nine long time. That's a whole

247
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 2: lass baby, the whole.

248
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: Ass baby baby, human baby, Well, pregnancy, I guess the

249
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: baby can be forever.

250
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: Oh what a bear.

251
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think babies stop being babies.

252
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,959
Speaker 1: At two I had been up all night swinging between

253
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: burning hot and freezing cold, so I was obviously feverish.

254
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that sounds feverish to me. Ye pretty cuar, no, doctor,

255
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 2: but you are sick.

256
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: You are sick. And I had been throwing up at

257
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: both ends. We shall say, oh, no, that is a

258
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: doesn't paint a pretty picture. No, it doesn't unless you

259
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: want to paint in brown, m and green the whole

260
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: color section. At one point, at about two am, I

261
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: was on the toilet, head in sync, utterly miserable. Now

262
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: I must have passed out because the next thing I knew,

263
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: I was lifting my head off the sink and it

264
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: was seven am. She went from two am to seven am.

265
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 1: Oh my god, there's a lot of throwing at both ends.

266
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 1: Damn did you can't do anything in this state?

267
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: Now?

268
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: I was due at work at twelve that day, but

269
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: obviously that was not going on. There's no way, not

270
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: a chance. So I called the manager. Let's call this manager, Steve.

271
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: H Steve. I hate Steve kidding we love these Steve, Yeah, no,

00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: double down, always double down. There's like like like people

274
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: are getting mad at us for ragging on the UK,

275
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 2: like making fun of British people, and they're like, why

Speaker 1: Like because they I gave they asked for they asked

278
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: a question, I gave them an answer. So back to

279
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: our manager, Steve. Steve was known for being a real

280
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: a hole.

281
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 2: Stop yeah, breathing. Uh.

282
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: He never believed anyone who called in sick except his

283
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: best buds usually other managers.

284
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 2: Never us slowly plebeian staff members.

285
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 4: Why don't you got respect for the staff, Steve.

286
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 2: Have some respect from the staff. Respect on a staff.

287
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, boys, Steve often called in sick himself.

288
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: This hypocritical bastard. Steve is an ais Yeah, gaping anus

289
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: gaping just like the everything bagel. And a lot of

290
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: the time we knew it was because he was hungover

291
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: and not actually sick.

292
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

293
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 4: So an alcoholic hypocrisi, just.

294
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 2: Adding to the list, Steve.

295
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: So this was the conversation from the phone call as follows.

296
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: Let's here John Me, Hey Steve, Sorry, I can't come in.

297
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: I'm sick, Steve with what me?

298
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 2: I don't know.

299
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: It might be the flu. I've been up all night

300
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: sick and I have a really bad fever. Steve, dup

301
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: be stupid.

302
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: If you had the flu, you'd be completely knocked out.

303
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 2: I need you come in or you're fired.

304
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 5: Me.

305
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 2: I can't.

306
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: I just told you I can't stop vomiting and I

307
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: passed out, Steve growling angrily. Yeah, I believe you either

308
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: come in or bring a doctor's note, or you're fired.

00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 2: She is a.

310
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: Terrible bossud like the absolute worst, and honestly, Sam, I'm

311
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: so glad we could quit our jobs to start.

312
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: This podcast and no more terrible bosses. Exactly.

313
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: In the UK, you're legally allowed to self certify for

314
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: five days, so that means you're allowed to basically report

315
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: and sick without a doction note everything, which is.

316
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: Good pretty.

317
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 4: Thank you, Harry Poulter.

318
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 2: Ray you're a wizardy OWI you have healthcare.

319
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: Now. This means you can tell your employee are sick

320
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: and you don't need a doctor's note. And if you're

321
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: sick for more than five days then you do need

322
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: a note. It's also illegal to demand a doctor's note

323
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: during the self certified period of five days.

324
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 2: Oh, let's lock Steve up. Steve's going to jail.

325
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 4: You're committing a legal activity, Steve, and we're not liking it.

326
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: No, we're not Russia. Now I knew this, but I

327
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: was terrified. This was during the recession and I couldn't

328
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: afford to lose my job.

329
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: So during the recession, you mean right now a financial doom?

330
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 2: Not good?

331
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: So I got myself dressed. I almost passed out trying

332
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: to do so, and then I trudged over to the

333
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: doctor's office, some twenty five minute walk away, and she walked, God,

334
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: cars in the UK, that's crazy, say again, they don't

335
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: have cars in the UK.

336
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.

337
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 3: Actually only take the cab trully.

338
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 2: Yeah that's right. Ain't got no horses or broomsticks. So God,

339
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 2: yeah we can telepole.

340
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: Can't just stick a twig between my legs and just

341
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: go here and fro now. I ended up sitting in

342
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: the doctor's office for a little over an hour, which

343
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: for a walk in was actually pretty good. I get

344
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: in to see the doctor and she is fear you

345
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: sent me for coming in, Like, how dare you be

346
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: sick and coming for help?

347
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 2: Tell your organs to stop now. Slight side note.

348
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: When I was in high school, we had a drumline

349
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 1: instructor who's like favorite catchphrases. His catchphrases were like incorrect

350
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: or that's not good enough. So we used to have

351
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: a joke where if you were sick, that's his catchphrase.

352
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 1: That was his catchphrase. He actually was amazing, but he

353
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: just didn't tolerate any any mediocrity, So we would we

354
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 1: would have a joke where we're basically like, anytime someone's sick,

355
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: you would tell your body incorrect.

356
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 2: And you was force your telling me to start chilling

357
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 2: the virus inside. Yeah, oh good time. Only he was

358
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 2: around for Corona. You know we could use you, John Vera,

359
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: come on, come back.

360
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: The doctor said, you're not supposed to come to the

361
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: doctors when you have the cold of the flu, And

362
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: of course I knew I should be able to self certify.

363
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 2: She told me that, saying that I shouldn't be here

364
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 2: because basically, like the doctors worried about getting everyone else sick.

365
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 4: Exactly, this is what I think is going on here too.

366
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:06,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, thank you for confirming. We really needed that.

367
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 2: We figured it out.

368
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: I then explained what happened with Steve and how he

369
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 1: had threatened to fire me over this, and I couldn't

370
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: afford to lose my job because I was struggling as

371
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: it is. My doctor turned her anger towards my manager, Steve.

372
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 2: Hell, yeah, doctor's on our side. Yes, that's right. You

373
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 2: pissed off the wrong doctor today, Steve. Yeah, doctor hate him.

374
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 2: Today's prescription.

375
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: You're fire, She asked, if I got sick pay from

376
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: the company, to which I responded, yes, Oh he wants

377
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: a sick note, does he? The doctor says, okay, I'll

378
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: give him a sick note.

379
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: Is getting by sea now?

380
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: My manager wanted a note confirming I was sick, but

381
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: instead my doctor wrote something along the lines of this.

382
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 2: Op has come to.

383
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:03,959
Speaker 1: The surgery because Steve has insisted she come in in

384
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 1: spite of the fact that it is illegal and all

385
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: employees are allowed to self certify, due to being forced

386
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: to make this unnecessarily unnecessary and highly dangerous trip when

387
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 1: the patient is ill, has a fever of thirty nine

388
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: degrees celsius, and almost passed out in the waiting room.

389
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: Thirty nine degrees is like like a hundred Yes, that

390
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 2: is bad, brot.

391
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: I am signing my name, doctor's name off for two

392
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: full weeks to recover. Had Op been allowed to self certify,

393
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: as is the law, they might have only needed a

394
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: few days, but due to straining themselves, they now require

395
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: full two weeks to recover. They are not to be

396
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: promoted to work until two weeks from now.

397
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 5: Whoo a man, dude, this doctor is the goat greatest

398
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 5: of all time.

399
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: The doctor said she would have signed me off longer,

400
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: but this was the longest she could do without requiring

401
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: further evidence. So basically, instead of just being off for

402
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: a few days, I was now signed off for.

403
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 2: A full two weeks, which I'd be paid for. Oh yeah,

404
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: get that money, get that money.

405
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 6: Take that Steve y. Yeah, you mess with the wrong

406
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 6: sick person.

407
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 2: Steve, that's right, you asshole. Showed me your asshole. Let's

408
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 2: put a thermometer in that rectum. God damn temperature off

409
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 2: the charts, asshole. Now.

410
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: I went to my place of work, at which point

411
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: one of the duty managers saw me and ask what

412
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: the heck I was doing there?

413
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 2: Go home?

414
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: I was obviously very unwell. I explained what happened, and

415
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: they agreed to help me go downstairs to Steve's office.

416
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 2: Infect Steve with the flu. That's right. So then we

417
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: walk inside bomb bomb bo I got you were the word.

418
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: So walked in the office and I handed Steve the note,

419
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 2: the note. Yeah, not the banknote, but a sick note.

420
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 2: Sick note. I'm rich, bitch.

421
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: He looks worried and tried to say, oh, I wasn't

422
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: being serious about firing you. Well, g when you angrily

423
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: growled it down. The phone sounded like a save. Yes Steve, Yes, Steve.

424
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 5: Now you're going back on your word, you little scaredy

425
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 5: scary cat, little food.

426
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Now, the duty manager declared that they were

427
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: going to drive me home. It was clear Steve wanted

428
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 1: to argue, but had the sense to know that he shouldn't.

429
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 2: Losing battle. Steve.

430
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: That's right, Steve, shut your trap, Shut your fucking trap.

431
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, we all shove. Your name is Steve.

432
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 3: Defend yourself in the comments by saying I am Steve

433
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: and I'm not an asshole.

434
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 2: That's right. I will.

435
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: I will respond to every single Steve in these comments,

436
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: and yes, if you're asking, I will be doubling down.

437
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 1: I still hate you, but I want to argue with

438
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: you about why I hate you, So please comment below.

439
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 2: John lives for the hate. I live for the hate.

440
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: After the duty manager drove me home, he made sure

441
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 1: they made sure I was okay, and then went back

442
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: to work, where they informed our union rep.

443
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 2: Of what happened. Oh no, laying down the wall, Steve

444
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 2: had a disciplinary hearing get fucked. Ye, that's light. Steve's

445
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: going down.

446
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 4: Winter becomes the discipline.

447
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: That's right, the principals in office, and you're not getting

448
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 1: a pink slip this time, Steve.

449
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 2: The only thing you're getting his pink eye.

450
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: That's just rubbing your finger all over in there, taking

451
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: your temperature because now you're sick because ope and face.

452
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 2: I tried to keep it going. I was like, what

453
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 2: loose thread to bullet pull it all?

454
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: So at Steve's disciplinary hearing, he was given a severe

455
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: reprimand and a warning. Amazing a little light for our

456
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: boy Steve. He really should be sentenced to death. But

457
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: that's just one man's opinion. Every Steve must die, that's correct.

458
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: Steve tried to argue that he never said I'd be fired,

459
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: and I was lying and just decided to go to

460
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: the doctor my own free will. Gee really, but the

461
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: duty manager said that they heard him admit to it

462
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: when he said to me that he really didn't.

463
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 2: Now.

464
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 1: I felt better after a few days, and I enjoyed

465
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: my two weeks off fully paid.

466
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: Mind you a cal Steve tating on you, Steve, take

467
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 2: these dollars in the face.

468
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: Now, Steve was forced to work overtime because we were

469
00:23:59,080 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: short staff.

470
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 2: In your face.

471
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 1: So thanks to the doctor's note. Instead of being off

472
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: for a few days, I ended up getting a nice

473
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: two week paid vacation and Steve was given a final warning,

474
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 1: all because he insisted I get a stupid, silly doctor's note.

475
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 2: That's what you fucking get. See.

476
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 5: Yes, Steve, how do you stop trying to make people's

477
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 5: lives hard and disrespect the fact that maybe they.

478
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 4: Were shitting and puking at the same time all night. Yeah,

479
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 4: maybe that's not the best to have around it.

480
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 2: It's not great. Maybe change your name.

481
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, just dig a grave, get in it and never

482
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: come back. That's all we're asking. It's a very st

483
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: of every Steve. It's very simple. So boys, what do

484
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: we think? Is uh z Op in the wrong hair?

485
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 2: Did she? Did she just abuse the system?

486
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 3: No?

487
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 2: Or I mean the doctor kind of forced it on

488
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 2: her really, but it was a good thing.

489
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

490
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 2: I think I think she needed to teach Steve a lesson.

491
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 5: I think Steve got what he deserved. Just because you're

492
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 5: in a management position doesn't mean you have the.

493
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 2: Right to be in asshole exactly, Steve.

494
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Steve, we should, we should, We should treat people

495
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: and literally legally legally required to get get five days

496
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 1: off above the Law.

497
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I think that's a podcast.
