Re 243 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: explained the same thing immediately afterwards, and we tried to 244 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: help her and help explain to mother in law. He 245 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 1: was professional, but she seemed a bit uncomfortable as time 246 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: went on, and mother in law kept low key, trying 247 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: to make the decisions for us. Okay, this is that's 248 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a little bit difficult of a situation 249 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: if she's not hearing it. Yeah, yeah, I think it's 250 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: it's less on her this time because she's probably like like, 251 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: she's probably not hearing it and was like, oh, what 252 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: if you did this? 253 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 3: And I'm like, well, we already talked about that, right. 254 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 2: Sounds like there might be some tension here that we're 255 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 2: not really aware of. You know, clearly they have a 256 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: good relationship, it seems, yeah, but there might be some tension. 257 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that.

But I think a 361 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: lot of these little things that she's bringing up seemed 362 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: to be more in line with her being. 363 00:15:59,000 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: Hard of hearing. 364 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 365 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 3: I don't know. Some of it is hard being a. 366 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: Title, and some of it's just being heard, which is like, yeah, 367 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: give her some slack and some stuff. I know. 368 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe that's just me though. 369 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: I want something. I want like something to happen.

She did say most people do a vodka, 375 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: a whiskey, et cetera, but didn't suggest anything specifically because 376 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: it isn't her specialty and it's our choice Beyonce and 377 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: I and she had to repeat So I think this 378 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: is Jenny saying this. And she had to repeat this 379 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: several times, explaining there was plenty of time for us 380 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: to discuss it, and she tried to move along to 381 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: the next item, but mother in law kept pressing. M 382 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: dan Digital says mother in law needs to insert her 383 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: hearing aid, not herself. Now, I think this is leaning 384 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: into she's inserting her like back right, yeah, Like before 385 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, it's hearing ad, but I think 386 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: this is yeah backin. 387 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, And she just shouldn't be a part of this. 388 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe they should just stop it fighting. 389 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 2: That's the thing I get inviting to the dress shopping, 390 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 2: Like that's really nice having family, I imagine, But like 391 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: the drinks and the cake tasting. 392 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 1: In this, I don't think those are always things that 393 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: you know, extended family come to anyway. Yeah, Like I 394 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: think sometimes that is just like a partner in you, right, 395 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: So maybe maybe just saying, Hey, we're just. 396 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 3: Going to do this. 397 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 2: We're don't even have to tell them. 398 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 3: You don't even tell them, don't even tell them, don't 399 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 3: even know hear it. 400 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: Anyways, mother in law isn't very observant and isn't very 401 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: good at reading the room. We could all feel the 402 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: tension rising as Jenny got more and more uncomfortable, with 403 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 1: mother in law showing signs of anxiety. Both my fiance 404 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: and I tried explaining again and trying to get her 405 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: to move on from the specific drinks that don't matter 406 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 1: yet wedding is in September. Finally, Jenny cracked and looked 407 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: dead at me and said, I'm sorry, this is feeling hostile. 408 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 3: What do you think about that? 409 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, So in front of mother in law 410 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: she said that I feel like you don't you don't 411 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 2: call that out. 412 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 3: She's like, too, I feel like that's. 413 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: A weird I think that if you're I don't know, 414 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: if you're like a professional person, I would exactly. 415 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like there's a way to. 416 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 2: That wasn't the way to do it. Yeah, I think 417 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 2: it's like you finished that conversation and after the fact 418 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: you go to op and you're like, Hey, I'm feeling 419 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 2: a little uncomfortable. I think moving forward, we need to 420 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: plan this a bit. 421 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: Differently, like maybe I don't feel like comfortable being around 422 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 1: being Yeah, I don't think. 423 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: I don't know if I. 424 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 3: Would have done that in the room. 425 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, trying to avoid looking at mother in law, who 426 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: immediately got infunded, who said, do you feel I am 427 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: attacking you? Jenny says, yes, I do. Poor Jenny is 428 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: visibly shaken as she stands up for herself and as 429 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: calm a manner as she can. She has anxiety like me, 430 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: and neither of us were doing well. We made it 431 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: about a fourth five minutes into the appointment. Four or 432 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: five minutes into the appointment. 433 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 3: For asking you for drink. 434 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: Suggestions, mother in law proceeds to slam her hands on 435 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: the table. Okay, that's a little intense, Yeah, echoing very 436 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: loudly in the barn menu and grabs her coat. 437 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 3: I can't. 438 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: I don't deal with stress well, and immediately teared up 439 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: with a double order nausea. Fine, if I'm not wanted, 440 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: I'll go, and proceeds to stomp out. 441 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: Well, is it getting so dramatic over some cocktails? 442 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, Josephina Mandola's berkey says, no, she is right in 443 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: calling it out. 444 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that. 445 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: I think how I think it should have been done. 446 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: I think they should have addressed this way sooner. I 447 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: think she just shouldn't. I think I agree with you, 448 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 1: she shouldn't have been going to the appointments earlier. 449 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but again, like you said, it's not professional 450 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: to call that out in the moment, and I really 451 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 2: think it could have just I don't know. It's hard though, 452 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 2: when our emotions get the best of us in the. 453 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 3: She has anxiety, she's probably she probably. 454 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: This is a lot especially of like the slamming that 455 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: was well, yeah, because I feel like before it didn't 456 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: that she didn't ope, he didn't say exactly what was 457 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: so like no making her Jenny so uncomfortable. 458 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 3: But the slamming of hands, I don't know. I guess 459 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: I'm a little bit split. 460 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 5: Maybe she's just trying to get lit at the party. 461 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: But I just want good cocktails. 462 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 2: Bring a flask anyway. 463 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: What is the relationship with Jenny and Op I missed 464 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 1: the beginning. Jenny is the like she seems like she's 465 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 1: the decorator. Yeah, they just get along like the planner, yeah, which, yeah, 466 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: so that's the only reason, just because I worked in 467 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: like service obviously don't treat people disrespectfully. But I think 468 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: that as someone who worked in it, you just kind 469 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 1: of it. Put up with a lot you do which 470 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,479 Speaker 1: is not fair. You go and cry in the kitchen 471 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: and you come back. 472 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know. 473 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: I think that Radish says, it's perfectly professional if you 474 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: feel your client is being hostile. I think it depends. 475 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: I think it depends on what she was doing, because 476 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: the slamming the hands would be a lot, and I 477 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: think at that point I'd be like. 478 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: No, that's at that point, I'd be like, hey, I'm 479 00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 2: done with this conversation. 480 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 3: I think that's yeah. 481 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 5: The mother in law, Yeah, kick her out of the family, 482 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 5: kick her out. 483 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: Emma fourteen o eight says, I think if you're feeling unsafe, 484 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: it's okay to call it out. 485 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 486 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 3: I think I wasn't as clear before the slamming of 487 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 3: the hands. 488 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: Yeah I didn't. It just seemed like she was nosy. 489 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, because if it was just her being like, 490 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: oh I want, I want, and that was the only thing. 491 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 3: That I'd be like, I don't know. If I would 492 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 3: call that out. 493 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: But if it was the same energy of slamming the 494 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: table and being like you're wrong, Yeah, then I think 495 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: calling it is out. 496 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 3: It is okay. 497 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 2: I want to see what happens. I want to know 498 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 2: where there's more, where fiance comes, what is he doing? Like, 499 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 2: where is he? 500 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: Yeah? 501 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: Where is he? 502 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 3: I proceeded to try and fail not to cry. 503 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: Which also sucks because I feel like this is a piece, 504 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: like you should be happy about this. Yeah, you should 505 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: be enjoying it, I know, which is again why I 506 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: think that the mother in law should just not have 507 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: been invited to these things. 508 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 2: Also side note, Yeah, so many brides that I talked 509 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 2: to or bride to be. Yah, it sounds like wedding 510 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 2: planning is miserable. 511 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it sounds really hard. 512 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 2: It sounds really hard and not fun. Yeah, and I 513 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 2: feel like it it shouldn't be that way. 514 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I think it should be. 515 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I think event planning in general is just 516 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: really hard, and that's why. 517 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 2: People try to If you have enough money, you pay someone. 518 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 3: To do it, to do it for you, yeah. 519 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: Which is a luxury. 520 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:24,959 Speaker 3: Yeah. 521 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: I think Actually I would love to do a poll 522 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: because I think I'm a little bit split on do 523 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: we think that Jenny should have called her out, because 524 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: I think I've seen some people in the common saying 525 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: she was perfectly right to call her out, and I 526 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: think after the slamming of the hands, I was I 527 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: agree with that. 528 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 3: But before Jenny, No, should Jenny have called the mother 529 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 3: in line? 530 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 2: I said, this is getting really hush. 531 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: Miss silver Tears says, I think Jenny was being very 532 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: unprofessional and wasn't doing her job correctly. If you are 533 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: in customer service, these things you need to deal with correctly. 534 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: Mother in law was annoying, but that's her job. And 535 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: then Martika Waterman says, yes, monster law, Uh, I should 536 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: have just left the situation. If OP talked to the 537 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: fiance about this and he still didn't want to deal 538 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: with it, than just leave. Yeah, So I think they're 539 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: what do we have? 540 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 3: We have? Yes? 541 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: So far everyone's saying, yes, Jenny should call the mother 542 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: in law out. That is actually a great point, Titania. 543 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: Someone should have called mother in law mother in law out, 544 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: but not the wedding planner. That I think is a 545 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: better point that I think someone should have stood up 546 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: for her sooner. Yeah, I think it shouldn't have been 547 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: on Jenny to call out the mother in law. 548 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: No, I think that's a better point. 549 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's so tough because I'm trying to think 550 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 4: when someone actually has the strength and confidence to call 551 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 4: out like their partner's parents. 552 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 2: That's really hard. It is hard, really really hard. And 553 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 2: I definitely had instances in the past where I had 554 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 2: to tell someone hey, that makes me uncomfortable instead of 555 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: telling the parent directly. Absolutely, it's really hard. So yeah, 556 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 2: Op should have been like, hey, you know what, like 557 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 2: I kind of just want to have this conversation about 558 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: the cocktails just with Jenny if that would be okay 559 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 2: with you. You know, that's really hard. 560 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 3: It's really hard. 561 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: No, it's absolutely really hard. But I think that, Yeah, 562 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: I think it's unfair. I guess I guess what I 563 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: am not realizing is I think that it's unfair that 564 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 1: Jenny had to call it out. 565 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 2: The thing is, I don't know if she had to. Yeah, 566 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: I think that's what we're asking, right, Did she had to? 567 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 2: And who knows? If Op and Jenny were talking outside 568 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: of these conversations, maybe Jenny knew how frustrated OPI was. 569 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: Maybe yeah, maybe she was like you know what you're 570 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 2: doing this to my girl stuff. 571 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 3: You're done? 572 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, done, forty Brady says Jenny should she could have 573 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 1: said it better. The way she said it, from the 574 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: way it's written was very awkward, which can make a 575 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: situation much worse, especially in service. 576 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 3: That's my thing. 577 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: I think that one way she could have I think 578 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: you kind have said it of like, hey, I think 579 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: this is you know, I think we're getting a little 580 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: bit like tensions arising a little bit. Let's take a 581 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: beat and we can come back and look at these later. 582 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:06,239 Speaker 3: Let's look at something out. 583 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 2: I wish I could talk, lad. I wish that my 584 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: like conflict and resolution skill were like that good. 585 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, well mine heart, I just I mean, I guess 586 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: I did a little bit of service, so partially I 587 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: could oh, no good, But. 588 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 2: At the restaurant I was pretty good because I worked 589 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 2: in restaurants for Yeah. 590 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 3: But she is on the job, so this isn't even open. 591 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying Jenny, like yeah, So if we are saying 592 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: Jenny should have called it out, I still think maybe 593 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: there was a way where she could have done it 594 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: in a little bit of less direct way. 595 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 2: Yeah again, going, but what everybody's saying, is that, oh wait, 596 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 2: what's that? The wedding planner is there for the bride 597 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 2: and groom, not anyone else. If the mother in law 598 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 2: is stepping on toes the planner one hundred percent can 599 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: call it out. Yes, she should have called it out. 600 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 2: Op is her client?

That the change was sudden 652 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: and she had no idea things were tense. Everyone else 653 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: certainly knew it. We kept exchanging looks and trying to 654 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: move it along. She also told him I hurt her 655 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: feelings when I shut down all of her suggestions, just 656 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: the candle thing in cocktail, and when I told her 657 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: I don't really care for the drink that much. I 658 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: didn't realize it meant that much to her. 659 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 3: I don't know. 660 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 1: I feel like it was pretty obvious that she was 661 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: It's like, I'm obsessed with this tree. 662 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 2: I know, I want to know what drink. 663 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 3: She was like, it's so good. 664 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: I think if the cocktail was like that good, I 665 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 2: would just let her have it. 666 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, but a piece said that she didn't really like it. 667 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 2: Oh it's okay. 668 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: My mom pointed it out to me later.

It's true. Queen Deese 697 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 3: is no one is an a whole interesting. 698 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: I think I think everyone was a little bit of 699 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: the a whole to different degree. 700 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 3: That's my bond. But if you disagree with me, you 701 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 3: can say. 702 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 2: No, it's like not then none of them were like terrible. 703 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: I think this is not to the degree most a 704 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 2: whole behavior. Maybe, Jenny, that's what's coming to mind for me, 705 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 2: I think, but why slamming on the hands a whole behavior? Yeah, 706 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 2: that was, you know, but I think yeah, she felt attacked, 707 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 2: felt like it was two on one, and was just 708 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 2: trying to help cares a lot. I think that's what happens, 709 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 2: is that when you're not open and clear about your 710 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 2: emotions and people feel blindsided, then they're like, what what. 711 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 3: You want to hear? Yeah? 712 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: No, I think in the end, but do you agree 713 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: that everyone or do you think Jenny like everyone made mistakes? 714 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 2: Everyone made I think everyone? 715 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone, Yeah, I think it was. I think it 716 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: wasn't like end of the world a whole. I think 717 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: it was everyone was making mistakes. 718 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 2: Just just just be real, just be up front, Just 719 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 2: be upfront. 720 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 3: Don't scoot around the bush and the. 721 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 2: Big bush and. 722 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 3: What's the phrase, oh, Scooter around.

I agree that 726 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 2: that's what we were missing. 727 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 728 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, And little triny Web says, maybe she shouts because 729 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: of her bad hearing. That's what I was thinking of, 730 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: that's what yeah, yeah, which is the only thought. 731 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 2: It was a little tap, not a VI. 732 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 3: You don't want me here. 733 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: At Yeah, that's the only reason why I was thinking. 734 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: Maybe the mother in law just wasn't realizing what she 735 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: was doing, and that's the true. 736 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 2: And someone was saying, yeah, maybe just mother in law 737 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 2: is just oblivious, which op says, but yeah, it. 738 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 3: Seems like she doesn't be those social cues. 739 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, which it can be hard when you're trying 740 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: to have a conversation someone who's especially with an outside person. 741 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 2: I would say, honestly though, like you know, now that 742 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about it, I would have just given her 743 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 2: the cocktail. Fine, you know, name it after her, name 744 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 2: it something you make her feel, and then that way 745 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: you keep going with the wedding cleanning girl, I gave 746 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: you the cocktail. I gave it to you. 747 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: I think that I don't think ope is necessarily wrong, 748 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: but I think I also would have done it, just 749 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: because I'm like, it's a I don't even drink, Like. 750 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 2: Sure, you can let her have it. 751 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but let's get into this little update. 752 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 2: We're just cooting around the bush. 753 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: She sent me a birthday card April in the mail, 754 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: saying I'm sorry for how things went down at the venue. 755 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to a beautiful wedding day, but no 756 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: actual admission of wrongdoing.

Since two months, but I 759 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: still wonder should I agree to have the drink she 760 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: wanted at my wedding. It's not like it to be 761 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: the only drink there, but I question if it should 762 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: be there at all. I think she should have it, 763 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: but it's like limited, yeah, or like off menu. 764 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 5: She's like, no, it's there. 765 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 2: It's like a secret thing you have to ask the 766 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 2: bartender for exactly. 767 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: This was about one month after the appointment in April. 768 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: Total silence between us. We've been acting like we're over 769 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: it and are letting it go for now. As long 770 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: as she doesn't try to spin what happened or justify 771 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: her behavior. I told my fiance I'm not going to 772 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: let that fly, and we'll call her out if she 773 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: starts it. The appointment was in March and it's been 774 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: four months. Am I dragging this out? I know she 775 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: didn't actually take responsibility for her actions, but honestly, I'm 776 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: not sure that I'll ever change if I featured the 777 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: drink she wanted at the wedding, would that be an 778 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: olive branch or a bulldozer?

Nice for you 848 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: to read another story. 849 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 2: Believe this one isn't as sad am I the a 850 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 2: hole for getting angry at my mother in law for 851 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 2: ruining my first time mom experience. Yeah, how do you 852 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 2: deal with a bad mother in law? So material active 853 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 2: five seven seventy five says not sure if this is 854 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 2: a am I the a hole? Or in off my chest? 855 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, here goes the backstories. When my mother in 856 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 2: law had my partner, she wouldn't allow any of her 857 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 2: in laws to meet the baby because my partner's granddad 858 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 2: was a violent man when he was drunk. This does 859 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 2: not sound like we're. 860 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 3: Off to a good start. Oh sorry, I'm so sorry. 861 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 3: I don't think this one is. Yeah. 862 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get. 863 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 3: Some comedy up in here. Guys. 864 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 2: Fast forward to when she finally allowed them after years, 865 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 2: Their nana became their favorite person. She was a lovely woman. 866 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 2: This is important to get an idea of her character. 867 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 2: When I found out I was pregnant, there were issues 868 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: with our housing, so we had to move in with 869 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 2: one of my parents, one of our parents. We decided 870 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 2: to move into my in laws because they had always 871 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: given us space and it seemed like the better option. 872 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 2: They were happy to have us, and I got on 873 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 2: well with my in laws. Okay, this is great. I 874 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 2: gave birth to my first baby on the thirteenth of May. 875 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 2: The birth was a positive one, but I still had 876 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 2: minor complications and the healing process was a long one. However, 877 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: I was discharged that same day because I thought healing 878 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 2: at home would be better. I had made it clear 879 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 2: I didn't really want any visitors for at least the 880 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: first week, as private family time means a lot to me. However, 881 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 2: since my in laws would be meeting her when we 882 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 2: got home, I thought I would get all the visits 883 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 2: done within the first week so I could relax from 884 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: there on. Okay, that makes sense. Just allow people to 885 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 2: pop by when they were free, and then I could 886 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 2: have the second week to relax and spend time with 887 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 2: my baby. The day I arrived back with my baby, 888 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 2: my mother in law came straight to the door and 889 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 2: wanted to hold her. Of course, I could see her 890 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 2: excitement and gave her my baby. She then said to 891 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 2: the baby, are you coming with grandma to meet my 892 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 2: friends next Monday. 893 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 3: What she just brought her home. 894 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 2: She just brought her home a yet fresh baby. That's 895 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 2: a fresh baby, rush out of the woop. Oh my gosh, grandma, 896 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 2: come on, come down, grandma. 897 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: Grandma, slow the roller she was she was stop scooting 898 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: around the bush croup. 899 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: She was basically asking if she could take the baby 900 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 2: out to meet her friends, who she was had lunch 901 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 2: with once a week. Firstly, baby is breastfed, so no. Secondly, 902 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 2: please give me some time to meet my baby first 903 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 2: before you start showing her around like a toy, like 904 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:27,760 Speaker 2: a baby. 905 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 5: I know. 906 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 2: It was all downhill from there. She then got angry 907 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 2: because she wanted me to come to watch a rugby 908 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 2: match that weekend four days postpartum. Whoa why are you 909 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 2: asking someone four days postpartum to do anything like they're 910 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 2: like shuffleboard. 911 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 3: It's shuffle. 912 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 5: That's a pretty aggressive sport to watch after. 913 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 914 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 3: Wow, only seen in women's rugby.

I thought I was 930 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 2: probably being the irrational one. 931 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 3: I want to see people don't like. 932 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. So I did everything she wanted me 933 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 2: to do. For a long time, I didn't trust my 934 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: own judgments, knowing how hormonal I was. And when my 935 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 2: mother in law gave birth, she had to stay in 936 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 2: the hospital for ten days and complained that she had 937 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 2: to go into all these on the way back, all 938 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 2: the grocery. 939 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think this is in Australia. I think, actually, yeah, 940 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: it's definitely not here in Australia. 941 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 2: Yet she expected me to run around after her the 942 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 2: day I gave birth. My mother in law never offered 943 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 2: to help me with anything, never offered to make me 944 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 2: a drink, make me food, et cetera. Only ever put 945 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 2: some of my clothes in the wash when she was 946 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 2: putting a big wash in. I'm not gonna help you 947 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 2: with anything, but I'm doing some laundry. You want me 948 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 2: to throw some of your clothes in. In terms of recovering, again, 949 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 2: never cared about how I was doing, And the closest 950 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 2: thing she got to caring was asking me if I'd 951 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: stopped bleeding Yetikes. 952 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 3: This mother in law sounds is bad.

Her behaviors 1030 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,959 Speaker 2: are even worse when my partner isn't around, which tells 1031 00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 2: me she's aware of what she's doing.

It rings 1037 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 2: alarm bells to me that she refused to let her 1038 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: in laws meet her babies, and this is how she 1039 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:24,280 Speaker 2: acts with mine. She even bitch about my partner's nanna 1040 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 2: because she also wanted to bring her friends to meet 1041 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 2: the baby, and my mother in law wasn't happy about it. 1042 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 2: This is exactly what she did to me and still 1043 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 2: continues to do. There's so much more, but it's hard 1044 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: to fit it all into a single post. I kind 1045 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 2: of just want some advice an FYI, my partner is 1046 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 2: aware of this, and we're trying to buy our own 1047 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 2: house asap. Great, but unfortunately these things take time. 1048 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: Okay, So the issue is that they do need to 1049 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 1: stay with her financially probably, yeah, which makes it really difficult. 1050 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. I just again, I've never had a baby, but 1051 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 2: but I can imagine it is just such a stressful 1052 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 2: and tiring experience. And to have someone on you like that. 1053 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're trying to like spend those first connection yeah, yeah, 1054 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: those first week's bond.

And I think 1059 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: that the fiance her son should be more active and saying, hey, 1060 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:30,800 Speaker 1: you can't be doing that. Yeah, but I think maybe 1061 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: the only if this is her behavior, maybe the only 1062 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 1: solution they just have to wait they move out, which sucks. 1063 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 2: I know, move out, but also yeah, I think fiance 1064 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,439 Speaker 2: needs to be like, hey, yeah, you need to back 1065 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 2: off in a nice way. 1066 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 1: I would you know if you were maybe just saying 1067 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 1: like you need to help a little bit more if 1068 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: you want that time if you want the baby time. Yeah, 1069 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,800 Speaker 1: but I'll put in this yeah yeah yeah, and not 1070 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: just as as he said, boundaries, they have not clarify that. 1071 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: It doesn't seem that way. It seems like he knows 1072 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:08,399 Speaker 1: about it about her behavior. But yeah, it's tough because 1073 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: they can't they they can't. It doesn't seem like they 1074 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,399 Speaker 1: can leave because they're saving that, which sucks. Yeah, when 1075 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: you're stuck in that situation. 1076 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, bummer. 1077 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so hard.
