I'm strong 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: and geddy, one more thing. 3 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 2: Why this is making me nervous? 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: They would make me nervous too. Before we get to 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: Katie Green the news Machine, Katie, Katie the news Lady. 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: I was getting some texts from a friend of mine 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: and we've been having this conversation ongoing for well, actually 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: for quite a while, but the last couple of days 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: it's been emphasized the whole like younger people, people in 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: their twenties in the workplace thing that a number of 11 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: people have observed, and I've had this experience myself, and 12 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: they are having the problem with the level of like 13 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: familiarity and lack of And it's hard to say this 14 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: without sounding like a dick, but just just like you 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: go into a workplace where you want to be what 16 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: the older people are, but you treat them like peers 17 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: in a very, very too familiar way that didn't exist 18 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: throughout my entire career. And I just had that experience 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: here and now they are having this person other person's 20 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: having it at their workplace just like way too much. 21 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: You know, Hey, Bud, how's it going? Hey, what's up? Dude? 22 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: What lack of respect. Yeah, and again it's hard to 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: say it without sounding like a dick. But when I 24 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: started in various jobs, I didn't talk to the older 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: people that had the jobs I wanted that way and 26 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: like suggesting ways they ought to do things differently and 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: just And I've had a couple of people mention that 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: sort of thing, And what we were discussing is where 29 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: that comes from? Joe and I regularly say, and I 30 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: never hear anybody else say this. They didn't raise themselves. 31 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: They didn't raise themselves. But culturally, why do young people 32 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: come into the workplace and feel like they can treat 33 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: their betters as to their beers? 34 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: Okay, I said, they're better while you do so much 35 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 3: industry and a British dick no less. 36 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what the right term would be, but. 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: Uh no, I get, I get exactly what you're saying. 38 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 3: I don't know, just off the top of my head. 39 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: I think it probably has to do with virtually all 40 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: of our experience was actual back in the day, and 41 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: every generation would layer a little new lacquer details on 42 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 3: the way people act in quotes, come up with variations 43 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: and change it a little bit. But now so much 44 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: of people's experience is virtual. They're not a product of 45 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: what they've experienced in the same way. I don't know 46 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 3: that helped. 47 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: Well, maybe if you're gonna go with multi causal, I 48 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: can throw out a whole bunch of multi causal I think. 49 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it's the some of the fruits of the 50 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: everybody gets a trophy generation, which has been going on 51 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: for quite a while now. But true, that's part of it. 52 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: The self esteem movement. We went way too far. Too 53 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: much self esteem, is what I'm saying. 54 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: You got miserable failure. 55 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: You've got way too much self esteem for your age 56 00:02:59,080 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 1: and where you are. 57 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 3: All right, take it down a notch and what you've accomplished. Yeah, 58 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 3: you know, more importantly that in the hold the parenting trend. 59 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 3: If I want to be my kid's friend, not their. 60 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: Parent, right, you have something Michael. 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm ashamed to say this, but I watched a 62 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 4: manager reprimand a young reporter here at one time, and 63 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 4: you know, it was over something very minor, but he 64 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 4: had basically said, you know, you need to pick it up, 65 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 4: you need to you know, get with it. You're sitting around, 66 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 4: and the young reporter looked at him and said, I'm sorry, 67 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 4: but I've never been talked to that way. I don't 68 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 4: know if I can work here. And this person was 69 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 4: like twenty five years old. 70 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so again getting to my monocausal stuff. No teacher 71 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: can talk to kids that way. So if your parents 72 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: aren't talking you that way, the teachers, the coaches, nobody 73 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: ever talks to you in any sort of way. That 74 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: kind of puts you in your place. And again it 75 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: makes me sound like a thing, But there is a place. 76 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: There's a place for children, there's a place for people 77 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: lower on the wrung, there's a place. There's there's a structure, 78 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: there's a hierarchy in life. They're just it is. 79 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 3: And well, I sure as hell hope there is. Like 80 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 3: when I go in for a surgery, you know, I'm 81 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 3: hoping that person did well in. 82 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,559 Speaker 1: Medical school, for instance, Yes, Katie. 83 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 5: Well no, I just think about a lot of the 84 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 5: younger people too, have kind of been growing up in 85 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 5: that anti law enforcement generation like they are. They don't 86 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 5: respect the cops. What's going to make you think they're 87 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 5: going to expect respect? You know, somebody who might have 88 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 5: worked at a company for five years more than them, 89 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 5: I don't know, I think that the lack of respect 90 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 5: for law enforcement kind of trickles down. 91 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: I don't actually know. It might just be all of 92 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: these things, but I have experienced and it's really off putting. 93 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to try to explain to my kids to 94 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: have a different attitude when they go into a workplace 95 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: with the people above you with way more experience making 96 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: a lot more money than you. How about you watch 97 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: and observe as opposed to think your peers they got 98 00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: something new you might want at some level. Anyw I've 99 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: come across enough people bringing this up to know what's 100 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 1: a thing. If you have any thoughts on it listening 101 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 1: to this, you could text us or email us. How 102 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: did people email us? 103 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: Mail bag at Armstrong in getty dot com. 104 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,359 Speaker 4: All right, I learned a lot from veteran radio people. 105 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 4: I was thrilled. I wanted them to take me under my. 106 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: Way right, No, right, yeah, or veteran whatever industry you 107 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: go into, you're an new insurancemith salesman, the people that 108 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: have been there a long time making more money with 109 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: the nice car, Maybe uh pay those was a respect 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: and listen to what they got to say.

We got a 112 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: text with a couple of questions that I don't think 113 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: we've ever asked you before. We'll just it this way. 114 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: Katie Green is a great addition to Armstrong and Getty, 115 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: A real pro. But I do have some questions. One, 116 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: how many pushups can she do? 117 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: What the hell you know? 118 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. 119 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 5: I know that I've done I think it was twenty 120 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 5: eight and thirty seconds. 121 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: How recent like two months ago? Okay, that's pretty rare. 122 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: I think that number's probably gone out. 123 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, if it's fairly recently, that's okay. I've never I 124 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: don't like people tell me how like this always comes 125 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: up with. 126 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: Running thousand and six. 127 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: This always comes up with running with me and how 128 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: long to take you to run the ten k or whatever? 129 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: I used to run a ten k? And whatever? Yeah, 130 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: how long ago was that? When's the last time you 131 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: ran a ten k? And if you haven't done it 132 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: in fifteen years? I don't freaking care. All right, what 133 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: difference does it make? Do it now? 134 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 3: Nineteen seventy eight? By the way, as long as you asked, 135 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 3: literally the last time you ran a ten k? That 136 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: might have been seventy nine. 137 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do one in the next year. That's what 138 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm building up to.

Cut to the chips, cut the chase to 156 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: the catch. So you've done that many push ups fairly recently. 157 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: That's a good chunk of push ups right there. 158 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 3: I have not done a one since my back problem 159 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: started last summer, so I think I need to start 160 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 3: working my way back.

So the trumpet section 227 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 1: had decided that during this rest a rest if you 228 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: don't know music is silence, or you'd stop playing. But 229 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: in this case, it was actually silence during the song. 230 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: During the rest, all the trumpet players were gonna, I 231 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: forget what the noise was, even pretend to burp or 232 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: something like that.

He used to throw 243 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,599 Speaker 1: his keys at people, this whole set of keys, or 244 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: the baton. He threw the baton at people, erasers, all 245 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: kinds of stuff. But anyway, he got so mad at 246 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: people burping during the rest, and he went one by 247 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: one who did it? Who did that? And then everybody's 248 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: just kind of sitting there and some people were smirking whatever, 249 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: And he went one by one and looked them in 250 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: the eye and put their finger right in their face. 251 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: Did you make that sound during the rest? And most 252 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: of them, most of them fessed up and said yes. 253 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: But it got to me and I said no because 254 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: I didn't so I had.
