So stick around two minutes and we'll 6 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: get into the episode. 7 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 3: My boss said, I don't deserve a raise. 8 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 2: Sounds like you need a new job. 9 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 3: Trigger warning, workplace exploitation and toxic boss. I'm nineteen female, 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 3: am working two part time jobs and going to school 11 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,159 Speaker 3: full time. My first part time job, Job one, is 12 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: as a pharmacy clerk, and I make eighteen fifty an hour. 13 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 3: That's not too bad as a nineteen. 14 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: Year old, depending on where you live. 15 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,840 Speaker 3: Part time job eighteen fifty. My first part time job 16 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 3: was fourteen dollars. 17 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 4: I was working for free. 18 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 3: My second part time job, Job two, which I started 19 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 3: in April, is also an healthcare I make twenty three 20 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 3: dollars an hour now at job two.

I'm Sophia, I'm Ryan, 24 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: I'm ke On, and we're here to give good advice goofully, 25 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 3: but we don't have all the answers. We only know 26 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 3: what we'd do, So let us know what you would 27 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 3: do in the comments and o pisas. When I was 28 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 3: hired at Job two, they knew I was going to 29 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 3: school full time and that I had another job. I 30 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 3: was given a position title and a list of responsibilities 31 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 3: that I signed for, acknowledging that I understood them. When 32 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 3: summer started, I was able to work full time at 33 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 3: Job two. My boss, Mary, who is the CEO of 34 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 3: the company, wanted me to be at the office daily 35 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: as well. They also made me a scheduler for their staff. 36 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 3: I was told by my supervisor, Karen not her actual name, 37 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 3: that I was to put aside all other tasks that 38 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 3: I was hired for and complete the schedules for at 39 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 3: the time for people. Mary is Karen's boss too. Eventually 40 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 3: another person was hired and I was scheduled for five 41 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 3: people at one point, all by myself, whoa I mentioned 42 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 3: that with the current scheduling system it would not be 43 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 3: possible to manage so many people. Karen told me to 44 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: do what I can and that we would circle back 45 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: at the end of the week. From then on, any 46 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 3: attempt to receive help was responded to with do what 47 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: you can and we'll circle back on it. 48 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 2: Oh. 49 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: However, I eventually created a new scheduling system and two 50 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 3: people left the company. They were social workers. One of 51 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: the people quit because of being overworked by the way. 52 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: This meant I only had to schedule for three nurses. 53 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: With my new system that Karen loved and that she 54 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 3: constantly monitors for new changes I make, I was able 55 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: to create schedules for the nurses that were always up 56 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 3: to date. Now, for context, two out of three nurses 57 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: go to patient homes in over eleven different cities. The 58 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 3: nurses do not go to the same cities. The schedules 59 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 3: also changed based on several factors. The nurse says she 60 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 3: cannot work that day, a new patient is omitted, and 61 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: we now have to cancel the visits that were originally scheduled, 62 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 3: or the nurse sees them ahead of schedule, and now 63 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 3: there are gaps in our calendar. As a scheduler, I 64 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: am to apologize to the patient when any of these 65 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 3: last minute changes happen, sometimes the day of or day before, 66 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 3: and I also have to reschedule them as is scheduler. 67 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 3: I pick who to put on the nurse's calendar and 68 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 3: make that decision based on the last time they were 69 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 3: seen and where they are located. We prioritize patients who 70 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 3: have gone the longest without nurse visits. The same goes 71 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: for the other nurse who does telephone visits instead of 72 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: in person. Now, some of these nurses do not send 73 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: me their availability when it is due, and as a result, 74 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: once I finally get it, I am left scrambling last 75 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: minute to schedule people for them. When the nurses are 76 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: rude to patients, I file complaints for the patients as well. 77 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 3: I was asked to request the availability from the nurses 78 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: and document any complaints along the way, but nothing is 79 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: ever done about it. When a nurse submits her availability 80 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: days before calendar is supposed to start, she still works. 81 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 3: If there is a complaint, it will be addressed weeks later. 82 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 3: HR and Mary talk to the nurses about these issues, 83 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 3: but nothing ever changes and the behavior continues. God it, 84 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: it has been several months and each month is the same, 85 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: So it seems you're hope he's just doing a lot. 86 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, what you have going on is work, but the 87 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: outside factors are not doing what they're supposed. 88 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: To do exactly, so you make an ope's job harder, 89 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: it seems. I call our patients and start with the 90 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 3: ones without visits in the longest times stated earlier. Now, 91 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 3: what I also need to mention is that some patients 92 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 3: never answer. I spend several hours each week just calling 93 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 3: twice and leaving voicemails in English and Spanish. Those patients 94 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 3: aren't even being scheduled, but they still take a chunk 95 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 3: out of my day, especially people with landlines. Anyways, there 96 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: are several other things that take up a huge part 97 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 3: of scheduling, but I won't be able to list them all, 98 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 3: especially updating my scheduling system every morning with all the 99 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: scene visits from the past few days from our nurses. 100 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 3: I also want to point out that I monitor another 101 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 3: person's scheduling Lucy. Lucy creates a schedule for our nurse 102 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 3: practitioner MP. My boss, Mary wants me to call our 103 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 3: patients to make sure they are getting scheduled. She says, 104 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: it's because I do such a great job with the 105 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 3: nurses calendar that I can do this as well. Now 106 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 3: it's more stuff for OP. 107 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 2: Let's go pay raise. 108 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, are you getting paid? According to all this new 109 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 3: stuff that you have to do. My responsibilities right now 110 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 3: are to schedule for three part time nurses, monitor Lucy's scheduling, 111 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: update my scheduling system, and update my supervisor. Karen. Now, 112 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: let's talk about Karen. Karen loves to micromanage and tell 113 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 3: me what to do every second of every day. 114 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I. 115 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: Even though I am almost one hundred percent positive, she 116 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 3: has never scheduled anyone in her life. Now, I want 117 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 3: to say this, I hate Karen. Her favorite line to 118 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 3: tell me is when I tell you to do something, 119 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 3: you do it. 120 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 2: Now. 121 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: I also want to say this, I don't need this job, 122 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 3: then quit, just quit. I already have another job, job, 123 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 3: one where I've been cussed at before by customers or 124 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 3: been a victim of my boss's passive aggressive comments. I've 125 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 3: dealt with it before. It's not something new. However, I 126 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 3: do not like to be someone's witch when I don't 127 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: have to. Karen's meetings with me are always an unnecessary 128 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 3: part of my day that provide no new information or 129 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 3: aid my scheduling. 130 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: Anyway, Lovely, I love that about you. Always want that 131 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: about meetings. 132 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 3: The best part It always slows me down. And is 133 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: just a way for her to make it seem like 134 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 3: she's overseeing and providing guidance when Mary asks her about it. 135 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 3: I want to mention that I sent an email to 136 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: Mary that went back and forth and accomplished nothing. I 137 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 3: stated that I would not do both positions. I would 138 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: either be in the admin position that I was originally 139 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: hired for or just a scheduler. I told her I 140 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 3: would be going back to part time once school started 141 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 3: and could not continue to do both. Also, my coworker 142 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 3: Chloe is literally the person who has been taking over 143 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 3: all my admin tasks. She realized scheduling took up all 144 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 3: my time and took over all my original responsibilities. I 145 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 3: also mentioned this to Mary in my email. Mary's response 146 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 3: was to continue to let Chloe do both our admin 147 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 3: jobs while I schedule. Mary also stated that Chloe was 148 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 3: not to do both our jobs completely, but that I 149 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 3: should step in to help her occasionally as well, since 150 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 3: that was still my current position. This is row I 151 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 3: was hired to be an admin. I was being asked 152 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 3: to be scheduler and admin even though Chloe was doing 153 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 3: both jobs because I didn't have enough time to do 154 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: both positions. I told Mary I could only do one 155 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 3: job or the other, and that my title and pay 156 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 3: would have to reflect that as well. At the end 157 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 3: of our email chain, Mary said talking to me was 158 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,679 Speaker 3: pointless and that my responsibilities did not constitute or raise 159 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: or title change. 160 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: And also sounds like they don't respect you, they're taking 161 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: advantage of you or value your contribution. 162 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 3: No, not at all, she said. If it didn't align 163 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: with what I wanted, that I could basically find another 164 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: job that would. 165 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 4: So I quit good job, huge. 166 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: Just like that. I did not give two weeks. I 167 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 3: quit the same day I sent my resignation letter. I 168 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 3: cleaned up my office, told Karen I was leaving. She 169 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 3: started going off, saying that she does two jobs too 170 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 3: and never complains. Well, you probably make a lot more money, Karen. 171 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 3: The difference is me and Karen don't make the same 172 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 3: amount of money. 173 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 4: Mm hmm. 174 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: I wrote my email to HR, telling them I would 175 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: be leaving by the end of the day. At this point, 176 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 3: I had already started school and cleaning my office didn't 177 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: take as long as I thought. Mary called me and 178 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 3: told me she thought I would still be at the office. 179 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,239 Speaker 3: I told her I ended up leaving earlier than I thought. 180 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: Mary asked me to come back and mentioned that I 181 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 3: would only do admin work when Chloe was gone for 182 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 3: the day or if Chloe needed help. She said I 183 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 3: would not be a scheduler for that day if I 184 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 3: was asked to do admin duties. She also mentioned that 185 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 3: our performance valuations were coming up and applied I would 186 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 3: get a raise. Then I came back because Mary asked 187 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 3: me to, and nothing changed. Mary and Karen complained about 188 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 3: why I was so far behind in scheduling, but proceeded 189 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 3: to leave out the reasons why I received two nurses 190 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 3: availability late. I was rescheduling for their current calendars because 191 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: they kept making changes and I was working part time already, 192 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 3: and I decided to quit. 193 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 4: Oh dude, for real zase this time. 194 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 2: As you can see, people are more worried about their 195 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 2: position in orders and deflecting accountability rather than getting the 196 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: stuff done. 197 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 3: No. 198 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 2: Literally, if you were focused on getting the stuff done, 199 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: he would be like, they would have been more on 200 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: top of the nurses. They would understand, they'd try to 201 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: make game plans for you if things weren't working out. 202 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: They're just trying to be like, Oh, you're smaller than me, 203 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: Look how small you are I'm going. 204 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 3: To take advantage of all the hard work you do 205 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 3: and not pay you properly. In the meeting, they asked 206 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 3: me if I would be able to continue scheduling as 207 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 3: I usually did, and I said yes, just not in 208 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 3: the same timeframe. Mary mentioned if I couldn't complete this job, 209 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 3: she would find someone who could schedule and do admin tasks. 210 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 3: This is my second week of school. I quit during 211 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 3: my first week of school and was rehired during the 212 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: time I was thinking about quitting. The first time I 213 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 3: applied to an internship I got in this week, I 214 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: am planning to quit again. My internship will help me 215 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 3: build my resume and work experience that actually contributes to 216 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 3: my major CS. This job does not. It was just 217 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: a way to save money while I was in school 218 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 3: until I could transfer to a fourth year. I'm gonna 219 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 3: quit today again. Am I the a hole? No? Just quit, 220 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: it's just quit. 221 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: You know your responsibilities here, Yeah, and. 222 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 3: They clearly also know and take advantage. Mary said that 223 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 3: I did not deserve a raise or title change because 224 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 3: the nurses are part time and we only have around 225 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty five patients in our three programs altogether, 226 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 3: A lot of patients. Karen also stated that she covers 227 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: multiple responsibilities as well. They said that the amount of 228 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: time it takes for me to schedule should not take 229 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 3: as long as it's taking these past two weeks. Well, 230 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: then you guys do it. 231 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 2: I think she would get done faster if everybody would 232 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 2: submit it a time. 233 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: But there is a little bit left to this story. 234 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 3: Any final thoughts. 235 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 2: If you don't need the job, don't, don't. 236 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 3: Be at the job. 237 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 4: Also know you're worth Yeah, oh. 238 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm glad that OPI has been kind of 239 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: standing up for herself this whole time. Oh yeah, too bad, boss. 240 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 4: But yeah, you know you're working Yeah, well, well underpaid. 241 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 4: So oh yeah, oh yeah. 242 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 3: We had a meeting where they imply that I was 243 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 3: taking too long to schedule. If this was true as 244 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 3: they said it was, why were the nurses calendars always 245 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 3: completed at least one week in advance compared to a 246 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: few days in advance when the original scheduler was working. 247 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: And if it truly does not take as long as 248 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: they say it does, why did they originally have scheduling 249 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 3: be a single full time position. If my scheduling is 250 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 3: not up to their standards, shouldn't they find someone else. 251 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 3: I'm always getting praised on my calendars, and apparently they 252 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 3: always ask the nurses about their schedules as well. They 253 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: said they always hear good things. Why are they questioning 254 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: my schedule when there have been no problems with it 255 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: in the past. Right now, I'm writing my resignation letter 256 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 3: for the second time. Good on. 257 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: You don't need to write it, just update the dates. 258 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're working until this day and then I'm gone. 259 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: Yeah for real, good job, though, dude, that is so 260 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: frustrating you.

That usually isn't how it works, 473 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 2: And the fact that they aren't providing a safe work 474 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 2: environment is grounds for termination of the contract. They're going 475 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 2: to have trouble collecting that from you, no matter what. 476 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: I'd start immediately looking elsewhere.

There was a guy there who also works 513 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: at my company, but in another department. He's friends with 514 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 2: the IT guy, like, real friends hang out at each 515 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 2: other's house on the weekend. Type friends. 516 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 3: Not a good sign for that guy. 517 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 2: So at some point me and him start talking about 518 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: all kinds of random things, and I don't remember exactly 519 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 2: how the conversation went, but he revealed to me that 520 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 2: IT guy thinks that women only ever won attention and 521 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 2: flirt for attention and validation, and that they only ever 522 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: want to play game. It seems he doesn't hold women 523 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 2: in a high regard. 524 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 3: Seems like he is a misogynist. 525 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 2: Yea, and very I've realized if you're around all day 526 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 2: thinking about a woman in a certain way in your head, 527 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 2: not interacting, then it's like you're you're creating these ideas. 528 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 2: And if you don't interact with women on a daily 529 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: basis and you're just talking about them and just ideating, 530 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: and like, I just think if. 531 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 3: You only think about women in romantic or spicy ways, 532 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 3: then you don't actually see women as people. I think 533 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 3: a lot of men view women in that way, and 534 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 3: there's like a lack of respect about women. And I think, 535 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 3: like a lot of guys like don't think that they 536 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 3: could be friends with women. 537 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 2: I thought that way. 538 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that you've learned since then. 539 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: But I think I don't see gender anymore. 540 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 4: That's great, thank you, doctor Riley. 541 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 3: But I think that if you think that you can't 542 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 3: even have like a just friendly relationship with a woman 543 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 3: outside of a romantic or spicy, you know, relationship, then 544 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 3: it's not Yeah, great sign. 545 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,080 Speaker 4: You know, I was gonna say, I've gotten so so 546 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 4: numb to it. I don't even think my girlfriend likes me. 547 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 4: I think she. I think she just wants to be friends. 548 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 3: She just wants to be my. 549 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: Friend, just wants to be paid for food. 550 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wants to play video games all the time. 551 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: I've always been friends with women, but it's like being 552 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: I think whenever I said, like, whenever I think friends, 553 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 2: it's like that close friend, close friends going to coffee 554 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 2: one on one. I would only do that with Sophia 555 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 2: on that I'm like. 556 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 3: I think that that's that's different. But I think that, 557 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 3: like there's a lot of men who don't even think 558 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: that they can have like be friendly with women. 559 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah, it's such a sad life. 560 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 3: Which, Yeah, it's like you can only see women in 561 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: a spicy or romantic sense, then you just don't see 562 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 3: women as people. 563 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 4: Those are the type of guys who are like, oh, 564 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 4: he gets declined by a girl, He's like, ah, whatever, 565 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 4: she probably likes other girls, or like, yeah, she's a thing. 566 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, like immediately putting it on the girl for some 567 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 3: some fault in her. Yep. 568 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: Not only that I found out that this thing he 569 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 2: did to me, he did the exact same thing the 570 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: two other female employees two. 571 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 3: It's awful, but I'm not surprised. 572 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. So the next day I decided 573 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 2: to go talk to them. I wanted to hear what 574 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 2: they thought and how it made them feel and what 575 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 2: and I kind of thought we could team up and 576 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 2: get him reported. But no, both of them basically said, yeah, 577 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 2: it's annoying, but he's harmless. They don't care about it. 578 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's relevant to the story, but 579 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 2: these other two employees, one of them is married and 580 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 2: the other has been in a relationship for six years now. 581 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 2: They're a bit older than me, but still younger than him. 582 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: So now I feel very weird about everything and conflicted. 583 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 2: I feel like perhaps I did overreact since they're nonchalant 584 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 2: about it, and I also feel like if I do 585 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 2: report it, they're going to say that it's not a 586 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 2: big deal and that I'm making a bigger deal out 587 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 2: of it than it actually is. 588 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 4: That's crazy. That's crazy. So they're just okay with it. 589 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 4: I'm literally okay with yeah. 590 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 3: I think if you're in an environment that is not 591 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: supporting you and defending you when you are being harassed, 592 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 3: I think, unfortunately, it sucks because you shouldn't have to 593 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 3: leave this job. Yeah, but it's not a safe environment 594 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 3: for you, and it sucks. 595 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 4: I would still just go to HR. 596 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 3: Absolutely you should go to HR. But if they don't 597 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 3: defend you, and they don't fire this guy or give 598 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 3: him severe consequences, then this is not a place that's 599 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 3: going to protect you. If something worse for it to. 600 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 4: Happen, they're okay with him continuing to act like this, 601 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 4: and god forbid. 602 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: It it's worse. 603 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, huh. I don't know, I guess, and I 604 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 2: feel a bit defeated. I really thought they would be 605 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 2: on my side here, but they're not. It's not that 606 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: they aren't, it's just that they're in a different place. 607 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 2: I think this entire place is toxic. I know that 608 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 2: word is seriously overheused, but I truly believe that even 609 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 2: if I report it, nothing will happen. But yeah, I 610 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 2: don't know. I thought i'd ask anyway if perhaps someone 611 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: has any thoughts or ideas. I just don't know what 612 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: to think, and we have some comments. If you can, 613 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 2: let's go ahead and report it. 614 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, paper trail at the very least, which is what 615 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 3: Kim Roberts says. 616 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 2: That's incredible idea. And if you don't want this happening 617 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 2: to other women in your office, do something about it 618 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 2: for them, protect them. 619 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah maybe those other women didn't protect. 620 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,479 Speaker 4: You, but I think that, you know, just to end 621 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 4: the cycle. 622 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely report it. Don't be cowed into not reporting it. 623 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 2: I'm number one. If this is seriously bothering you and 624 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 2: you don't have an HR to report it, then you 625 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 2: should really start looking for another job. I know you 626 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 2: said you want to be there for two years, but 627 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 2: there's no harm in sending your resume out now, just 628 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 2: do it. If that's the way this guy is, he's 629 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 2: probably a bigoted, a harmless knucklehead. I'd probably ignore, so 630 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 2: I should avoid him as much as possible in the meantime. Hope, 631 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: he says, it's not that I want to be there 632 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 2: for two years. It's that the company funded my studies 633 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,239 Speaker 2: and I'm supposed to either work for them for two 634 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 2: years or pay him back. 635 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 3: That's tough. 636 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: I'm actually considering to just pay him back and leave, 637 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 2: but it's quite a lot of money, so I really 638 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: have a lot to think about. But yeah, I'm definitely 639 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 2: trying to ignore him. It sucks that he lives so 640 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: close to me. Since he's realized that live so close toge, 641 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 2: I've been seeing him a lot more in the area. 642 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: And now I think it's like police. He's talking you. 643 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 2: I would definitely reformat your computer. Every time I see 644 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: him walk around or see his car, I run hide 645 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 2: until he goes away. I know that sounds super pathetic, 646 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 2: but I just have so much anxiety surrounding him right now. 647 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 2: It's crazy. That's it, my boy. 648 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 3: Oh, to be clear, you are not being super pathetic. 649 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 3: You feel that you are in danger because he is 650 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 3: putting you in danger. He is activating that fight or 651 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 3: flight response because he is harassing you. You're not overreacting. 652 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 3: You were having a fear response to something that is scary, 653 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 3: which is a man who is older than you and 654 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 3: has some sort of power in the company and that 655 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 3: you know has allowed him to get away with this. 656 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 2: And is a keyboard wizard. 657 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 3: I guess, so he is doing something that is inappropriate 658 00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: and it's just not okay. So you're not of reacting. 659 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 3: If there is anybody in your job that you can 660 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 3: talk to about this who has a little bit more 661 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 3: authority than you know the people that you have talked about, 662 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 3: please do report him, even if you don't have an HR. 663 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 2: Do you guys have any similar like situations or stories. 664 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: Have you been in a soccer situation? 665 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 4: Keon, No, not that I know work. 666 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 3: Not a workspace where I was like harassed. I've never 667 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 3: never heard that. 668 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 2: Yum, I have.

In the comments, an Opie says we 695 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,959 Speaker 3: are sappy and annoying and blah blah blah. He's planning 696 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 3: on proposing in twenty twenty five. I've seen big statements 697 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 3: of him paying off the ring and he asked my 698 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: sister for permission to marry me since I don't have 699 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 3: any parents anymore. Oh, we're both kind of limited in 700 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 3: our friendships. I have a few friends I see sometimes, 701 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 3: and so does he, but mostly we just want to 702 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 3: be alone together, play in video games or whatever. Him especially, 703 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 3: he rarely sees any of his friends. He is maybe three, 704 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 3: and he sees each of them maybe once a year, 705 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 3: and he likes it that way. I try to encourage 706 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 3: him to go out whenever there's an opportunity, because having 707 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 3: separation is healthy. But according to his family, he has 708 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 3: always found it hard to connect with others and just 709 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 3: prefers to be alone until he met me. Now he 710 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 3: just wants to be alone with me. One of his 711 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 3: friends is not my favorite person. 712 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 4: Oh. 713 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 3: I won't go into details because it's not my choice 714 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 3: who he connects with, and honestly, I'm just glad he 715 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 3: connects with someone enough to consider them a friend. He's 716 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 3: mailed twenty six openly by, which never really meant anything 717 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 3: to me until recently, because I'm also by and I 718 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 3: know firsthand that it doesn't define you as a person 719 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 3: and shouldn't be the first thing you think of a person. Anyway. 720 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 3: He and my boyfriend went to school together in the 721 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 3: fourth grade, but they weren't friends until over ten years 722 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 3: later when they happened to get the same job. They 723 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 3: were work friends, but never hung out outside of work 724 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 3: until I encouraged my boyfriend to accept his invitation to 725 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 3: hang out. It never happened again, and every time he 726 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 3: was asked to hang out again, my boyfriend would insist 727 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 3: that I joined them. He was very clear from the 728 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 3: second I met him that he didn't like me. For 729 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 3: almost four years, I have completely ignored his obvious distaste 730 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 3: of me and have still encouraged my boyfriend to hang 731 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 3: out with him and talk to him. I'm confident in 732 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 3: my place in life, and if his friend could somehow 733 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 3: make my boyfriend not like me, then he's not the 734 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 3: one for me. My boyfriend is also ignored that his 735 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 3: friend doesn't like me. He just kind of changes the 736 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: subject or doesn't engage and moves on, which he doesn't 737 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,479 Speaker 3: have to do often because he doesn't talk to him 738 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 3: anymore than three times a year. Anyway. The other day, 739 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: his friend called my boyfriend at around midnight. He answered 740 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 3: and told him that I was there and that he 741 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 3: was on speaker. He said hi, and then talked about 742 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 3: how miserable he was to be alone in life. He 743 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 3: talked about how he just fills the board in his 744 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: life with mindless, spicy sleep and booze, and was happy 745 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 3: to see him happy, but hated that it was because 746 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 3: of me. Then he finally admitted it out loud. He 747 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 3: said that he hated me when we first met, that 748 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 3: I seem like a witch, and that he didn't think 749 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 3: I was right for my boyfriend my boyfriend, and I 750 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 3: just stayed completely silent, stunned. 751 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 2: Oh he wants your boyfriend. 752 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 3: That's that's pretty obvious. 753 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 2: Or he wants you Not really sure here, but he's 754 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 2: what you guys have. The boyfriend that's crazy.

I don't think he knew that he 763 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 3: was To be clear, I think he said it said 764 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 3: he called at midnight and the boyfriend put it on speaker. 765 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I would never have the balls and say that. 766 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,959 Speaker 2: It is like, dude, that is whackledoodle do? What does 767 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 2: he try? What's he trying to get out of this? Though? 768 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 3: That's hope he's boyfriend. He continued to talk, saying he 769 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: gets that he chose me, and that he has grown 770 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 3: to not hate me, just dislike me, and that I 771 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 3: only matter as much as my boyfriend likes me. That 772 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 3: when we break up, I'll be completely passed away to 773 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 3: him and he will go back to hating me for 774 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 3: wasting my boyfriend's time. That was incredibly rude, but also strange. 775 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 3: The way he worded it just seemed odd like he 776 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 3: was possessive of my boyfriend. Yes, he's in love with 777 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 3: your boyfriend. 778 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 2: And he is in love with your boyfriend, Fluella.
