Yeah, I want 485 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 1: to stomp you into the dirt. 486 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 2: Like honestly, you know, some competition is is kind of good. 487 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 2: It raises you both to a good level, but it 488 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 2: doesn't Cassandra Le says, don't do it together. That's a 489 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: good way to get your money's stolen to Yeah, I agree. 490 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 2: Lesbie Bo Titaz says partnering does not sound like a 491 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 2: good idea. I think we agree, but let's get back 492 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: into the story. So my room, he mentioned to me 493 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 2: what she saw, and I had to say I agreed 494 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: with his viewpoint. She was stealing my ideas. Now. I 495 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 2: know there's no law that says she couldn't do this, 496 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 2: but it was definitely something a true friend would never do. 497 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: I also had zero proof, as all the conversations we 498 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: had discussing it were in person, and I had not 499 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 2: been suspicious enough to record any of the conversations because 500 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: that would have been weird and toxic. When she came 501 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 2: out with identical products to what I had told her 502 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 2: I was going to sell. I decided that I didn't 503 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 2: want to be friends with her anymore and quietly deleted 504 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: her from all my social media and thought that it 505 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: would just wash away in time. So it sounds like 506 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: she's completely distancing herself. Well, I was wrong. Oh. She 507 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: decided to message me and asked what happened. When I 508 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: explained it to her, she had the audacity to tell 509 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 2: me we never discussed anything of the sort and that 510 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 2: I was just jealous of her and started to put 511 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 2: me down and call me names. So I blocked her 512 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 2: after saying some not so nice things to return. That's 513 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: when she got Calvin to call my roommate. Calvin is 514 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 2: like the boyfriend, to which he didn't answer, and I 515 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 2: thought that would be the end of it. But my 516 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 2: roommate started to get anonymous phone calls at two thirty 517 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: in the morning while we were asleep. We'd hear breathing 518 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 2: and laughing in the background, so we hung up and 519 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 2: they called back immediately. We hung up, and they called 520 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 2: the police and reported her number because she was stupid 521 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 2: enough to not block the number. They said they would 522 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 2: talk to her and the phone call stopped. After all 523 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 2: that I decided to leave her business an honest, bad 524 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 2: review and shared my story across social media, to which 525 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: she responded by messaging me from our business page to 526 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 2: tell me to take it down and if I didn't, 527 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 2: she was going to sue me for defamation of character 528 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 2: and harassment. Truth be told, though, the review was on 529 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 2: the products and how she had done little to no 530 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 2: research and development and was selling things that were not 531 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 2: fully thought out, and I made that very clear as 532 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 2: well as left a link on my side of the story. 533 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 2: So basically, OP is like fully putting this person raging. Yeah, yeah, ragging, 534 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 2: but honestly to deserve that maybe worth it. Yeah. I 535 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: never got a call from the police about the supposed 536 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 2: defamation harassment, as I believe I was within my rights 537 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 2: to write that review. She tried tirelessly to have my 538 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 2: review removed by getting all of her friends and family 539 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 2: leave fake reviews for her products and services. I am 540 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: also disabled and get money from the government for my disability, 541 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 2: and she called them making false, bold accusations to try 542 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 2: to get me in trouble and disqualify me for my 543 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: disability payment by telling them lies. So not only is 544 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 2: she stealing your business, but she's stealing your livelihood. Wow, 545 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 2: that was the final straw. I decided to be petty 546 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: and do the exact same thing to her. I called 547 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 2: her employer and told them she was using information they 548 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 2: had taught her to offer on her own website. I 549 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 2: told them the website address and her full name and 550 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 2: found it out a few months later on LinkedIn that 551 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 2: she mysteriously started another job at another cannabis company next month. 552 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 2: So am I the a hole for getting my ex 553 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 2: friend fired from her job? 554 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 3: Okay? So breaking it down like the friend. 555 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: The most virtual virtuous path is like, I'm just gonna, yeah, 556 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: let this rock and not engage with this person anymore. 557 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 2: But she did get her. 558 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 5: Fired and then try to get her get rid of 559 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 5: her disability payments. 560 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, well the friend friend, you know what, 561 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: go for it? 562 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 3: Like I'm gonna say, not the a hole. 563 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 2: Okay, but so John John sometimes says go for it. 564 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: But then when I ask him this question, he changes 565 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 2: answer would you do it? 566 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: The real answer would I do it? 567 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? I was like, what is this dis questions? 568 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 3: No, do it? 569 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: I would just move on and live my life. 570 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 6: Find a new idea. If you've got all those great ideas. 571 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, probably, I don't think, well, do I think it's 572 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: an a hole move too? Well, the friend was doing 573 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 2: something that was in violation of the company. It is petty. 574 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 2: So I think there's a little bit of pettiness. There's 575 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: some pettiness. I would maybe go all the way to 576 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: a whole, but it is like, uh, there's a there's 577 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: a there's there's a tinge of pettiness. Yes, but and 578 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 2: I also think by going after this person in their job, 579 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 2: like it could blow back where the friend tries to 580 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 2: sabotage her life. And I think you can get into 581 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 2: a sabotage yeah. And so like you don't necessarily want 582 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: to get in a place where you have an arch nemesis, 583 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 2: you know, I don't see arch nemesis. You know makes 584 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 2: as fun. It's fun and you like it. 585 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 3: But this doesn't sound fun. 586 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 2: This doesn't sound fun. 587 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 3: It sounds not fun. 588 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, And going to the the chat, Oh no, it's 589 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 2: Lizzie Joe says. She went after op oh bets are off, 590 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 2: that's right, Mariam says, because she was literally about to 591 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 2: get her disability money money taken away. Yeah,
