9
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: because of me. Dear Stephen Shirley. My best friend worked

10
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: as a bartender at a popular restaurant and she introduced

11
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: me to the new manager of the restaurant recently. He's

12
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: middled aged, handsome, tall, and he has a nice beard.

13
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: I was hooked on him because of how well he

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: carried himself, and I've always been attracted to older men.

15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 1: This restaurant has the best Sunday brunch and I'm always

16
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: there with my bottomless mimosas and a few of my

17
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: girlfriends of my other girlfriends. There's always a great DJ

18
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: there and on this particular Sunday, I've been the mimosas

19
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: all afternoon. I stayed on the dance floor twerking and

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: having a good time. I locked eyes with the manager

21
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: a couple of times while I was dancing, so I

22
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: figured he was interested in me and liked what he saw.

23
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: So when I went to the restroom, I walked past

24
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: him and asked him if he saw something he liked

25
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: because I caught him staring. He told me that I'm

26
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: a beautiful woman, but I've had too much to drink

27
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: and he's not serving me any more alcohol. I was

28
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: embarrassed that he only saw me as a drunk thought

29
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: unlike my friends, I can handle my liquor and I

30
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: was having a great time and being playful. Something clicked

31
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: in me and I started cursing him out from misjudging

32
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: me and being rude. He asked my best friend to

33
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: come over and call me down and put me out.

34
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: She tried to diffuse the situation, but then the manager

35
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: said I'm a disgrace to women my age. My friend

36
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: told him that his rudeness was uncalled for, and he

37
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: fired her right then and there. He put us both out.

38
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: The job was great extra income for her because of

39
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: the great tips on Sundays. She's upset with me and

40
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how to fix this. Please help yeah,

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: this is a real mess right here. You made your

42
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: girl lose her job. Did you say something clicked in

43
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: you and you started cursing him out. But you say

44
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: you can handle your liquor. None of that goes together, okay,

45
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: because here's a news flash for you. You can't handle

46
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: your liquor. What clicked in you was drunk. Okay, you

47
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: were drunk. You were just displaying drunk behavior. And despite

48
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: the fact that you think you can handle your liquor,

49
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: you can't. You really can't. So the first thing I

50
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: would do is stop drinking. Okay, you gotta stop because

51
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: you can't handle it. Then I would apologize to my friend.

52
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: I really would. This is your best friend. You should

53
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: apologize because you were acting up in her place of business. Okay.

54
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 1: Then I would go and apologize and talk to her

55
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: former boss. Please be sober when you do this. I mean,

56
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: nothing may come of this, but you got to try

57
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: and talk to him. It talked him into giving your

58
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: friend her job back, you know, saying that it was

59
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: it was your fault, you know. Blah blah blah blah blah.

60
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: That doesn't work. You help her look for another job.

61
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the least you could do. When she

62
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: gets another job, Please you stay as far away from

63
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: it as possible. Okay, do not go anywhere near it,

64
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: you know, and stop drinking. All right, Steve, my best

65

110
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: let's recap today's strawberry letter. My best he got fired

111
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: because of me? Yeah, best friend worked at the bar.

112
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: This girl's got a girl friendless barton at a popular restaurant,

113
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: introduced to the new manager. She liked the manager. He's older, tall,

114
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: way to wear his cab himself. And you know she

115
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: always been like attracted to older men. Uh, this particular sunday,

116
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: they got the best brunch ever. And they have right

117
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: off the top of where she pointed, a really excellent brunch.

118
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: And she said, on this particular Sunday, I'm always there

119
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: with my bottomless mimosas, which means she cares about drinking

120
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: to the point where there is no end. This is

121
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: bottomless drink. I drink till I can't even pull it

122
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: in my mouth nor more. She pulled a drinking and

123
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: it's just running down the cracks of her mouth, all

124
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: of her blucause she just can't putting yeah, because she

125
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: can't pull the more down there. It's but see, the

126
00:07:54,480 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: the mimosas might be bottomless, but sure you're your your

127
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: intake of them is not. And so what happened was

128
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: this particular Sunday, she had been on the Mimosas all afternoon.

129
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: We said this earlier. When you are owned something that's successive,

130
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: you own crack. I was down there talking to them.

131
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: I was cussing them out our own one. You know,

132
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: when you own something that's your accessive. So I was

133
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: on the Mimosas all afternoon. I stayed on the dance

134
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: floor twerking and have a good a good time. Twerking

135
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: is for other people. Tworking is not for you, because

136
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: I didn't know that twerking is not for the twerker.

137
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: It's for the twerky. It's for the perpon who sees it.

138
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: Because you can't even see your ass doing all that.

139
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: But if you had mirror, you can, Yeah, you bout

140
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: the mirror but the mirror ain't on the dance floor,

141
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: so it's you looking. No, no, you. The only reason

142
00:08:54,720 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: you're looking back there is to see who looking, not

143
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: for you. It's for the not twerker, but the twerku key,

144
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: So let me give it to you, because watch what

145
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: happens right next. I stayed on Dance for Twerking to

146
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: Heaven because I locked eyes with the manager a couple

147
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: of times while I was dancing slash Twerking, so I

148
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: figured he was interested in me and liked what he saw.

149
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 1: Twerking is folk showing tworking, not a dance. It's an

150
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: exhibition tippity. You're right about that. So when I went

151
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: to the restaurantom, I walked past him in after he

152
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: saw something he liked because I called him stand. He

153
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,679
