25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 3: up a little bit further from when I went to

26
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 3: bed and had nightmares all night long, like I was

27
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 3: trapped in the night of the Museum movie, and I

28
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 3: kept waking up, like you have those nightmares, of those

29
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 3: dreams that are so real that you like wake up

30
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 3: out of the dead sleep and you have to wonder

31
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 3: was it really real or not? Right?

32
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love and hate those Yeah.

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly. So that kept happening all night long. I

34
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 3: would wake up and freak out and then get back

35
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: to bed and my dream would pick well, my nightmare

36
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: would pick right back up where it left off. So

37
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 3: I yeah, it's great, you know, happy Monday to me.

38
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 3: So I get up after my last nightmare and I'm like, okay,

39
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 3: I'm just getting I got to get to work early anyway,

40
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: try to finish this report. How am I going to

41
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 3: get it done? YadA, YadA, YadA. I roll out of

42
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 3: bed and feel that warm, squishy substance under your foot

43
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: that is like you're stepping on a pile of noodles,

44
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 3: and I'm still not awake, and I'm like, what the

45
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 3: hell is that? And I'm thinking, well, maybe it's just

46
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 3: part of the namemare. Maybe I'm really not awake yet.

47
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 3: So I reached down and grab this conglomeration of hair

48
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 3: and vomit and cat spit deep into my hand, make

49
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 3: it to the bathroom, brush it down the toilet, washing

50
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: my feet. But now I'm getting in the shower and

51
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 3: I'm even more stressed out because I have this report due.

52
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 3: I'm having to spend ten extra minutes cleaning my carpet

53
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 3: from where the cap vomited. And uh, okay, it was there.

54
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 4: It was everywhere, and I don't know a place that

55
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 4: it wasn't, Tim Tim Tim Daniel is she's throwing up

56
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 4: in the trash car.

57
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 5: I have cats down, but I've never reached down to

58
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 5: grab it.

59
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 3: Oh my, I'm telling you I was not like I said.

60
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 3: I wasn't. Only I thought I was still maybe asleep,

61
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 3: trapped in this nightmare. But it wasn't a nightmare.

62
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 4: What's worstim, if it's if it's hot or warm cat

63
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 4: hairball vomit you step on, or if it's cold because

64
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: it's been there all night.

65
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: You know, I'm gonna say, And it's worse that's it's

66
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 3: hot or warm, because if it's cold, then you then

67
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: you had time to congeal a little bit.

68
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 4: The worst is if.

69
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 5: They do it in the place that you don't know

70
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 5: the hair ball and you and you don't know they

71
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 5: did it and you find it days later. It's this

72
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 5: crusty thing.

73
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 4: Just there that Well, now that we've run all of

74
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 4: our listeners off, let's get back to the story. So, so,

75
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 4: now that you've tried to get yourself together and you

76
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: rush to work as you have this report, do you

77
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 4: decided to use chat GPT?

78
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 3: I thought about it. I thought about it, and I

79
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 3: was trying to look up a company policy on using

80
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 3: AI at our workplace, and I couldn't quite nail it down.

81
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 3: There is so we have a pretty tight policy against it.

82
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 3: The only thing we're allowed to use is uh, Microsoft Copilot,

83
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: and that was that wasn't going to get me anywhere.

84
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 3: I mean, I thought if I had time to just

85
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 3: you know, maybe whip it up real quick on chat GPT,

86
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 3: I would it would save me. But I just said,

87
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: hell of And just I've been sitting down going through

88
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 3: it and sending off the emails of why hasn't this

89
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: been sent? You know this was do at seven am? Well, yeah, yes, yes,

90
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 3: I'm quite well aware of that.

91
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 4: Actually, I bet I bet Tim if you told them

92
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 4: the cat hairball vomit story, that would probably get you

93
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 4: buy you some time.

94
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 3: Do you think you know in today's day and age,

95
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 3: that's got to be the substitute for the doggate the

96
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 3: homework I was, I mean, don't know any other way

97
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 3: around it.

98
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 2: How did you get through this?

99
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: So I absolutely I pushed myself back from my desk

100
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 3: for a while and just started basically hysterically laughing, like comically,

101
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 3: like so overwhelmed that you know, it just becomes a comedy.

102
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 3: It becomes a sketch show at that point where you know,

103
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 3: you you reach and you grip and you claw so

104
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: hard to you know, to do everything you've got to

105
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 3: get done. And then it just comes to a point

106
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 3: where I think you realize, hey, look this isn't going

107
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: to happen, and like the comedian or the comedy part

108
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 3: in me takes over and it just makes me laugh.

109
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 3: And I've just been laughing like the last twenty minutes,

110
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 3: like what a day. You know, not only is it Monday,

111
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: but this is how it started and this is how

112
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 3: it's going. I mean, I'm just ready for the next

113
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 3: big adventure today. I'm just gonna keep a smile on

114
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: my face and try to roll through it. That's all

115
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 3: I can do.

116
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I see, you know, just been the wheels of

117
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 4: bodily fluids.

118
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 2: Let's see what you're gonna step on next.

119
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: I guess yeah, I love.

120
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 4: That though, you know, you do have to just stop

121
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 4: and laugh sometimes, even if even if there's blood spurting

122
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 4: across the room and you've got a juggular, you know

123
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:38,559
Speaker 4: what I'm saying.

124
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 3: Sometimes Yeah, yeah, I mean sometimes it's just a mere

125
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 3: flesh loan exactly. I mean, you know, a great coworker

126
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 3: of mine told me an awesome saying that we actually

127
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 3: posted in our cubicle of last week, and it says

128
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 3: our problems are only as big as we make them.

129
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,799
Speaker 3: And I tell you, you know, I guess if stepping

130
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 3: on a cat hairball and being late on an expense

131
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 3: report is my biggest problem in twenty twenty five, it's

132
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 3: not really that big of a problem, is it, you know.

133
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 3: I mean it's first world problems.

134
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 4: Actually, you know, I think it's an excellent way of

135
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 4: looking at it. I mean, shouldn't we all be a

136
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 4: little more like Tim when we get pissed off? We

137
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 4: get pissed off at these little things? Yeah, gandhi, what

138
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 4: I just we've.

139
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 6: All had a pet and you hear that sound in

140
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 6: the middle of the night, and you shoot up the

141
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 6: fact that you did not wake up while the cat

142
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 6: was hairball puking next to you, like it's very serious

143
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 6: and points to the fact that your nightmare must have

144
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 6: been horrible. So you really did get screwed on like every.

145
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: Level this morning.

146
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 3: Absolutely. I mean not only did I have the mummy

147
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 3: attack in me, I had Dracula biting me. I had

148
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 3: I got stabbed by some sort of unicorn horn after

149
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 3: the Mummy broke out of the tomb and knocked over

150
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 3: a big statue. It was crazy, It was crazy. It

151
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: was like this all night long.

152
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: You have huge, wonderful dreams and nightmares. I want those.

153
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,880
