Well, I 0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:17.479 thought it'd be funny. I put a photop at boom 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:18.479 and I said, what do I do with it? 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:20.760 Because that's funny relatable. 0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:22.839 But I feel like mum's feel and dads would feel 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.319 like that with their normal kids. Yeah. 0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:26.200 I don't really call my kids an it, but I 0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:29.040 mean I don't know what to do with me sometimes.

Something has ripped 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:37.760 through our household. There is an epidemic that is happening, 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:39.759 and ground zero is the Johnson household. 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:42.760 It's no good times. Let's get face masks on.

I'm not 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:06.760 impressed by it.

Now we go, ladies. 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:17.799 Something that you know that I'm very passionate about that. 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:20.080 I want to talk about today is the story of 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:24.440 Joshua Taylor Miles. He's a junior Crinella Sharks player NRL 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:28.960 player who has two of the most horrific tattoos a 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.200 text aside the message that they that they portray aside 0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:34.400 horrific looking tatoos on his quads. 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.040 These tattoos like ugly tattoos anyway, No, it's what they say. 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:39.640 They're horrible. They're really bad tattoos. 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:41.480 So the tattoos on his on his left side, on 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.720 his left thigh says each shit and then it's a 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:47.160 gay slur, a slur against gay people, the F slur. 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.040 I'm not on to say it because I think it's disgusting. 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.600 On the other leg, it says snort lines and f. 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:52.560 The F word. 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:53.800 So he's full of class. 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.400 Oh yeah, he's a class, classy twenty three year old kid. Play. 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.520 I mean it's three in sans seraph, So that does 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:00.200 scream a bit of class, doesn't it? 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.840 Where it does. If it was comic sands, I'd be 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:02.679 vomiting in my mouth. 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:05.280 If it was general italics, man, I mean, listen, it's horrific, 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:05.880 is what it is. 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:09.640 Jokes aside disgusting tattoos. I'm a gay man. I've got 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.560 a boyfriend. I also live in Cronulla. I'm a Cronella boy. 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:15.359 My dad is an ex Coronella Sharks player, played for 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.040 the Cornela Sharks reserve team like thirty years ago, and 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.560 now I live right around the corner from the SHARKI stadium, 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.679 so this hits really close to home. Let me read 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.280 what the Cronella Sharks or the Junior NRL squad said. 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:28.480 They said, the NSW NRL and Cronella Junior are committed 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.120 to providing a safe, fund and inclusive environment for all people. 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:33.480 So what we've asked Josh to do is cover the 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:35.240 tattoos up or will ban him? 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:37.280 So cover the tattoos up and he can keep playing. 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.920 Mitch, how do you feel about that as being an 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.960 adequate response to this? Because I know how much this 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.720 affects you and how when you saw this, what that 0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:48.920 net like, what that did for you and what they 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.440 did to you. What does covering it up like? 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:52.080 Is that enough? 0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:55.000 I had a visceral reaction to this. It angered me, 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.200 like deeply angered me. First of all, the way we 0:03:57.240 --> 0:04:01.080 found out about these tattoos was the Junior Shark's Instagram 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.119 page posted it at a professional photoshoot. 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:04.120 Of them playing. 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:07.320 They post tattoo showing with the tattoo showing. Obviously they 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.440 didn't see it, they didn't notice. But the fact that 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:12.520 that that slur was posted to their Instagram without anybody 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:14.320 knowing tells me there's not a gay man that works 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.080 in the NRL on the Cnolic Show. 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:19.760 But also, I don't believe that it could be possible 0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:23.000 for that entire team to not know what was written 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:24.839 on his legs, for the coach to not know what 0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:28.560 was written on his legs. He's always wearing shorts and 0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:30.800 it's very visible what has been written. It's not like 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:33.159 this is small. This covers hit the entirety of the 0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:33.800 front of his thigh. 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.880 So here's the thing goes deeper. So he's gone to 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:37.680 Barley and he's got the tattoos covered up. So he 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.360 sat down with the management at Junior Sharki's and they've 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:41.680 said cover it up and you can play. 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:43.960 He's gone to Bali to rub it in. 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.159 He's documented the whole process on Instagram stories of covering, 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.120 covering them up. He's got I don't even I don't 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:50.640 even know what he's covered up with. There's an eyeball 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:52.640 and there's a bear and shut like he's got full. 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.120 Now it's like a Viking and a bear. 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.160 Yeah, full full quad tattoos. 0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.320 It is covered up, he posted on his Insta story 0:04:58.520 --> 0:04:59.720 Gone but not forgotten. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.960 I think this is so completely disgusting. And I know 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.919 that if you worked in any other workplace, if you 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.960 rocked up with a visible tattoo that was discriminatory in 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:13.039 any way about race, religion, sexuality, it doesn't matter, you 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.040 would lose your job for that. And I think that 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.840 we make so many allowances for people who work in 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.320 the sporting world because we see them as icons. It's like, 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.040 if you can throw a ball and you're really good 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:25.920 at sport, you can get away with so many things 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:28.960 that other people are not given the allowances on. But 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:30.800 also in this, I mean, we all remember back in 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:33.599 twenty nineteen Israel p Filao he lost his four million 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:37.080 dollar contract because he had posted very publicly on social 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:40.000 media that hell was a place for gay people or 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:41.920 something to that effect. I don't wait to quote exactly, 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.680 but that's what it was about. And he doubled down 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:46.560 on this, and I think that this is the same thing. 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:48.599 Because he's doubled down the thing that he posted on 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.400 Instagram saying gone but not forgotten. It means that even 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:53.200 though yes, he might have covered the tattoos, he still 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.080 holds those values. He still believes very strongly in the 0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:59.640 things that he's posting and whether or not we like it, 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:03.000 people who play in professional sport in Australia, they are 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.720 they are role models, they are icons, they get influences. 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:07.760 He's a father, yeah, and him is a father. He's 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.320 got a son that would. 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.960 Totally him having these views. It allows other people to 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:14.080 hold those views, and it makes it okay for other 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:15.080 people to say those things. 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.719 Or as a gay person, it scares me. You know, 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.000 I don't think I've told you girls this. A month ago, 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:21.680 two months ago, I don't know. I was in Cronella 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:23.680 with my boyfriend Stephen getting ice cream. It was like 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:26.920 nine pm. I was called the slur on the street 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.000 of Cronella by a bunch of boys walking out of 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:31.280 Northey's Pub. Now, I know, Kernella and all these doesn't 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.800 have a reputation for being the most inclusive place, but 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.480 I've been born and raised in Cronella. I'm eating ice 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.760 cream with my boyfriend. I'm harming nobody, and I get 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.160 called a slur and I'm a big, strong boy. I 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.440 can cop that right. But I mean, you say that 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.280 to a young queer boy, a boy that doesn't even 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:48.160 know his identity. 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:49.560 I mean about where. 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:51.560 You are strong enough to copp it. It's about the 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:53.040 fact that you shouldn't have to be in a position 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:55.159 to be strong enough to cop it. You know. 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:56.960 That's why, Well, that's why I think I think he 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.920 should be stood down immediately. If I came to work 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.840 with a shirt on that had any slur about any 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:05.760 different minority group or any person that's different to the norm, 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:07.719 I'd be fired on the spot. I think he should 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:09.520 be fired because if that is what he's happy to 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.160 promote on his body, imagine what he says behind closed doors. 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:13.760 As someone that grew up with their dad playing for 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:15.800 the Kronela Sharks, you grew up in Cronola, they are 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.000 your team. How do you feel now knowing that something 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:20.680 that you supported doesn't support you. 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.360 It's hurtful. It's so deeply hurtful. 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:26.440 And if you know, I mean, it's so the natural 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.679 response is to say sackam you know, like it's easy, 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:30.960 but it's genuinely how I feel. Unless he can sit 0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:32.520 face to face with me or members of the queer 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:34.680 community and tell us why he feels like that way, 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.120 I want to I'd love to know why. I'd love 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:39.240 to know what thought process this guy had when he 0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:41.080 sat down, how he was, however old he was and 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:44.120 got these tattoo on his body, because I mean, it's scary. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.920 Excuse me anyway, All right, let's got a break back 0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:47.880 after this on the pickup. 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:52.800 Have you seen in the news that Gastro is currently 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:54.120 at a twenty year high? 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:55.920 What good for Gastro? Wow? 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:58.680 I usually you'd congratulate that, right, like shares around at 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.080 all time, like Gastro is. There has never been more 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.080 gastro in Australia than what they currently do. 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:03.960 We not have anything. 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:09.200 Inflation's high, gas price is high, food high, Gastro price. 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:10.840 Well, let me tell you, I don't need to read 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:12.680 the news to know that Gastro is at an all 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.680 time high because Gastro has absolutely ripped through the Johnson household. 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:21.200 But the thing is, though, also I'm thinking, you're really 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:21.640 close to. 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.400 Me, no, because apparently it's this random it's this random 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:27.320 strain of gastro. Right, it's like this like parasite gastro 0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:30.320 that's only attacking young kids. So both my kids and 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:33.960 Australia has no cure animals, but Kulla children gastro, we 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:38.160 got it all. They were like surprisingly like both my kids, 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:41.440 Marley and Lola five three, they're in it like surprisingly 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:43.720 good spirits considering. So like all of a sudden, one 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:45.040 of them will have a vomit and then they're like, 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:47.120 let's go outside and play and then they like run 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:48.880 to the toilet for a bout of gastro. Right, they 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.320 feel good because it's like an exorcism. Yeah, they're getting 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:55.640 it all, and then they're back to normal, Let's go 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.960 play with some lego. So it really has hit an 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:03.400 all time high. And like I you guys don't have kids, 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:05.920 so like it's really hard. I think to imagine what 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.400 it's like taking care of a child that's like full 0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:09.280 gastro baby. 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:11.120 So Lola's had it the worst. 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.680 And last night I had this real moment where it 0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:17.040 was three o'clock in the morning and I was like, ah, 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:20.679 this is the real lows of parenting. So every night 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:22.559 she comes in and she gets into bed with us, right, 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:24.240 she sleeps in my bed. She usually comes in at 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.880 about three in the morning, four in the morning, and 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:30.920 she either no right every day night. I haven't slept 0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.719 for five years, guys. So she she'll either cry from 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:36.080 her bedroom or she'll make her way to our bedroom 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.600 and come by the bed. But she'll always be like 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.480 a little bit wingy. So I wake up and she's 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.600 right next to the bed and she's like mummy, and 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.240 I rolled like rolled over and I was like sweetie, 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:48.160 and I picked her up in my arms and I 0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:50.079 pulled her into the bed and I got her into 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:51.920 the bed. So she's like up on the mattress with 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:54.200 me and in my arms, and she goes, I let 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.960 my nappy, and I was like, oh baby. I was like, 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.520 don't worry, like everyone has accidents. So then as she 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:05.719 said it, I was like, stop, don't. She did not 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.520 wet her nappy. It was in fact not we She 0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.280 had gas strode from her neck to her toes. 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:13.600 She was like a softy. 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:17.839 She was full of poo like I'm talking. 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.840 All through her onesie. 0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:22.240 I had to hand her downcause go up to the 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:26.200 neck because because I get it, I've never pooed my neck. 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:31.120 It's so watery that like the nappy can't actually contain 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.120 it because there's so much volume. So you've got to 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:34.920 imagine like you're laying down and you've got like a 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.920 onesie on, so it just spreads out throughout. So it was. 0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:39.880 Literally down to her ankles and up to her neck. 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:41.240 So I had to like strip her in the shower 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.320 at three o'clock in the morning, hosing her down. 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:44.280 She's crying. 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.240 There was gastro in my bed, in her bed, on 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:50.240 my sheets or my pillow. I cannot There was not 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:51.640 one part of my house it's not been. 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.400 Covered with this. Wake him up. 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:55.839 He's got the cold. So he's been asleep for the 0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:58.559 class three days. So he's got the cold. 0:10:58.600 --> 0:10:59.040 The cold. 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:01.560 I'm so sick. I thought he had COVID. I took 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:03.719 him home one of those real fancy COVID tests. That's 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:07.640 got RSB flu covid negative. He just has men flux except. 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:08.520 For baby killing gastra. 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.720 If only he had, I said to Laura, every time 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:14.200 I think I'm getting close to wanting a child, she 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:17.000 pushes me right back down. She pulls the legs up 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:19.000 from underneath me, and I'm like, oh, yeah, no, I'm 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:20.960 not there Okay, let me say the obligatory thing that 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:25.160 every parent always says. I love I do well. I 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:26.080 don't love ship reader. 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:31.280 Shit, it's actually impressive to be honest. If she did. 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:32.600 Look, if you're going to do it, do it well, 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:35.960 because what I have to say. Oh, guys, funny story. 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:39.240 Imagine coining sick. Don't either of you do this because 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:40.960 I need both of you. Imagine coining sick and then 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.160 getting sprung by your boss. That is what has happened 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:44.360 to one girl. I'm going to tell you about it 0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:45.160 after the break. 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:46.640 Worst nightmare that's next on the pickup. 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.000 Hey, guys, give us a call if you have ever 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:53.520 been caught out in a lie. 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.760 Because this one girl. 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:57.400 She's twenty three. Her name is Grace, and I think 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:58.840 I sort of feel for her. I don't know which 0:11:58.840 --> 0:11:59.800 way I feel yet. 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.959 So sure, let's unpack it together. 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.480 Well, because I say, the poor young girl. But also 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:07.600 she did lie to a boss, so I don't know 0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:09.720 where I am on the fence. So she's twenty three, 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:14.360 she works between Europe, Ballei and Australia. I think like 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:17.880 she sort of freelancers for this company. Anyway, she called 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.720 in sick to her boss. She said she had a 0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:22.760 doctor's appointment on a Friday and she couldn't make it 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.680 because she wanted. As someone who employs people, there is 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:27.800 nothing worse than when people call in sick on a 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.440 Friday or after a long weekend. Yeah. 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:32.680 Really, and it's going to be Friday, right, It's because 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:34.280 they want the long weekend. That's when it's going to happen. 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:35.240 Yeah, it's annoying. 0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:38.000 Yeah, oh god, it's the rich. So hang on. 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:41.800 It's a Friday. The poor girl, Grace has a doctor's appointment. 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:43.920 So she says, so sorry, I can't make it work, 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:47.800 got dog's appointment. She's in the line at the airport 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:50.560 to fly to Ballei, so that's where she was going. 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:51.600 She wasn't going to dost appointment. 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.559 She's going for a getaway to Bali. 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:54.920 Just for the weekend. Was she going to be at 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:56.560 work on Monday? Or she played on having gas stro 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:57.160 for the whole week. 0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:58.560 She might have had the next week off or something. 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.400 I don't know. I just know that she lied about 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:01.840 it and went to the airport. And when she was 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:04.080 in the line to the airport, she sees someone walking 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:05.800 towards her and she's like that face looks familiar, and 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:07.880 she's like, oh no, and then he calls out a 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:12.600 name and it's her boss. Her boss just so happened, 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.720 like what other odds, Her boss just so happened to 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:18.800 go to Bali the same day, the same flight, the 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.000 same plane, everything, and just stood there and saw it. 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:22.280 He went up to her. They had a chat. 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.320 Luckily, they actually started laughing about it, which I think, like, 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:28.240 hats off to that boss. 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:31.520 Now he's laughing, and then he's walking straight to the fire, Yeah, 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:32.719 laughing because he knows he's got it. 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.079 I'm so complete avoid and that as a boss, I 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.120 would laugh as well. And then I would be straight 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.319 on the phone to my sister, who is my business partner, 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.440 and I'd be like, I cannot wait to fire her. 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:44.520 I can't wait. So, I mean, I think that that 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:47.280 is the universe. That is like the universe saying you've 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.440 been an asshole for so long, now like you deserve this. 0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:53.440 I've taken sick days to travel before, but I was 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:56.160 always open with my company. So I used to work 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:57.480 at a hospital and I used to say, Hey, can 0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:59.199 I use a sick day here so that I get 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:02.600 alonger holiday there? I mean, yeah, but they had the choice, 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:03.720 and she's like, yeah, I did. 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:04.199 Have an appointment. 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:07.240 I had an appointment in bus with my part maybe 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:12.520 some raiki out a wellness retreat. I once had an employee. 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:15.280 So it was like a Thursday afternoon. It was two 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.040 o'clock and she said she was feeling really unwell because 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:19.720 she'd just gotten her period. And she was like, I 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:22.160 really think I have to go home. I'm feeling really sick. 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:23.360 Fair sometimes they can be. 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:24.200 They knock you. 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:26.120 Down, and I was like, oh, it's you know, annoying. 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.000 We had so much to get through. But she went home. 0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:29.640 Two o'clock, four thirty. 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.400 She is posting on social media from the rooftop of 0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:36.840 the bar, which is just down the street. She didn't go. 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.040 I was like, did you like? I don't know whether 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.280 she forgot that I followed her. I don't know whether 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:43.240 she thought her post was on private. Maybe she thought 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:46.040 she posted close friends. But I honestly could not I 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.800 have not wanted or been like faster to fire someone. 0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:50.440 I could not wait to fire her for that. 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:52.840 Didn't turn up to the rooftop bar, No, I would 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:53.440 have been, oh my. 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.600 God, fancy seeing you here.

I have such anxiety about calling in sick 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.480 that even if I'm dying, I still drag my ass 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:23.280 to work.
