1 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: Amana's cutting rest, A man's gotten real flood. 2 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 2: It's welcome to the cutting room floor, all the sweepings, 3 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 2: the filings, the bits that are left over after the show. 4 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: What didn't we get round to today, Well, talking about 5 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: the history of mathematics, we did. 6 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 2: That, and we did that last week. There's an odd saying, 7 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 2: if you want something done, get a busy person. 8 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: To do it. It's so true, isn't it, because. 9 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: You just get stuff done when you get stuff done. 10 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 1: Do you notice when you're on a holidays? Because you 11 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: and I are always busy, But then when you're on 12 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: your holidays, you're not busy. One thing can fill the 13 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: whole day, and I'm overwhelmed by having to do one thing. 14 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: Was if I'm busy, give me a million things, not 15 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: do them. 16 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: You are a very busy person. I don't know another 17 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,319 Speaker 2: busier person than you. But I'll say this, you never 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: mentioned that you're busy. 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: You mocking me out, Seriously, you don't. 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: You don't say I'm so busy. Then you'll meet someone 21 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: that gets there. So I'm just so busy, I'm so overwhelmed. 22 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 2: And you go and I always think. 23 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: What do you think? 24 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: Well, this dovetails nicely into this bit of information that 25 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 2: I've got. This headline is branging about how busy you 26 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: are makes people think you're an idiot. Really, because not 27 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 2: that I think that someone's an idiot, but if someone 28 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: goes I've been so busy, and I go, oh, what 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 2: have you been doing? And they'll say this, this and this, 30 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 2: and I said, well, maybe it's not really efficient with it. 31 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: Do you tell people that? Because no one likes being 32 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: told you're not efficient. That's in my mind and your 33 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: mind's eye. What about all those people on Instagram who say, 34 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: I'm filming my day. Here, I am at the airport. Here, 35 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: I am doing a presentation. Here, I am being an 36 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: influence here. Yeah, it's called doing a job. We all 37 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: do it. 38 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: No one gives a yah yah yay, Booty Spicy Lake. 39 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: We beat that out later. 40 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: It's true. No one does, No one gives, no one gives. 41 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: No one's going to reward you for being busy. And 42 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: I learned this a long time ago, you know, And 43 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: I don't think that it's a compliment. Being told you're 44 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: the hardest working person in television or whatever. That's not 45 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: a compliment. And I realized too. I once saying to 46 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: Nicole Kidman, she'd done a whole stack of films in 47 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: the year back to your brag. Well, but I said 48 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: to something like that, and she said, Oh, that sounds terrible. 49 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: And it's true. You don't want to be the busiest 50 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: person because it says that you're not smelling the roses, 51 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: that you're not spending time with your family, and you 52 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: are doing all those things. But it's not an accolade 53 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: to hear that you are the busiest person. 54 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: This is now phenomenon. It's known as busy bragging, the 55 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: act of boasting about how busy you are to appear 56 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: more professional. 57 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: So you're saying, though that people hearing the brag go, 58 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: why don't you shut up? 59 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. A study by the Personal Psychology Journal, I know 60 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 2: that you're always reading as stacked up next to your toilet. 61 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: I'll do the crosswords. 62 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 2: I found the employees who talk about how much work 63 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 2: they have to do are likely to be perceived as 64 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 2: less likable and less compety. 65 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: That's what you were saying, you think, why don't you 66 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: become more efficient? 67 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 2: These people are known as loud laborers. Oh and stress 68 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: bragging can have negative implaes. Cations for brag ads as 69 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: they were perceived as less competent by co workers. 70 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: But we've always worked in those offices where people do 71 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: really long hours and say, oh I'm still here and 72 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: there you think why why? Why long? And some industries 73 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: like to see you working long hours. Others are smarter 74 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: and know that people get their jobs done. That's all 75 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: that's required. You don't have to put in the long 76 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: hours to do your job. Necessarily radio that's your lighthouse keepers. 77 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: A lighthouse keeper, you can't just do a shorter day. 78 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: You have to take care of the hours of the. 79 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: Light where you've got one job at night, to make sure. 80 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: During that night you go, look, I did it in 81 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 1: one hour and going to bed. Now you know, you're 82 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: just you're keeping the lighthouse. 83 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: You don't have to look after, you don't have to 84 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: look out. 85 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: Maybe it wasn't the best analogy. You keep in the light, 86 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Some jobs you do, you 87 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: can't do it eight hour operation as a surgeon and 88 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: a one hour and say, don't worry, I've done it 89 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: so quickly, I'll finishing. 90 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: I'm just going to phone this in. 91 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm home to watch tipping point. You're going to say, 92 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: one radio station where you work. 93 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: No, all radio stations. I will tell you this, it's 94 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: goof off central. Every radio station I've ever worked out 95 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: is a goof off central. You can stand around the 96 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: water cooler talking to people for half the day, and 97 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: that's why people do long days. I'm in and out. 98 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: I'm like a duck mating. 99 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: Is that quick? Yes? And they leave you with the bill. 100 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: I saw it on the web. 101 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 2: I was happy. 102 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: It's never going to be a pun for his own. 103 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: You know that finished his own. 104 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: Know that I'd like to swear again. No, you finished 105 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: it on a high. 106 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 2: Put a swear in here. Good. That was a good Okay, kids, 107 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 2: that's it for today. Come back tomorrow from Laura Josie 108 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 2: and the man is gone. 109 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: Room for it.
