3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:09,920

00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 1: the now on the head, Fletcher, well done. But then

14
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: we got talking afterwards and we had the moment where

15
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: we were like, in what world do you become a

16
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,840

00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 5: them for anything? When the ship goes out to a

24

Speaker 1: God is thinking even more though. I mean, this is

31
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,920

32
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: right now.

33
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,120

Speaker 3: six five.

35
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: A bit of a phone topic for everyone to join

36
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: in here, because I'm interested if these people exist elsewhere

37
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: in the world. Has anyone got a job without actually

38
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: being able to do the thing that the job entails.

39
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 5: This is a true story. When I used to do

40
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 5: swimming lessons when I was a lot younger. Yeah, my

41
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 5: swimming coach didn't know how to swim. Kidding, not kidding, hell,

42
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 5: not kidding. He loved he loved the strokes, and he

43
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 5: loved everything about it and was obsessed with swimming.

44
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 3: Couldn't swim.

45
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: How did you find that out?

46
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 5: I was asked in My dad said this won't ever get.

47
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 3: In the pool.

48
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 5: I thought he actually had on my body design might counting,

49
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 5: which as a ten year old made you feel very unsafe.

50
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest with you.

51
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: As someone who has the certificate as a swimming coach.

52
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's possible, but I love the story.

53
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: I love the effort it would. We got Georgia totally

54
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: five Georgia. What job you end up doing without actually

55
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: being able to do the thing?

56
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: I'm a primary school teacher, and I do not know

57
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 2: my time's table?

58
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 5: Six times six six.

59
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: She's got it. Don't get yourself out.

60
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 4: I know like my six times tables and my five

61
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 4: and my nine?

62
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 5: Right, so hang on, hang on Georgia seven times eight?

63
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know.

64
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: That is a tricky one.

65
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 2: I really struggle. I've never learned my time table. I

66
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: teach my kid's times tables.

67
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: What used do you teach? What used do you teach? Georgia?

68
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: Teaching history at the moment?

69
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: Truth and so? Do they just come out of your

70
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: class only knowing their five, six, and nine time stables

71
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: like they just they skipped the Yeah, that is awful.

72
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: You shouldn't be employed.

73
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: Thanks for going though podcasting. Now has anyone got a

74
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: job but actually didn't know how to do the thing

75
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: that the job was? Now it's a very worthy way

76
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: of saying it. But we had a kid called flat

77
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: show called the show yesterday or a couple of days ago.

78
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 4: He said this, my dad is navy and I can

79
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 4: tire navy not better than he can.

80
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: So go on your fledge out tire your dad always huge.

81
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: But it got down to the point that his dad's

82
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: in the Navy and can't actually tie a knot, which surely,

83
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: like you're loning to think when the government's in charge

84
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: of the Navy, you'd like to think that would be

85
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: part of the sign up process.

86
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 5: It'd be some sort of practical exam, I'd like to think.

87
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 5: So you do a couple of knots, because you know,

88
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 5: imagine all the.

89
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: You know, worse first Navy test. What do you reckon?

90
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 4: It is?

91
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 5: First Navy test are orientation? So which was north, which

92
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 5: was south? Which was west Philly? Not what's starboard? What's

93
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 5: the other one? That'd be another question?

94
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: And nuts.

95
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: And he slipped through, slipped in the cracks. We need

96
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: to do a full review of the navy. Get them

97
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: all down. How many are there? Tens of thousands? Icon

98
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: throw them all pieces of string, guys, sheepshank in three seconds?

00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 2: never looked like what it was supposed to do.

113
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,040

151
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, sounded like that even sounded evil If

152
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,160

153

Speaker 3: No, it's nothing wrong.

154
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,120

155
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: this slave woman that she copies. Shocking. Can we skipport her?
