WEBVTT - Can’t Find A Rental? Should Aussies Try This? 🏘️ 0:00:01.200 --> 0:00:03.520 On Flex and Frooms. Flex and Frooms. 0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:10.240 This is the Flex and Frooms catch up podcast, Flex 0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:14.080 and Free Me for your head top. Life is a lot. 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:17.200 I was exfoliating the other day and I was thinking, 0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:23.079 why why do we do anything? Not in a nihilistic way, 0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:27.080 because I just can't stand nihilism, But just when you 0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:30.280 stop yourself in the middle of a routine and you're like, 0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:31.560 what am I doing this for? 0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:31.880 Again? 0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:33.360 Who is this for? 0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:34.239 Is it for me? 0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.760 I don't know a routine, huh, any kind of routine. 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:42.120 Yeah, you know, like sometimes you find yourself like, for example, 0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:44.800 sometimes I think we might have been talking about it. 0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:47.400 The other day, I was thinking about being polite, and 0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:50.880 I was like, who's that for? Who does that serve 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.320 for me? To be polite? When I don't see your polite. 0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:55.480 One thing I've been challenging myself to do, based in 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:59.800 our rules for life, is to not over over perform 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:02.440 how much I like an acquaintance. 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.920 Like I really, world is not ready for this. 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.160 I know because I've really struggled with this idea of 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:10.119 not necessarily being likable because of a lot of people don't 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:12.160 like me. But this idea that everyone should get this 0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:15.400 flex experience because I go around being really like the 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:17.480 lads through me and having the best time and whatever. 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:19.320 I don't want someone to feel left out, but I 0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:22.160 don't actually care, and I've gotten into this trap of 0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:27.360 making acquaintances feel like really good friends and then then 0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:30.880 pushing boundaries or feeling close or me not knowing how 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.360 to manage that friendship properly because we're actually not friends. 0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:38.199 So now when I'm out in public or with people 0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.279 who I'm not that close with, I need to challenge 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:43.679 myself to learn how to just be polite, how to 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.840 just keep it at a distance, how to not give 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.080 a lot and then pull away. 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:49.240 Interesting. 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:53.240 It's really hard because it's you know how it's you 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.920 observe it. You see the way I talk to strangers, 0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:58.480 and it's a nice feeling, but it actually doesn't do 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.560 anything for me. When someone it's like, oh my god, 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.240 she really likes me. It's amazing, and I'm like, no, 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:06.280 I overdid it. And it's a manipulative thing as well, 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.720 Like I think it's people please a core. It's not 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.680 at the root people pleaser, but definitely is like, well 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:14.440 why don't I want you to like me? But now 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:16.720 I'm like why does it matter if I don't actually 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.239 like you. I don't dislike you, but I don't. Why 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.280 am I going above and beyond to make you feel 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:24.880 so comfortable with me when I need to save that 0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:26.200 energy for my people. 0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:30.440 Sounds like an ascension technique it is. I look forward 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:32.359 to seeing how it goes. I think it's working. 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.240 Let's go flex and frooms like see. 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:37.840 I know you and I have been in the process 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.880 over the years of finding and leaving rentals. We are 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.680 in the rental market, you and I as young women 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:48.600 in a professional setting, along with every. 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:51.720 Other person because anyone who needs a home. 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:54.320 And obviously we're going through a bit of a rental 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:58.079 crisis here in Sydney and abroad. Melbourne is also implicated. 0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.959 The whole of Australia is implicated. But when your two 0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:02.240 major cities. 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:06.520 You're saying we have it worse off than everybody you know. 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:08.480 I'm saying I feel like it started in Sydney, like 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:11.840 the Melbourne rental crisis didn't really hit until semi recently. 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:17.800 I would say. And I saw this article reshared on Reddit. 0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:23.480 What okay. It was uploaded one thousand, six hundred times, 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:27.120 and it was a comment on this article that was 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.800 talking about how every article related to the housing crisis 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.560 kind of has a title like plenty would rather rent 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:35.640 than own their own home. Apparently there's like a shift 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.760 in Australia of people being willing to rent as opposed 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.480 to buying it, and this obviously flies in the face 0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:46.480 of like the typical inverted coomas Australian dream. One of 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:49.440 the biggest parts of the Australian dream is owning a home. 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.880 I would say it's something that people put a lot 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:53.800 of pressure on themselves for and also it's kind of 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.160 like a personality. 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:55.360 Trait if you do it. 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.080 I would say, we all know the requisite Facebook posts 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:01.320 of you in front of the billboard, often telling people 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.160 where you live. So it's quite a dangerous thing to do, 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:07.120 but it also, i can imagine, is very exciting. And 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.040 the top comment that was awarded on Reddit suggested an 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:13.800 alternative and I write, okay, counterpoint, If there's so many 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:15.560 of us who prefer to rent, why don't we have 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.560 a social standard for long term leases. In Europe there's 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:20.800 a massive rental market and it's not uncommon to see 0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:24.120 ten year or possibly up to thirty year leases. But 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.239 here you'll be hard pressed to find an agent willing 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.080 to front up anything longer than twelve months. Right now, 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:30.720 I'd love to buy, but I can't afford a big 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.240 house enough for my family. However, I also have no 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.599 chance of finding long term stability in the rental market. 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:38.480 I'm not expecting both options, but having one of them 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:42.360 would be nice. How smart could that be? Having ten 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.600 year rentals? Because I think about it often, like if 0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:49.000 you're like, it's pretty fine for me to rent because 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.080 I don't have any dependables, Whereas like, if you're renting 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:53.280 and then you want to move every five years, this 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:56.200 is not a vibe. We have to move schools, like, 0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:57.760 we have to do all these kind of things, like 0:04:57.880 --> 0:04:59.159 we need to have an alternate. 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.599 Your family owned there, because all of us who just 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:04.040 lived in rentals our whole child, were like, yeah, you 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:08.560 just where it's like, so this is what we have 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:12.960 to do. Yeah, that's what we've been doing, you know 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:13.320 what I mean? 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.680 Yeah, it's it's pretty upsetting. But do you think this 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:17.800 could be implemented? 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.040 I think anything could be implemented, But realistically, in order 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:23.400 for that to work, the people that it benefits would 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.440 need to agree. And I think that's like the great 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:28.560 issue with a lot of change happening, that the people 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:32.480 who would be most impacted are the gatekeepers of change. 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:34.920 Literally, because I imagine, if you sorry, people. 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:37.720 Who are the litt least impacted are the gatekeepers change storry. 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:41.840 Yes, and I can imagine people who because it is 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:43.440 so hard to buy a house in Australia, a lot 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.320 of people that buy houses and then rent them out 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.280 are going to want to like move back into them 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:48.880 or sell them on. So they're not going to sign 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.120 a five year lease because if they sell it within 0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:51.599 two years. 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:53.200 They're going to make a tidy profit. Anyway. 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:59.600 Anyway, good luck to me when I want to find 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.400 a new house, and to everyone else, I pray that 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:01.920 we can do. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:06.000 This Okada flex and frooms flex and froms. It's not 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.800 that often where I see something on the internet too 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.240 good to be true and I run to share it 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:15.680 with Miss Thrum. But this listen here. Air Asia budget 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:20.239 airline in Australia releases an unlimited travel pass for seven 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:24.160 ninety nine that's seven hundred and ninety nine dollars annually. 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:30.520 You can travel unlimited apparently get to go to the Maldives, Korea, 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:36.000 Japan and Southeast Asia, all around Australia. I said, what 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:39.680 kind of dealer is this? Either you're a bad business 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.839 person or you try to drop us. I feel like, 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:46.000 so obviously did I did my cursory research, which has 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:50.120 going in trick comments? I said, someone's going to have 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:51.920 done the research and'd be like, this is a scam. 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.320 Not a scam, but how do you do unlimited air 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:58.920 travel for seven hundred and ninety nine Australian dollars? So 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.360 I looked at the comments. The comments said, well, number one, 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.360 you have to pay taxes on each fare. What does 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:07.600 that even mean? How much of playing taxes is that? Tempercent? 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:10.040 Oh, it's just like when you pay tax on anything. 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:13.320 So now you see, oh it's this price plus tax, 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:14.680 so you just play the pucks tax? 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:17.000 Yeah? What plus tax? 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:19.400 How do you see this tick took the other day, 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:21.560 which is like when your friend miss you miss says 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.040 one word and then you just keep saying it I 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:23.520 want again. 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:27.520 Yeah, it's funny. And then I was like, okay, cool, 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.840 we can pay taxes or good. So maybe I'm paying 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:35.000 an extra one hundred dollars for a flight to Japan. 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.040 And then I scrolled further down in the comments, they said, well, 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.840 from Sydney you can only fly to Malaysia in New Zealand. Okay, 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:45.840 so what is that? Is it unlimited or not? I'm 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:50.200 so sick of marketing. I'm so sick because I'm like, 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.440 why would you lie first of all? And what are 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:55.320 you really offering? 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:58.840 Then also there's another asterix they put you down in 0:07:59.000 --> 0:07:59.880 where the tax you go. 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.080 On arrival with the. 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:11.960 So so your seats just above the locker. Respectfully. 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:17.840 It's just ridiculous. And I mean good on them because 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:20.920 I'm talking about it, But now I feel peeved and 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.360 I haven't even gotten any benefits so far. 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.560 You don't really the target demographic, are you? 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:30.600 What's reached my feed? So I guess I'm gonna weigh in. Okay, 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.720 you know what if it was seven ninety nine for 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.599 actually all the places that they do offer flight to, 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.640 that's a great deal. I'd say, all the girls, let's 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:39.800 get in on it. Let's start doing travels. 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.080 Okay, Brookie, I actually want to get this so I 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:43.760 can go back home to New Zealand all the time 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:44.520 it see my family. 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.400 Well, this works because if you actually need to go 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.840 or you want to go, like the destinations back and forth, 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:50.360 it's perfect. But for the rest of us. 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:53.720 So Brookie, our producer Brookies from New Zealand, and whenever 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.200 she talks about New Zealand, the New Zealand accent comes through. 0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:57.440 Does it? Yeah? 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:00.000 Yeah, I mean I swear like Brookies brought up news 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.800 ceiling before and then well she's. 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:08.920 Like New Zealan, I said New Zealand. No, no, she's 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:15.560 said New Zealans, New Zealand. Liar Mammy. Can I listen 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.960 to whatever? This is? 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.760 Silly? But yeah, Asia, that sounds late. I would also 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:22.120 get on it. I want to go to South Korea. 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:23.160 You can't. 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:28.320 Again, doesn't apply. I didn't see what the Melbourne vibe 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:30.960 is or any other place, but the comments didn't say so. 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:31.440 I don't know. 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:33.680 Flex and frooms Kit. 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.120 We're feeling a bit silly today, but we will bring 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.680 it tepper, because this is a job. 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.280 It's a nine to five. If you will, if you will. 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:42.640 Bigsicality. 0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:45.440 I was in a shop the other day. I was 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.800 in a secondhand storree in Melbourne. Good Buyers is what 0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:50.680 it's called.

But anyway, I digress. 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:40.000 I tried on this beautiful. 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.200 Who let's just round out that story. So you put 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:44.960 it on your story and you cast a vote and said, hey, 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:46.599 what should we do? Should I get it? Should I 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:48.920 not get it? It's fifty to fifty mostly, but I 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:51.120 guess you're nearest and dearest except me said not to 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.760 get it. I said, babes, they're incredible, You've got taste, 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.920 you've got vision. Get them. She should have listened to me, 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.400 and Fruit doesn't listen to me enough. And I always 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:00.959 have her back and she never listens to me, and 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.240 then she comes crawling back when things don't go right, 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.600 so she leaves, doesn't get the shoes, goes back, and 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.400 then of course they've been sold because one of your 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:10.600 fans bought them. 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:14.560 Well, I was actually going to message you when I 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:16.320 tried them on, but it was a Saturday, and I thought, 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:18.959 you know, we need to keep the relationship somewhat personal, sorry, 0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:23.040 somewhat professional. So I was very disappointed when you did 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:25.560 come to and message me with your support. So it 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.200 got me thinking I definitely need help, especially when it 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:30.600 comes to shoes. I can never decide the right shoes. 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:32.680 This has happened in Japan as well. I went to 0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:34.720 Comedy Garson's. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:41.599 You know you can say CDG CDG. 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:47.720 New Zealand, and I saw this pair of. 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:53.800 CDG shoes that were like white brogues with a black soul, 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:55.960 and I always wanted a pair. I sent them to 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.520 my friend M who's like a fashion designer, and she 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:00.440 didn't reply in time because I was on Japan time. 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:03.600 And then I bought them. They're like seven hundred bucks. 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.960 I get home and she's like, they look like clown shoes. Yeah, 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:08.480 so I had to sell them again. 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:11.440 So I'm very like, I'm not confident when it comes 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:11.959 to shoes. 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:14.680 So I guess it makes me think. 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.960 This is why you've wont crocs exclusively for the last 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:17.600 three years. 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:20.559 And I've been telling my friends like, I can't wait. 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.839 I actually don't like crocs, but they're comfortable and I 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:23.760 don't know what else to wear. 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:25.479 So I did go back to the shop. 0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:28.760 And I bought a pair of Doc Martin's Little Cross 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:33.040 Tea ones and they look good. But are you someone 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:35.400 like you have quite an impeccable sense of style. Have 0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:37.200 you ever needed techn opinions or do you just go 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:37.680 with your gut? 0:12:37.960 --> 0:12:40.520 Go with my gut. I trust my taste for me, 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:44.880 you know. I don't like to dress people or help 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:49.040 style people in any capacity interior, makeup, hair, because I 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:51.440 just know what I like on meat. That's the cavet 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:53.920 every time. So I trust my judgment enough that I 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:56.679 can make it work. And I think if you separate 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:58.760 a few of the items I have, they're not that 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:00.720 cute to a lot of peas. Little bit together, I 0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:02.839 always look good. You know. It's always hard to know 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:04.720 if somebody's just saying it looks good to appease you 0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:07.280 because they can tell you really like it, versus am 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:08.560 I gonna get wear out of this? Is it a 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:10.760 good purchase or whatever? So no, I don't like to 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:15.560 do consultations when buying, though I do. I found myself 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:19.760 doing consultations when I'm going to a party with a 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:22.320 friend and I don't know what the like, what the 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.760 dress code is. You know, I'm like, so what are 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:27.960 we really doing? Because I'm already quite a showy person, 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:30.480 So I don't. I feel like, do me a favor 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:32.080 and let me know if it's not that environment, so 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.280 I can yeah, exactly, exactly. 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:39.360 Well, I want to learn how to reassure myself as 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.160 opposed to seeking reassurance. Watch this space. I did buy 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.320 the other shoes without any consultation, wore them that night 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:46.840 and have horrible blisters. 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.240 So the crocs are back on rotation. Are you any pickies? Yeah, 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:51.520 yeah I did. I'll send you them. 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:55.400 Flex and frims, Flex and frimes. Cater never miss a beat. 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:57.640 It is days like this where I'm thankful that the 0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:02.160 algorithm works. Shout out to Cater. It's flexing frooms. If 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.760 you are a girl boss, an aspiring girl Boss or 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:07.400 filmed girl Boss or what came before girl Boss just 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:11.400 to buss generally, or just a girl a person at 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.800 this point. True, you're gonna want to hear this. How 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:15.360 are you getting money in prison? Do you have a 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:16.280 prison hustle at all? 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:18.840 I'm a really great braider, so I had braid hair. 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:20.800 How do you get paid for your prison hustles? What's 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:22.200 a currency in a woman's prison? 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:24.640 Some people do food, Like when I would braid hair, 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.680 I'd say, hey, listen, if you're making food, throw me 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:31.560 a plate, or let me use your TV for an hour, 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:35.840 or let me borrow your headphones, or if you have 0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:39.480 phone time from seven to seven forty, let me switch 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:41.160 with you. So you have the later slot and I 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:42.080 have the beginning slot. 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:43.600 So it all depends. 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:45.840 Or you call home and tell your mom to put 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:48.240 twenty bucks on my book and I will do your 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.600 hair for the rest of the month, or you know, 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:53.520 it just all depended on what you wanted, how much 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:55.840 of it you wanted, how much you were willing to spend. 0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:03.160 So wait, yes, do they have hair ties you can 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:07.840 get at the commissary show? And probably like the little plastic ties? 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:08.840 True? 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:10.520 Not the big fabric ones tricking. 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.760 You'd be this chicken jail, absolutely pustling. 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:18.120 Remember when I was on Big Brother, and when I 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.440 was being antisocial because I didn't want to make too 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.200 many friends, I would just pretend to be really proficient 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:27.840 in the kitchen. I don't cook for every day. Every 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.840 meal time, I'd be cooking some meals and I was 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:32.440 the only one who could turn on the oven, so 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:34.200 every time someone else did it to cook, they'd have 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:35.000 to ask me. 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:38.000 It's like an alternate universe when you're in a Big Brother. 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:41.040 I said, this is how you hustle. I think I 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:42.200 won't do the same thing in prison. 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:43.240 That's scary. 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.720 Oh just do hair braiding, can you? 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:47.560 Yeah?

They're going to be wiring me money and 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:14.600 I'm going to pay people. 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:18.240 To take your single now. He's single now and you're 0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:21.360 not in jail. Somehow you're going to become a criminal 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:23.239 and then find a boot somehow. 0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:25.120 I still have to go to in Donut to get 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:26.520 massages like I'm in jail. 0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.960 This is Flex and Frooms on kit phone addiction, phone 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:35.160 addiction addiction Haiku by the girls. 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:37.840 Listen, it's not a high kite.

For Flex, it is 0:16:56.760 --> 0:17:01.520 really hard for her phone issue for Flex. 0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:03.960 That's a high coot through me redacted. 0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:07.199 Thank you so much for sharing. So I've got two phones. 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:10.000 I'm a full time girl boss. I'm always online, which 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:12.200 you would be hard pressed to believe. If you've tried 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.400 to text me in the last fortnight and I didn't 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:17.080 respond because I didn't want to, let it be known. 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.080 I have my phone on me most often. If I 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:23.040 don't respond, it'scause I don't want to. But what I 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.119 do try and do is when I don't actually need 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:27.119 to be using my phone, I will just leave it. Well, 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.040 I'm trying to learn how to do that. So I'm 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:33.160 currently downsizing in my apartment, and so I'm doing spring cleaning. 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:37.160 And I hate the act of going to the bins 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:39.879 in an apartment. I usually live in homes. We've got 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:42.320 your own little bin. You know it's cleaner, it's messy. 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:47.240 My current bin room there's rats, rat poo, it's dank. 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.120 There's probably one or two days a week where it's presentable. 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:53.800 And I wasn't there that day. It's Thursday, so I 0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.560 had so much rubbish to take out, and so all 0:17:56.560 --> 0:17:58.639 I could have thought to hold was just my keys, 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.480 and my keys attached to my wallet and attached to 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.840 my swipes and everything I need. So i'm, you know, 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:08.600 bag ladying down the lift to the bin room. The 0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:10.919 door is locked, so I have to unlock it myself 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:14.720 with my key. I unlock it and the door swings 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:16.760 shut straight away. My keys is still on the door. 0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:18.479 I say, oh, good, like, I'll just open the door 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:20.560 back up. No, I couldn't open the door back up. 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:24.040 I'm stuck in the bin. I hear scurring. 0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:26.520 What time was this? 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:28.000 Ten pm? 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:28.200 Oh? 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:29.800 I hate it on a what day? 0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:30.840 On a weekend? 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:32.960 Oh babe, that's bad, you know. 0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:37.000 So I hear the rats scurrying around, I see the 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:40.760
