it could be yours. You never know. Buckle up and
(00:22):
hold on tight. We got it for you here. It
is Strawberry Letter. Thank you nephew. Subject her special healing suit.
Dear Stephen Shirley. I recently moved to a small town
and I got a great job making great money. I'm
thirty three and the woman I'm working with. The women
I'm working with are all in their late forties and fifties.
(00:44):
I'm respectful, but there's a sixty year old woman that
thinks she's in charge because she's the oldest. She told
me to call her Mama May, and she was talking
down to me a lot in the beginning. The funny
part is that I was hired as a division director.
All of these women report to me. Mama May ran
the office before I was hired, so she's in my
(01:06):
way as I try to change the culture of the office.
She does little spiteful things and then acts like she
didn't mean any harm. But I'm on to her. I
need her to retire because she's weird and she's dangerous.
I was congested for three days, so I left work
early on a Friday to get some rest. Saturday morning,
(01:28):
May popped up at my house with a big pot
of orange liquid dripping everywhere. She barged into my house
and plopped the pot on my stove and told me
it was her special healing soup. She told me to
eat three bowls a day until I felt better. The
soup smelled awful and she would not tell me what
was in it. She insisted that I eat a bowl
(01:51):
of it before she left. I could basically drink the
soup because everything in it was mushy. I finished most
of it and she only left so I got back
in the bed. I woke up an hour later with
the worst stomach pain I had ever had. I was
in the bathroom all day and night. My nose and
(02:12):
my colon were clear after eating May's special soup. May
still won't say what's in her special healing soup. A
few ladies in the office said they should have warned
me not to let May no I'm sick. Is May
a witch or something? What's in her healing soup? Well,
you know, I don't know about her being a witch
(02:35):
or anything like that. No one knows what's in her
healing soup because she doesn't tell it. But what I
have to ask is where do you live that someone
could just burst in your house like that? I mean,
was your door open? Was it unlocked? Does Mama may
have a key or something? Plus you already said you
need her to retire because she's weird and dangerous and
she does little spiteful things to you. But yet you
(02:59):
ate some nasty smelling soup that she brought over and
wouldn't say what was in it. Boy, did you take
a chance? You took a risk on that one, didn't you.
I mean, thank god you're okay, you're alive after eating
her soup, But it could have turned out very ugly.
Now as far as her being a witch, I mean,
like I said earlier, really is this a real question?
Because who knows? I mean, we do know she's not
(03:21):
a snitch, because you're still trying to get her to
tell you what her healing soup. The ingredients to that
was and she won't tell you that. But if it
can cure congestion and illnesses, I guess the world needs
to know about it. I just think you're lucky, you know,
would to still be able to write us and tell
us about this, because I wouldn't have eaten the soup.
(03:42):
I'll tell you that, Steve, and I know you wouldn't
have eaten it. All right, let's open up this letter
of the subject her special healing soup with this statement,
you stupid. That's just open with that. Let's go on
and this read this dumb ass letter and try to
(04:04):
figure out what possessed you to write this letter with
all this information in it that you had. Thirty three
have started to well, you're in a position now to
figure a lot of this stuff out. Stephen Sherley, I
recently moved to a small town. I got a great job,
making great money. Thirty three and the women I'm working
(04:24):
with in the late forties and fifties, I'm respectful. Here's
a problem, though, got this one sixty year old woman
that thinks she's in charge because she's the oldest. She
told me to call her mama, made all right, and
she's been talking down to you a lot in the beginning.
The funny party is you now hit the part I'm
(04:45):
about the letter. You are hired as a division leader,
so all the women report to you. Mama May ran
the office before I was hired, and your letter says,
so she in my way. Let's stop right here. She's
in your way of running the office. You just said
(05:08):
in the letter that she's kind of like and you
haven't said it yet in the letter, but she's the
oldest and she told you to call her Mama May,
and you said she was talking down to you in
the beginning. But you are hired as division leader, so
all these women report to me. Now, you said, Mama
(05:31):
May ran the office before I was hired, so she's
in my way. Well, seemed to me like Mama May
think you in her way. See she ran the office.
You about your little young ass up in here. Now
everybody got a report to you when she'd been having
everybody report to her. Let me ask you a question,
(05:53):
why is your position even open? They didn't. Let's not
come up with that position. You're feeling a position, Why
is that position even open? It's caused Mama made it,
got rid of everybody. Don't say she might be a witch,
(06:20):
bade it, got rid of everybody's and you go talking
about she in your way. Ah, you see nothing, Luca.
Let's come back. I'm gonna tell you, but I think
you already No, All right, hang on. Coming up in
twenty three minutes after the hour, Steve will be back
(06:42):
with part two of his response to today's Strawberry letter,
the subjects her special healing sup we'll get back into
it right after this. You're listening to the Steven Show,
all right, Steve, come on, let's recap today's Strawberry letter.
The subject her special healing suit. Got this young girl
(07:03):
thirty three years old and moved into this small, lovely town,
got this wonderful, high paying job. And the women that
they work with, she works with it in the late fortis,
in fifty. She's respectful of them. But there's a sixty
year old woman that thinks she's in charge because she's
the oldest. And she told you to call her mama, mate,
(07:24):
and she's been talking down to you a lot in
the beginning, and then you say, the funny thing is
you was hired as a division leader the division director.
So all these women report to me. Mama Made ran
the office before I was hired, so she's in my way. Now,
I pointed out a very factual thought of mine. First
(07:47):
of all, why is your position open? How did your
job become available? Anyway? And then you thought these women
reported you, But you just said, Mama Mate, ain't she
run everything? And then you said, Mama May is in
your way. Now you're missing the whole letter you wrote
(08:07):
you in Mama May's wayne, Yeah, you win the waker
some bris. And then you said, yeah in your wakeceruse,
you're trying to change the culture of the office. Now,
this is a very important line that follows. Next, she
(08:28):
does little spiteful things and then acts like she didn't
mean any harm. Now, all of a a sudden, this half
a shot up and yodough with some damn suit. Oh
you don't see it coming. Why oh, now you didn't
put this into the game, now you know you. But
(08:51):
now you say, she do the spiteful things, act like
she mean no harm. But you own to it, right,
And now your next statement is I need her to
retire because she's weird and dangerous. Then here comes a
chance to get somebody out of the way because she
in your way. But what you don't know is you
and little Mama made way. I got congestion for three days,
(09:14):
so I left work early on Friday to go get
some rest. Sadday morning, Mama made pops up at the
dough with a big pot of orange liquid dripping everywhere.
She barged into my house and plopped the pot of
my stove and told me it was a special heres
suit you saying in your letter letting me quote you.
(09:43):
She does spiteful things and tries to act like she
didn't mean no harm. Well, you got a big pot
of spite sitting on your stove now because Mama made
in your way. Yeah, you and Mama made away. Mama
(10:07):
made him, bought this party, Mama making fits. She insisted
that I eat a bowl of it before she left.
I could basically drink the soup because everything and it
was mushy. The reason it's mushy because she over balled
so you wouldn't be able to recognize the incredients. I
(10:29):
finished most of it and she finally left, so I
got back in bed. I woke up about an hour
later in the worst stomach pain I ever had. I
was in the bathroom all day and night. My nose
and colon would clear. And after eating May, after eating
made special soup, May still won't say what's in her
special healing soup. A few the ladies in the office
(10:50):
said they should have warned me not to let make
know I was sick. Is May a witch or something?
What is in her heels? Man? Let me clear up
how you think May got in charge at the office.
I'm just saying, yeah, old mother maide and killed lost people,
(11:16):
oh lord, and some people that went home and they
ever came back. See, everybody don't know that she showed
up at the doe with the healing suit. They just
don't come back to work. You need to do some
research and find out how many of your co workers
are former workers at the office have been found dead
(11:37):
in their bed. Oh my gosh, I'm just gonna put
it out there. Anybody want to say, Mama May killing people?
This is a lot of about potential. This is one
you need to catch your little ignorant as kids on
Facebook that do all these mass shootings and everything. See
(11:59):
you ignore this signs, Uncle Steve, don't ignore no signs.
This is a Facebook post warning, just like them ignorant
people to be doing all the mass shootings. Mama made
is a killer Mama maid, and kill some people befolk.
And your answer, you'd ate them three bowls like she
told you your ants wouldn't be at work Monday morning.
(12:21):
Problem solved. Now it's Mama made. Really, I don't think so.
Did I use that as an example to get your attention? Yes?
I did? Why did you drink the soup? I don't
have no idea cause you stupid. I have a rule,
(12:42):
but I don't eat from people I don't like. No,
