Speaker 1 (00:28):
All thanks to the Live Nation. Fred's show is on
Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I told you guys, I went to that that Catholic
mass funeral and I felt like an outsider. My nana
would be so disappointed me. I did not get the
new script. No one sent me the adjustment.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
A right, you just show up one day and everything's different.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
It's not cool.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
It's like, I know this part, okay, piece with you.
And also and it wasn't even that.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Yeah, it was your record stretch for me.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, I'm like, okay, all right, our father horn, I
got it, okay, But they did that.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
That was different too too.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
The end of it. It was like they said something
I had no eye.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I know, my guys, I know. I just listen to
more of that Alex warrensong. You'll understand. If you don't
want to talk about war, and I don't, then hear
the biggest stories of the day. The Oklahoma City thunder
our NBA champions, after finally finishing off the Indiana Pacers
in Game seven last night. Yeah, the Pacers were hurt
by the loss of their star player Tyreee Halliburton at
(01:27):
the end of the first quarter. He suffered and achilles
injury and left the court in tears. Very sad. But
Game seven, I slept right through it. But the Oklahoma
City thunder guys, something I never thought I would say.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Oklahoma City.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Well I shouldn't say that in recent years maybe, but
who knew NBA champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder underdogs. I
am sort of impressed, though not about war, but about
the the B two pilots that were involved in the war.
You know, they take off at a Missouri, they fly
over there, they do all that turn around, come back neverland.
So they're in the air for like eighteen to twenty
(01:58):
four hours and they have a microwave, a toilet and
something else and a cooler in the airplane and they
just refuel along the way is refuel the refuel the airplane.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
You never seen this before.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
They have airplanes with gas at them and a pipe
attaches in the air to another airplane, and then it
sucks that they never have to land.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Yeah, Fred, where would I have seen that?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
What?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Everybody knew? They had aircraft refuel You never heard of
a refueler. No, no, you've never heard of this. Did
you not know this?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Honey, wait a minute, people didn't know this. No, I
thought this was common knowledge.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Baby.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So they got big gass airplane, a huge airplane, like
the kind of bigger than the kind of you would
go on like southwest right, and it's full of gas
and so it flies up along you know whatever whatever,
thirty thousand feet and then it's got like a boom
on it. It's basically a long gas tube tube basically,
and the other airplane flies up right behind it, and
(02:53):
the tube comes down and connects, and they connect the
airplane and it pumps, it fills it up with gas,
and then they just keep.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Going because they don't have time.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, the fighters do this a lot of different airplanes
can be refeir air Force one I believe can be refueled.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Now does it fly along with it the whole.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Flash right yet same speed below it, just below it,
And then there's a person in the back of the
of the the refueler that like drives the boom and
so like the other pile will fly up kind of
behind it, and then they'll like adjust the tube.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
I thought everybody in the world knew they had.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
No refills the refiller because if it's flying, so.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Those are stationed like all over the world.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
So like if I if I'm B two man and
I take off out of Missouri Whiteman, Missouri, and I
fly and like let's say, maybe I get up over
like I don't know, Greenland or something, and then maybe
the refueler guys are in Greenland. They'll then they are
fill of gas and then they fly up there and
then you and then they go back home. Right then
they'll go back to their base and they know those
guys will keep going and then maybe they get over
(03:50):
like I don't know, I'm making this up France or
England or somewhere where we have the refuelers. And then
they'll those guys take off and meet them.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
There are refuelers that we put there.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Fill them up all over the world.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
And so yeah, so these dudes they flew over there,
they did what they got to do. They turn around,
come home Land the next day, never Land, never landed.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Wow. Yeah, and he didn't know that. I didn't know.
This is.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Youa drive your range rover down the highway while you're
watching TikTok and someone gonna come and refuel you.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
I would be nice.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
It would crazy if they can do this in the air,
Like what about land.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Right, Yeah, they can stamp in the air forever like
not for it. Well, in theory, they can step until
the air till they un out of food. Yeah, food
would be the only thing that they would need. Yeah, theoretically,
so I thought that was kind of cool. Though. They
take off and then they see you tomorrow and they
go do a bunch of stuff and the like their wives
are at home like, you know, honey, I gotta go
to work.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
I'll see tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
And then they're at home watching CNN like, oh, I
guess he was there, And.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Then they turn around come back. Yeah, it's cool. It
is anyway.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Also, this is in my list of stories today, but
it has nothing to do with anything except at sports
and kind of crazy do you name? Gideon Lampron is
his name. He's a Bowling Green college linebacker and he's
getting attention for his status, but also because of his
middle name, Espn. His name is actually on his birth certificate,
(05:20):
Gideon Espn Lampron in capitol letters. His dad, who's a
huge sports fan, snuck the name Espn onto the certificate
while mom was asleep after birth. So this is kind
of like what the nurses did in your mom. I
was gonna say, that's like history repeating itself, because the
nurses named you because they believed that your mom, who
(05:42):
was new to this country. Yes, maybe didn't understand the
English language.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Well enough, right, but you know my name?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
The craziest part is like she said what she said, right.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
But then they said no because that might be confused
with the common street name in this area.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Which is spelled the exact same way, just pronounced different.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
But that's okay. You're allowed to have whatevery name you want.
You're allowed to tell people how to pronounce it too.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, and my name, right, my name is very much
a name of her native land.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, native right, right, native land. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So anyway, this guy's the middle name is ESPN and
mom had no knowledge of this because she was asleep
after you know, extracting a human from her body. And
he thought that would be cute to sneak that in.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Oh that I would thought he's grown to be like
successful now and sports.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, so it kind of worked out, I guess.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Testless highly anticipated robotaxi services launched at Austin as of Sunday.
They're a ten to twenty driverless model wise available during
what amounts to a test running. Elon must says the
service will ultimately be expanded. For now, rides will cost
a flat four twenty he's so cute with them, and
a safety monitor will be seated in the front passenger
seat of each robotaxi.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
So that's a good way to start it out. You know,
let's have a guy.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
So it's not technically autonomous, like the thing will pull
up in front of your house or whatever, and there'll
be a man there and now this or woman. This
person's not doing anything, but they're just there to make
sure that this thing didn't go way more on you
and go run in circles and you can't get out
or start running people over making illegal turns.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
But this is the future of rides.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Here, Tesla will remotely monitor the cars what to be
available to pick up passengers in a limited geo fenced area.
Per ap Only two passengers, both of whom must be
over eighteen, will be allowed on each ride. The rolloute
seems to be invite only and it's not clear when
it will be open to the public.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But this is where we're headed. Guys. Is driverless ubers? Wow?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I think we knew that, but are we ready? Would
you get in a car that pulls up in front
of your house with no driver? I think I would
at this point really well, because we got people like
you that are watching TikTok while they're driving, So I mean,
maybe I'm safer.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
This isn't about me, okay, it's about your safety. And
if you want to get out the car, the door
locks and it's going and circles in.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
What are you going to do if someone just text it?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
He sounds truly baffled that it's not common knowledge that
airplanes can refull in the I did not know that
people didn't know that air military aircraft can refuel in
the air, though, I was like, everybody.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Knew that.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Planes Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I guess I truly thought that was common knowledge.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
No nuclear codes.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
That's what's my cross body perse I it. I'm carrying
that cross body purse around for it in the moment
they might call. They did call me over the weekend
and said, what are the cod what are the codes?
I was on a lake, though, and I didn't have
my cross body purse on the lake. I didn't wear
it shirtless, and so they were like, what are the coaches?
I'm like, I can't tell you. I don't know. It
was a crisis. It was awful. It was so terrible.
(08:36):
So here's one that's going to throw you off today
to start your Monday. As you shift through all the
unwanted spam emails in your inbox, you might be tempted
to do. What if you're getting a bunch of emails
that you don't want, What are you tempted to do?
What would be the most obvious thing to do if
you want to stop the emails, delete them, or which
or there's one further step which is the most obvious,
(08:58):
which seems to be the last step that I take unsubscribe, yes, right,
so I delete them. Then I get annoyed they come back,
and then I'm like, oh, I guess I could just unsubscribe,
but then I don't. Well, it turns out that might
be the worst thing you can do, with cybersecurity experts
now warning that responding to such a message or link
may actually invite more correspondents that leads to future threats.
(09:19):
This is from the Wall Street Journal. One in six
hundred and forty four clicks on unsubscribe links ends up
directing the email recipient to possibly malicious websites. Selecting unsubscribed
could also let whoever is on the other end know
that you're a real person who interacts with spam, and
that can make you a bigger target. So I can't
even hit the unsubscribed button anymore without opening myself up
(09:42):
to something. But that's why a lot of those weird
texts that you'll get like hey, how you ban or
like hey is this still your number? Or like you
ever get those that are like random, And then I
guess that's all that is is to see if there's
a real person on the other end who like me.
A million times before I finally figured it out is like, uh, oh,
who for my past is coming back? And then it
bothers me all day like who's asking? And I like
(10:04):
try and reverse search the number only to find out
that it's BS. But that's all that's about is they
want you to respond, so they're like, Okay, there's a
real person and then they sell your number.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Oh yeah, the minute that I got to text us out,
how you ben? I knew it wasn't like it wasn't
going to happen.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
How you bet?
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Right, Like, no one cares how I bet?
Speaker 1 (10:19):
No, one just reaches it.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
No one cares.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
No one reaches out calling. This is how you bet. No,
you don't care how I bet? But later you'll get
one from me and I'll mean it. But how you're bet?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
So instead you're supposed to click on the list unsubscribe header,
hyperlink buttons that email services embed, and email subject lines
or headers. Okay, that sounds a little advanced. Instead of interacting,
mark a messages spam once it comes in and be
done with it, and then set up filters to screen
out particularly persistent emailers so that those messages go right
(10:47):
to spam, or set up an alternate email account that
you can use to sign up for deals, coupons, contests,
or whatever so that your regular email doesn't get bombard
And I got a couple more for you here. Gen
Z has unbelievable job requirements, according to a new survey
from resume dot io. Fromparents dot com, no, they find
that Generation Z has unique expectations for work environments. Yunique,
(11:12):
So gen Z. This is what a pair according to
a survey. And sometimes I think that gen Z is
being done dirty because this is because how many people
were asked about this and who were they?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Sometimes I think this is getting a little REDI I
don't know this. I mean, Bella has never asked me
for a nap room. Okay, she also doesn't. I'm not
allowed to look her in the eye either, so I
don't know, if you know, maybe she wants them, but
a nap room. Sixteen percent of gen Z workers under
twenty eight considered nap rooms essential in the workplace.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Hey love fun rooms.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Around twenty percent expect offices to have recreational areas with
ping pong pet friendly policies. Twenty percent require workplaces to
be pet friendly.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I agree, it's cute.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
That'd be fine.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah, except there's always going to be the one or
two people whose dog craps everywhere or can't be. Hey,
it's going to ruin it for everybody, But I'd be
fine with dogs all over this place. Food perks thirty
three percent anticipate free snacks and lunches. Flexible work. We
used to have those, and then people got fired. Flexible
work hours. One in three demand a four day work week, okay,
(12:18):
and then expanding time off. Twenty five percent expects sabbaticals
for personal growth or travel.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Sabbatical now that I can rock with.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, my sabbatical would be go sabbatical and then when
you come back, your key card didn't work anymore because
we found someone else exactly to yeap it up all morning.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah. I've always thought that. Tho.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Those places that have like gyms in there and restaurants
and you know whatever, they free coffee, dinner, breakfast, if
they if your office serves free breakfast, lunch, and dinner,
they that's them saying if you want to work breakfast
to dinner, that's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Like people will get tricked by this.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
If you're eating dinner at work and you also eat
breakfast at work, that means you've been there for more
than eight hours, right, So like that's all good and stuff,
and that would be cool to have that for free,
and I guess you could take it on your way
into your way out or whatever. But I mean, at
the same time, these places that are like, oh yeah,
they got bads in here, well, that sounds an awful lot.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Like I don't know a prison or daycare.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Like you want a rec room, you want a sandbox,
you want a nap room.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
It sounds like a daycare.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Like give me a desk and like air conditioning and
make me only work four days a week. And I'm fine.
I don't need a basketball court or ping pong table.
I don't need an omelet ball or on any of that.
Four days a week and not four days a week,
ten hours a day, four days a week, eight hours.
Thirty two hour work week is what I'm saying. Thirty
two hour. I believe that everybody could get just as
(13:43):
much or more done in thirty two as they do
in forty hours.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yeah, I firmly believe that.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Because we'd have to cut back on all the meetings
that don't need to be and all the emails that
don't need to be and all the zoom meetings that
don't need to be because only got thirty two hours.
We only got so many days, so we got to
get too. We gotta be more efficient.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Let's do it.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Think that's been proven actually, but yeah, this is all
stuff that jen Z apparently expects in their office. And
if you're going to these three states, then I guess
you can expect at some point to spend more on
only fans than everybody else. Because the study done by
the search engine only finders the United States of lonely fans,
which found states spend the most annually and only fans subscriptions.
(14:21):
West Virginia number one, Nevada, Colorado, Illinois, and Iowa the
highest spenders and only fans. Mississippi spent the least per
ten thousand residents, with fifty four grand per ten thousand residents.
The rest of the bottom were Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, and Alaska.
It's National Kissing Day, National HVAC Tech Day, and we
(14:44):
need you right now. That's for sure, one hundred and
ninety eight thousand degrees. I'd say a lot of places.
It's National onion ring Day and National chocolate Eclaire day,
not to be compused to any other form of a

it has nothing to do with anything except at sports
and kind of crazy do you name? Gideon Lampron is
his name. He's a Bowling Green college linebacker and he's
getting attention for his status, but also because of his
middle name, Espn. His name is actually on his birth certificate,
(05:20):
Gideon Espn Lampron in capitol letters. His dad, who's a
huge sports fan, snuck the name Espn onto the certificate
while mom was asleep after birth. So this is kind
of like what the nurses did in your mom. I
was gonna say, that's like history repeating itself, because the
nurses named you because they believed that your mom, who
(05:42):
was new to this country. Yes, maybe didn't understand the
English language.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Well enough, right, but you know my name?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
The craziest part is like she said what she said, right.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
But then they said no because that might be confused
with the common street name in this area.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Which is spelled the exact same way, just pronounced different.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
But that's okay. You're allowed to have whatevery name you want.
You're allowed to tell people how to pronounce it too.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, and my name, right, my name is very much
a name of her native land.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, native right, right, native land. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So anyway, this guy's the middle name is ESPN and
mom had no knowledge of this because she was asleep
after you know, extracting a human from her body. And
he thought that would be cute to sneak that in.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Oh that I would thought he's grown to be like
successful now and sports.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, so it kind of worked out, I guess.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Testless highly anticipated robotaxi services launched at Austin as of Sunday.
They're a ten to twenty driverless model wise available during
what amounts to a test running. Elon must says the
service will ultimately be expanded. For now, rides will cost
a flat four twenty he's so cute with them, and
a safety monitor will be seated in the front passenger
seat of each robotaxi.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
So that's a good way to start it out. You know,
let's have a guy.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
So it's not technically autonomous, like the thing will pull
up in front of your house or whatever, and there'll
be a man there and now this or woman. This
person's not doing anything, but they're just there to make
sure that this thing didn't go way more on you
and go run in circles and you can't get out
or start running people over making illegal turns.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
But this is the future of rides.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Here, Tesla will remotely monitor the cars what to be
available to pick up passengers in a limited geo fenced area.
Per ap Only two passengers, both of whom must be
over eighteen, will be allowed on each ride. The rolloute
seems to be invite only and it's not clear when
it will be open to the public.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But this is where we're headed. Guys. Is driverless ubers? Wow?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I think we knew that, but are we ready? Would
you get in a car that pulls up in front
of your house with no driver? I think I would
at this point really well, because we got people like
you that are watching TikTok while they're driving, So I mean,
maybe I'm safer.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
This isn't about me, okay, it's about your safety. And
if you want to get out the car, the door
locks and it's going and circles in.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
What are you going to do if someone just text it?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
He sounds truly baffled that it's not common knowledge that
airplanes can refull in the I did not know that
people didn't know that air military aircraft can refuel in
the air, though, I was like, everybody.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Knew that.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Planes Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I guess I truly thought that was common knowledge.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
No nuclear codes.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
That's what's my cross body perse I it. I'm carrying
that cross body purse around for it in the moment
they might call. They did call me over the weekend
and said, what are the cod what are the codes?
I was on a lake, though, and I didn't have
my cross body purse on the lake. I didn't wear
it shirtless, and so they were like, what are the coaches?
I'm like, I can't tell you. I don't know. It
was a crisis. It was awful. It was so terrible.
(08:36):
So here's one that's going to throw you off today
to start your Monday. As you shift through all the
unwanted spam emails in your inbox, you might be tempted
to do. What if you're getting a bunch of emails
that you don't want, What are you tempted to do?
What would be the most obvious thing to do if
you want to stop the emails, delete them, or which
or there's one further step which is the most obvious,
(08:58):
which seems to be the last step that I take unsubscribe, yes, right,
so I delete them. Then I get annoyed they come back,
and then I'm like, oh, I guess I could just unsubscribe,
but then I don't. Well, it turns out that might
be the worst thing you can do, with cybersecurity experts
now warning that responding to such a message or link
may actually invite more correspondents that leads to future threats.
(09:19):
This is from the Wall Street Journal. One in six
hundred and forty four clicks on unsubscribe links ends up
directing the email recipient to possibly malicious websites. Selecting unsubscribed
could also let whoever is on the other end know
that you're a real person who interacts with spam, and
that can make you a bigger target. So I can't
even hit the unsubscribed button anymore without opening myself up
(09:42):
to something. But that's why a lot of those weird
texts that you'll get like hey, how you ban or
like hey is this still your number? Or like you
ever get those that are like random, And then I
guess that's all that is is to see if there's
a real person on the other end who like me.
A million times before I finally figured it out is like, uh, oh,
who for my past is coming back? And then it
bothers me all day like who's asking? And I like
(10:04):
try and reverse search the number only to find out
that it's BS. But that's all that's about is they
want you to respond, so they're like, Okay, there's a
real person and then they sell your number.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Oh yeah, the minute that I got to text us out,
how you ben? I knew it wasn't like it wasn't
going to happen.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
How you bet?
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Right, Like, no one cares how I bet?
Speaker 1 (10:19):
No, one just reaches it.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
No one cares.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
No one reaches out calling. This is how you bet. No,
you don't care how I bet? But later you'll get
one from me and I'll mean it. But how you're bet?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
So instead you're supposed to click on the list unsubscribe header,
hyperlink buttons that email services embed, and email subject lines
or headers. Okay, that sounds a little advanced. Instead of interacting,
mark a messages spam once it comes in and be
done with it, and then set up filters to screen
out particularly persistent emailers so that those messages go right
(10:47):
to spam, or set up an alternate email account that
you can use to sign up for deals, coupons, contests,
or whatever so that your regular email doesn't get bombard
And I got a couple more for you here. Gen
Z has unbelievable job requirements, according to a new survey
from resume dot io. Fromparents dot com, no, they find
that Generation Z has unique expectations for work environments. Yunique,
(11:12):
So gen Z. This is what a pair according to
a survey. And sometimes I think that gen Z is
being done dirty because this is because how many people
were asked about this and who were they?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Sometimes I think this is getting a little REDI I
don't know this. I mean, Bella has never asked me
for a nap room. Okay, she also doesn't. I'm not
allowed to look her in the eye either, so I
don't know, if you know, maybe she wants them, but
a nap room. Sixteen percent of gen Z workers under
twenty eight considered nap rooms essential in the workplace.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Hey love fun rooms.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Around twenty percent expect offices to have recreational areas with
ping pong pet friendly policies. Twenty percent require workplaces to
be pet friendly.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I agree, it's cute.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
That'd be fine.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah, except there's always going to be the one or
two people whose dog craps everywhere or can't be. Hey,
it's going to ruin it for everybody, But I'd be
fine with dogs all over this place. Food perks thirty
three percent anticipate free snacks and lunches. Flexible work. We
used to have those, and then people got fired. Flexible
work hours. One in three demand a four day work week, okay,
(12:18):
and then expanding time off. Twenty five percent expects sabbaticals
for personal growth or travel.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Sabbatical now that I can rock with.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, my sabbatical would be go sabbatical and then when
you come back, your key card didn't work anymore because
we found someone else exactly to yeap it up all morning.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah. I've always thought that. Tho.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Those places that have like gyms in there and restaurants
and you know whatever, they free coffee, dinner, breakfast, if
they if your office serves free breakfast, lunch, and dinner,
they that's them saying if you want to work breakfast
to dinner, that's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Like people will get tricked by this.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
If you're eating dinner at work and you also eat
breakfast at work, that means you've been there for more
than eight hours, right, So like that's all good and stuff,
and that would be cool to have that for free,
and I guess you could take it on your way
into your way out or whatever. But I mean, at
the same time, these places that are like, oh yeah,
they got bads in here, well, that sounds an awful lot.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Like I don't know a prison or daycare.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Like you want a rec room, you want a sandbox,
you want a nap room.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
It sounds like a daycare.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Like give me a desk and like air conditioning and
make me only work four days a week. And I'm fine.
I don't need a basketball court or ping pong table.
I don't need an omelet ball or on any of that.
Four days a week and not four days a week,
ten hours a day, four days a week, eight hours.
Thirty two hour work week is what I'm saying. Thirty
two hour. I believe that everybody could get just as
(13:43):
much or more done in thirty two as they do
in forty hours.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yeah, I firmly believe that.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Because we'd have to cut back on all the meetings
that don't need to be and all the emails that
don't need to be and all the zoom meetings that
don't need to be because only got thirty two hours.
We only got so many days, so we got to
get too. We gotta be more efficient.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Let's do it.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Think that's been proven actually, but yeah, this is all
stuff that jen Z apparently expects in their office. And
if you're going to these three states, then I guess
you can expect at some point to spend more on
only fans than everybody else. Because the study done by
the search engine only finders the United States of lonely fans,
which found states spend the most annually and only fans subscriptions.
(14:21):
West Virginia number one, Nevada, Colorado, Illinois, and Iowa the
highest spenders and only fans. Mississippi spent the least per
ten thousand residents, with fifty four grand per ten thousand residents.
The rest of the bottom were Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, and Alaska.
It's National Kissing Day, National HVAC Tech Day, and we
(14:44):
need you right now. That's for sure, one hundred and
ninety eight thousand degrees. I'd say a lot of places.
It's National onion ring Day and National chocolate Eclaire day,
not to be compused to any other form of a
