Speaker 2 (00:35):
It's time to pop the top, break your hands in
and grab a treat from Pristina's cookie jar.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Let's talk about some ADIS data. Maybe it's pronounced addis.
American Time Use Survey.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
American Time Use Survey.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Tens of thousand adults would do this survey every day,
and then you evaluate. First off, you say what you
did that day, and then you evaluate what type of
day you had typical, better than typical, or worse than typical. Okay,
out of more than one hundred activities, the one activity
(01:32):
most commonly associated with having a good day was going
to work.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Is not sex. What a thrill you get to go
to work every day? You know?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I know people who have made a ton of money
get real bored with not working and they miss having
something to do. Maybe there's something to that, Maybe it
gives you the purpose you need.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
I was about to say the purpose, because I think
most people when they're retired, they they're like, man, what
am I supposed to do all day?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:01):
That's when Ben said that. It took me to exactly
what you're talking about. So back when my grandfather retired,
I was working with my dad and my grandfather, Okay
and my grandfather the electrical contracting business. My grandfather started
at my dad ran it. I was working for them.
And this is before Ben and I got full time
radio jobs. And my grandfather was known all around town
(02:24):
as if you were looking for some old part you
could come out to my grandfather. He's in his eighties.
He's still out there in all these warehouses, driving around
on a forklift in his eighties, and he you'd say, hey,
I need this one seventy five KBA transform.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
He would know the serial number. It was bananas.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
And I never knew this about my grandfather, and I
got to witness his first hand. When he stopped doing that,
he deteriorated so quickly it was astonishing.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
And I'm watching my dad now.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
My dad is going to be eighty five in November,
about the same age granddaddy when Granddaddy stopped doing that,
and my dad still goes in. He sold the company,
but he still goes into Wait Electric three sometimes four
days a week. They he helps take off plans, he
helps maintain relationships. His wife goes in there with him
and they are just cranking.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
You called him granddaddy.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
That's my Yeah, I call it amazing. It sounds it's
a very Jerry Jones thing. Grandaddy. Well, I think I've
told you just before. So Granddaddy's wife, my dad's mom,
mem she's Jerry Jones. I've told you all. I've told
you all about her. She's the one that was left
on her own as a teenager. Her mom left her
on her own and went to go to Chicago with
a gangster, and my grandmother had to figure out how
to be on her own as like a fifteen year
(03:37):
old and I've always thought, man, Mimi is exactly like
Jerry Jones. She's kind of an old hill billy. She
has all these sayings and she will fight like hell,
I'm badass. Yeah's Granddaddy's crazy country. I Me and Granddaddy, Granddaddy.
I never had a grandparent, really, did you? What do
you call your grandparents? I have two Puppau's Papa Buddy,
(03:58):
Papa Clyde.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Me on.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Now that's fantastic, man, that's that southern thing man me
Me and granddaddy Pop Paul.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Mine was just Pop Paul, which still sounds weird to
say pop ball.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
It's Beverly hillbilly style.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
When you look more into this survey, by the way,
it does say the ideal amount of time working was
at six hours a day. If people worked more than
six hours a day, their typical or their happiness went down.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
I thought you were going to say, if they work
more than six hours a day, they're called full.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Time, right.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Well, but then when you think about it, God went
back when I had a desk job, an eight hour
day desk job. I mean you get an hour for lunch, right, Yeah,
so that's only seven hours, and then you kind of
goof off for another hour too. How many people are
straight up working, just straight from working for eight.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Hours a day only factories? Yeah, and people people that
do counter sales. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
They don't get breaks. They're going the full time.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
It is pretty great when within your job structure you
do have a place where you can hide for a
little bit.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Yeah, it's always awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Yeah, go cry in the bathroom for a bit. Something
else added in this, They said, I thought.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
This was going to be about her loving her job.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Here she's like, yeah, I need a few breaks to
go cry.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
No show in the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I was talking about that desk job I had right,
that not a joke. Seeing friends almost always led to
a better day for most people, but if it lasted
longer than two hours, that wasn't the case.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
It would go down.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
So people enjoyed seeing family, family members, and friends, but
if it was more than two hours, they were out.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Why everyone hates holidays.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Exercising for up to four hours a day also associated
with a good day.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Yeah, I know what I know.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Four hours is way too much.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Who that is not training for their professional sports job
the Olympics, or is a professional trainer can train four
hours a day I have Do you.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Have time to go make income?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Right? You have to work at the training business or
the pro sports business, Like.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I have a hard time getting just thirty minutes in
a day. But they're saying, I mean, endorphins comes with exercise,
so any amount of exercise always led to a good day. Yeah,
it does say this, though no amount of relaxing and
watching TV was linked to having a good day. So
really the researchers are saying, the main thing to take
away from this is just get out and do something.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
If you want to have a good day, just do something.
Don't sit up pretty sit around pretty good.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
All right?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Thank you, Christina, welcome. I hope you don't cry in
the bathroom today. This show coming up next. Let's go
around the sports. It's a major superstar letting down the Metroplex.
We'll discuss in minutes. Don't miss it before we get there.
