Speaker 1 (00:21):
Robin Kidd now with the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
So, this is a lady from from Texas who's gotten
herself into all sorts of trouble. The names of Monica
and she had a reasonably small following on TikTok, and
yet this has had millions of views. She got out
of a pilates car a class. She's in her car
and she said this.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
This may be a heart take for some people, but
if you're two hundred pounds, you shouldn't be in a
plotis class. There's no reason why they should allow two
hundred pound people in a level two class. There's some
or you shouldn't be allowed to be a plotate's instructor
if you have a gut.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
One.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Sorry, you're going to defend that.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Well, not the comments, not what she said, and I
completely disagree with what she said. By the way, two
hundred pounds is ninety kilos, which means I would not
be allowed to go into her polarates class in her
perfect world. However, she has since lost her job. She's
a dental assistant. She's lost her job. She's been kicked
out of the Polarates class, which the Polariti's class getting
(01:26):
kicked out of that I don't mind so much, But
she's had a real world consequence and that she's lost
her her ability to work because she said something stupid
on TikTok. She gave her opinion. As much as I
disagree with the opinion, she gave her opinion on TikTok
thinking this is just going to be a stupid little video.
And now she's lost her job. And I don't think
you should be. I think you should be allowed to
(01:47):
even if I disagree with you. I think you should
be allowed to say what you want to say on
social media without necessarily losing. Like it doesn't affect her
ability to be a dentist or a dental assistant.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
It kind of does because it impacts her ability to
deal with the general public, which is what social media is.
You put something out there and the world can see it. Yeah, anyway,
I'm having popcorn over here.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Yeah that's good, but I'm off it.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
That's not You don't have to you don't have to
like her, But why do you have to get fired?
Speaker 6 (02:17):
Well, probably the code of conduct with her job. I
don't know, like the rules you can't be shame of
people on the internet and get away with it. I
really don't like it at all, Like that's it's just
you're getting up someone's actually trying to better themselves. You're
you're trying to say people can't better themselves, people can't
go into somewhere and saying that, like.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Those two worlds are not going to collise, and it
does happens everywhere that is naive to it, Like that
is just ridiculous. And this whole I mean, this is
my personal hate that you have the right to say
whatever you want on social media and it's someone else's
problem if they read it. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Well that's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
It's up to the employer with what they do. Like
it's not everyone probably would.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
But doesn't.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
She did. It doesn't affect her ability to go, Yeah,
you've got plark on, you know, tooth number four And
I'm just going to give that a clean just because
she's she's obviously what.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
If someone's seeing that video and when the dentists next
day and said I'm not coming here anymore, she'sier.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
She'll have a mask on. She'd have one of those
masks on there don't. I don't even know what my
dentist looks like without a mask because they've always got
the thing on. No one would recognize. It wouldn't make
any difference.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Okay, but so what is the consequence of doing stuff
like that?
Speaker 3 (03:30):
I mean, she's still getting shamed, like, she's still getting
absolute abuse. People are telling her, you know, she should
kill herself and all sorts of stuff, getting all that.
So she's already getting retribution. I just don't think it needs.
She doesn't need to lose her job over being stupid
and saying and saying what she believes. I mean, of
course she has retracted the comment.
Speaker 7 (03:49):
Now, Hey guys, I wanted to come on here and
just formally apologize for my last few videos. They're nasty.
My membership we got revoked and I was told not
to go back towards so you know, I've learned that
it's not okay and it's just not pretty and it's nasty,
and I just feel really bad.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
So she got but she done that, she said something stupid.
People told her that that that's not okay.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Only done that because she lost a job and got spained.
If she did if she didn't do if all that
didn't happen, never been a polished.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Of course, we know that. But she's a dentist or
she works in a dental so you don't to do with.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
She'd have a real life consequence for her social media
opinions or something.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
She said on TikTok.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Social media is so big now you can't You can't
for us because but that's for us.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
We're in a public eye, and football players are in
the public eye. She's not.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, but she's also saying stupid things that are hurtful
to people. At what point is there a consequence where
you yeah, of course it did. There's millions, and you're
just going to tell me that her hundred people. Oh well,
I just posted it to my friends. That's not how
social media works. I can't. I can't see how else.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
You do it. But but if you don't, if you
if you don't, I mean, she didn't make it go viral.
It went viral because it's disgusting, But she didn't make
it go viral. She just put it out there. Yeah,
but so she's lost a job. So no one's allowed
to have You're not allowed to have your opinion.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Not if it is so awful to other human beings. No,
that's not the society we live in. It isn't It
shouldn't be. If you're going to make if what you
say and you put it on social media, and you
have a right to say it, you feel you have
a right, but you can hurt other people. I'm sorry,
I don't agree. I know Trump disagrees with me. I
know he'd be calling that fake news.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Thirty five. By the way, that's not.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
The world I want to live in.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Well, I'm not saying it is the world we want
to live in, but people should be allowed to have
their opinion without losing their jobs.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Joe, of if Switch, what would you like to say?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I think she messed around and she found out the
consequences of messing around. If she had said the same
comments about a person of color or one with a
disability or anything like that, she would have been instantly fired,
no matter which way you look at it, just because
it's a fat person.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Okay, Joe, that's a great point. And Kip is now pondering,
Jim Bomber, what do you think?
Speaker 8 (06:10):
Good morning everybody. Well, Kip, I must say I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Oh, thank you?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yes, agree?
Speaker 4 (06:18):
With you.
Speaker 8 (06:21):
Yeah, where where where does it draw the line? Where
does an employer draw the line at being an employer
and part of our personal life? Yes, but the employee
has overstepped the mark. People do far worse in the
workplace and don't suffer these consequences. I don't agree with
(06:41):
what she said, being a former over ninety kilo person,
what she said was inappropriate, in a correct, incorrect, and it.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Was just wrong.
Speaker 8 (06:52):
However, having people say to her on on on the
platform that she should kill herself or she should know
So where where where is the repercussion for these.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
People exactly exactly the exact same platform saying things that
are disgusting, and they're not getting fired because you're allowed
to pile on to someone.
Speaker 8 (07:13):
You don't know that this is appropriate. We have a
right to say things. What she said was wrong to
put I just toward that stupid conversation. Have it with
the idiot, mate, that's fine, keep it amongst your friends,
but you don't do that. It's inappropriate. But the employer
has overstepped the mark.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Yeah, she should be getting fired, coming thick and fast
on both sides of this platform, So come on, keep
them coming on the text line. People are going absolutely
not so for a nine nine seven three nine seven three.
People are demanding their rights always conveniently forget that they
come with responsibilities. It's like a coin has two sides,
(07:55):
actions and consequences. That's and from Kip Ring.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Yeah, I believe in freedom of speech, but what if
your comment is racist or sexist? I mean, I know,
and that does change things. But I guess fat shaming
falls in falls under that banner. She's definitely doing that.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
It's interesting though I have I've been trying really hard
to kind of sit in your camp and the one
thing I would but the one thing I would say
is that people like us have go through really strict
codes of conduct.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Yeah, we know we're not allowed to say things like that, and.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
We know that there will absolutely be consequences. I guess
sometimes in the real world people don't understand that if
they don't have a job that demands that they operate
in a certain way with the general public.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Because she's a dental assistant, and I'm sure that there's
plumbers listening right now that have said way worse things
or posted worse things and they haven't lost their jobs
because people go, well, you expect that you well, that's
not well, it's just your opinion. That's outside of work.
It's nothing to do with it.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
Code of conduct. Then for an every job or most jobs,
it's not okay.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Then, Emma of alex Hills, you're a teacher, there's a
code of conduct for you. I'm sure, yeah, absolutely, And
I think what's important to know is that if you're
bringing your business into.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
District, pitch by what you say, you know you need
to be standing behind what you say and also standing
behind those consequences. And I think there's a bit of
a mistake about public opinion versus your opinion. When you
put something publicly, then you need to potentially suffer the
public consequences related to that.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Well, she certainly done that. She lost her job. She's
not allowed to go to plats anymore. I agree with
the plarties one you feel, we've been in her class.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
And you'll be stoked to know that Colleen's just having
a random crack at me. Way to go, Corey, get
down off your soapbox
Speaker 3 (09:39):
