Speaker 1 (00:00):
Order.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's a fresh shew. It's Kiki's court, all right, the
honorable Leak is here, Judge Kiki. Let's take it away.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Let's get in the courtroom. The gavel has been hit.
This case, says, hey, Kiki. My name is Pam, and
I need you to keep it real with me about this.
My daughter is a senior in high school and she
landed her first job at a we'll say a local
fast food restaurant. I was against it at first, but
she promised me that she would not let it affect
(00:30):
her school work. And after a month or so working
there after school, I noticed that when I would go
pick her up from time to time, it got later
and later each week. Sometimes she wouldn't clock out until
ten pm, although her scheduled time was from four pm
to nine pm. When I asked her why she was
clocking out so late, she kept saying, my boss said,
(00:52):
I can't leave until my prep.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Work is done.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
I told her that I'm not okay with her working
that late, and to tell her boss that she has
to leave by nine o'clock to get ready for school.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Well, it only got worse.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
My daughter started taking Uber's home and would not come
in the house sometimes until eleven PM. So I finally
had enough. I went to my daughter's job and confronted
her manager. It went bad real fast when the manager
told me, ma'am, you don't work here and you will
not dictate how I manage my employees. We had a
tense exchange and I left. But when my daughter returned
(01:26):
to work, she was fired and the manager completely threw
me under the bus. And now my daughter is mad
at me. She hasn't spoken to me in weeks. And
although our agreement was that her grades would couldn't slip
and they haven't. As a mother, I still feel that
I did what was right.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
What do you think, right, Judge Kiki?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well, okay, she's a senior in high school. I don't
know about it years old exactly, And I know for
you and I, at sixteen, we were managers, right, Yeah,
like I was. I was a manager at KFC.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Blockbuster Video. Yeah, I was sixteen years old. I was
the assistant manager. There was a store manager, but I
did have a key to the store and coach of
the safe. Yes, at sixteen years old, which seems really
like a terrible idea in retrospect, But yeah, you know, I.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Was managing like X cons, you know, shout out to them, and.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
You know I had I had grown men and women
who I was mad. How must that have felt in retrospect,
by the way that you go to work and a
sixteen year old it's telling you to mop the floor
or go put those videos back. I never really thought
about that in retrospect. How ridiculous is anyway?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
So at that age, though, we took on those responsibilities,
and I feel like everything I did at that age
shaped me to be the responsible, somewhat responsible adult that
I am today. And so I can see if your
daughter was fifteen sixteen, then maybe going to the job
to intervene is okay. But at this age, Mom, she's
getting ready to go off to college, she's getting ready
(02:56):
to start her life. You can tell her how you feel,
and you can tell her what you will allow in
your household, but to go to her place of business,
to me, is just overbearing and unnecessary. And I think
you crossed the line with your daughter and you didn't
let her make her own decisions to kind of manage
her life and figure out how to be an adult.
And I think what you're doing is just gonna cripple
(03:17):
her in the long run. You can't go up to
her job every time she's into it with her boss
or she doesn't like well, you know what I'm saying,
Like you have to teach her how to handle that.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Well, you guys are the jury eight five to five
five nine one one oh three five. You can call
it text the same number eight five five five nine
one three five. That's where for me going to the
to the job and talking to the boss, that's where
I went sideways. Like you can say to your kid,
here are the hours that I'm okay with you being
out right, and so you need to find a job
(03:44):
that fits within that. But like going to the place
and saying, hey, I need you to run your business
differently because I don't want my kid out laid is
not probably going to accomplish anything. If anything, it's going
to inhibit your kid from success because they're just going
to probably fire her him or her in this case,
because it's like, well, I need somebody to be here
until this time, and so if it's not her, then
it needs to be somebody else.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Absolutely, And you know these managers, they have a business
to run, and when your kid is working there they're
an employee. You know, they're not your baby, they're not
your little girl. That's an employee. And you know, Jason
runs a tight ship around here, so like I couldn't imagine,
you know, somebody's mom coming up to you telling them
they can't work an event.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You know, well, my mom knows it all the time.
Actually she calls up here and says, where's the podcast.
It's not up here soon enough and yeah, dms everybody. Yeah,
so that actually that does happen. But she tells us
to get to work.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, she's like she said, get up and work. Yeah,
I love your mama. Fred. Well, I mean, what if
you had an employee Jason who was like whose parent
was basically like, I'm fine with this, my kid working
for you. I just needed to be between these hours.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Yeah, I mean, honestly, I think I wouldn't be able
to talk to them like they're not I can't discuss
an employment with someone that's not the employee, especially if
you're an adult. So that's where like the line Teeter Totter's
for me, Like, I know she's a senior, so she
could be seventeen or eighteen. I feel like if she's seventeen,
the parents still has a little bit of a right
to like engage in that because they are still the
(05:11):
protective guardian of her right right. But when she's eighteen,
like I know, it's just like a year. So it
sounds kind of arbitrary, but like you're an adult now,
like in the eyes of you know, the world, Like
you're an adult now, so you need to handle it.
And as a parent, you can no longer get involved
or control that.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, because Blockbuster Video, which for those of you who
don't know what that is, and sadly there are probably
other people that do it. Was it all over the
place and they had you know, you go in there
and you could ran to movie. This is before everything
was streaming, and they closed at midnight. They were open
I think ten to midnight. And so if you close
the store at midnight, you were there till probably twelve
thirty maybe one sometimes we do inventory. Then we were
(05:48):
there all night. And so it got to the point
where my mom's like, I don't want, I don't need
you in a store at midnight with cash, money, right,
and other valuable items when you're sixteen years old, tell
them that you can't close which I did, and they oblige.
They worked with me on that, but at the same time,
it wasn't for me to tell them. I mean, I
(06:10):
probably should have gotten fired for that because it's like, well,
then that means that of the you know, two other
managers there are that those two have to do all
of the closings because you can't. And I understood her point,
but at the same time, it was like, this is
not good for my ascension at blackwisterd viting the district
manager or whenever I was going to be at seventeen.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Yeah, I'm not crazy to be honest about the management
of said plays. And I only say that because if
they know their employee is in high school, like I'm
not saying it's the responsibility to kind of teeter totter
around them.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But based on their.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
Schedule, I would say, okay, maybe I'll schedule you to
this time, knowing you can do your side work and
lead by this time, or put you for weekends only,
because at the end of the day, I do believe
that that students should be in school. I think majority
of us will had like jobs in high school. I
get that, but now as a mom, I don't know
if I'm comfortable with my daughter working in high school
like that, I really don't.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I want her to focus on.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Being a teenager, a kid getting good grades and doing
what she got to do in her life, whatever that
might be.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
But Paula, are you guys say that in the beginning?
You can't. You can't take the job correct knowing what
the parameters are ahead of time. Now, if the manager
changed it, if it was like, well we agreed to
days and now you've got me on at night, well
then that's a conversation. But I also think that's a
conversation that the daughter needs to have and that mom
doesn't need to come in there and handle it. For
a lot of reasons. Hey, Mike, how you doing good?
(07:25):
How are you guys? Mike? Good morning? So this actually
happened to you?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Yes, yes, my daughter sought worldly at high school at
can't play School. She got a job at a little restaurant.
I initially went with her, but I made her do
all the talk and what time the managers started having
her clothes a kind of clock more than one or
two times a week. I talked to my daughter, I said,
how do you feel about this? You gotta handle situice,
(07:51):
and I'm not gonna stop in I see the mom's point.
How was Therrid City? But you cannot get involved like that,
embarrass her daughter like that. You've got to learn how
to deal with these situations. Here was it the storekeky it?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Another restaurant, a fast food restaurant, very popular one.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was just kidding because it's your story.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
The Stort's only open on Wednesdays.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
Absolutely, absolutely, Yeah, So you gotta teach your kids to
handle these situations that are going to be rough. But
that's only gonna make them grow and learn you can, baby.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, I think you're doing a disservice. I mean, and
obviously when they're young, but seventeen eighteen year I mean,
you're considered an adult here in many many ways, so
you you would be doing them a disservice to not
let them handle it no matter what happens, because now
would be the time, by the way, to go in
there and say that and get fired. Honestly, if you're
seventeen years old, not that that's a good thing, like
you still live at home, whatever, Whenever you stand on
(08:53):
your ground and you're gonna get fired, like now's the time.
I suppose because you're your parents an you know, you
get a place of sleep hopefully whatever else. Thank you, Mike,
have a great day.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Hey, I'm number one, number one.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Ben.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
I'm telling you from day one.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
You guys, well, thank you. I'll let you and Nita
and I'll let you and Danida the undisputed listener number
one of thirteen. I'll let you guys fight it out, but.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Trust me, it's me. Have a great thing aday, Mike.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Guys, listen, if you're new to the show, we only
have thirteen listeners. We've only ever had thirteen listeners. They
keep putting us on different places. We still only have
thirteen listeners. But even listener number two, three, four, Aaron mccafy, Meal,
West Loop, Tom Missus, Genes C and aj even they
agree that Danide is listening number one. So the fact
that Mike is coming in here out of nowhere, I
(09:44):
like that. I just don't know. And then of course
we only have two listeners or three, we think, but
two in Salt Lake City, Jerem and when Bendy, so
we we actually know them personally. That's where we're at,
you know, this is the states that we're at now.
So Today's our first today West Palm Beach. If you listening,
then go ahead and give us a text, and then
you can be the first and only person listening. If
(10:05):
you text us, there's a good chance so there are
zero people letter week.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
I was told that we are on the air in Florida.
I was told that doesn't mean that anyone has us
on the air. Then I got it. So, Hi, Natalie,
how you doing? Natalie? Uh No, sorry, Rosalie. I'd rather
go to Rosalia first. Natalie can wait, Natalie, be patient, Rosalie,
you go first. Hi Rosalia, Rosalia?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
But yeah, Hi, how are you see?
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Now?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
There's the time when I tried to get fancy with
him again and what Rosali? And and I just said
it wrong. Anyway, Rosalia, they got to put stuff in
fanatics for me on this thing, so I don't screw
it up. What did you want to say? Kiki's cord.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Agreed with Kiki one. I can't embarage your kids like that.
I have been working since I was fifteen. I have
been in a situation on the.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
Other end of that.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
If my were my parents were definitely upsett working late
and affecting my But if my parents came to my
job and did that, I definitely would not be motivated
to get a different job at that age. But my
advice to the mom and co new mom of two now,
especially girls, is open. Just have her If it was
(11:18):
bothering her daughter working late, affecting her grades, she should
have an open communication with her daughter saying, hey, listen,
I know you're working very late. Clean talk to me
if something's going on there. Let's have that open end communications.
So if something is occurring that is inappropriate or whatever
the case may be, she would be comfortable enough to
go to her mom and you know, resolved. That's when
(11:42):
I would step in and go to the manager, and
you know, all hell would break loose, should you soone
something else going on? You know that is just outside
of working her responsibilities.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Well, I doubt by the way, if the boss wasn't
agreeable to the employee, you know, expressing her concern, then
mom coming in over the top probably wasn't going to
change his mind. If anything, it's just like, oh great,
now I get to deal with two of them. Never mind,
I'll find somebody else, right exactly, Yeah, thank you, Cindy.
Excuse me, Rosalia, I have a good day. I'm like
(12:15):
very distracted today. I got so many people calling. Yeah,
a lot of people call Rosalie, Cindy, but let's Natalie Now,
Hi Natalie. I don't know. It's just a lot of
blinking things in my face and I'm very I don't know. Hi, Hi,
What did you want to say? Kikey's Court, by the way,
in synopsis, Keiki Yes, this woman ma'amout out the maam
(12:36):
is concerned her daughter was working at a fast food
restaurant but working really late, and she wasn't comfortable with that.
So she eventually went in and spoke to the manager
on behalf of her daughter, and that did not go well.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Yeah, she got our daughter fired from my first.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Job because she didn't want her daughter in a fast
food restaurant till eleven and twelve o'clock at night. What
do you think?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
So when I was seventeen, I started a job because
I wanted to be as independent as possible, and my
parents were fully on support of that, and they were
always said that they're going to be in the background
if they always if I ever needed them, But I
was going to resolve my own problems. By the time
I was eighteen, I had three jobs. One was an
externship that I didn't get paid for, and I was
(13:16):
in two restaurant jobs, and I had college. So me
starting off being independent on my own actually gave me
a boost up. And when I started doing things completely
on my own, And if I didn't have that, I
probably would be very set back by the time I
was nineteen twenty and actually doing my own stuff. But
(13:40):
I mean, I can see if it was like a
fifteen sixteen year old and parents, you know me, to
have like that waiver signed and everything. Sure, but if
they're trying to maybe their kids forever, they're never going
to grow up.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, I think you're right. Thank you, Natalie, have a
great day diet to thank you. No, I think that's true.
I mean, at the same time, No, it's like, if
you don't want your kid out till midnight, then don't
want them apply for a job at a place that
to open until midnight, right, I mean, or just again
specify from the beginning. Hey, look, you can take the job,
but let him know I don't want my seventeen year
old out until when, at whatever time, And Crystal, you
(14:15):
make it. We make a good point. Crystal, good morning, Hey,
good morning guys. Hi, what did you want to say?
Good morning?
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Hey kiking?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
What's that girl?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Oh no, you're on there.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
Let the record reflect.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Oh okay, you know, and actually get out here with
your disrespect, you.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Know, because no, no, no, no no, the mother had spunken.
The mother said, not after nine pm. Okay, I don't
care about en. I don't care about eleven. The mother said,
nine pm is nine pm, my home, my rules. I
don't care about anything else. Nine pm is nine pm.
So when I said you get off work at nine pm,
(14:56):
that's it, that's all. The daughter did not listen to
my rules. No more jobs, whether the manager fires you
or I fired you, and listen to my house, my rules,
and my house.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Now I feel you on that point. I think the
issue is she could have had that conversation with her
daughter instead of going directly to the daughter's manager, because
now you put your daughter in an awkward situation that
she didn't need to be in. You could have just said, hey,
this is it, quit the job, you know, But now
you've gotten her fired and she's like, now she doesn't
even want to speak to her mom anymore.
Speaker 7 (15:28):
That's okay. You should have listened to me in the
first place, that predicament when you didn't get off at
nine o'clock.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Crystal, so this none of this would have happened if
she had just followed directions to begin with.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Correct, you embarrassed both of us. Now your manager had
to listen.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
To me, Merys, how old are your kids? Listen?
Speaker 7 (15:50):
They about twelve thirteen?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Oh boy, all right, they're trying to get jobs at
the first food restaurant. I hope you can pick them
up at midnight.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Right.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
I'll be up there too if this happens enough.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Thank you, Crystal, have a great day.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Love you.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Honestly say, I think it was Crystal's court, to be
honest with you around, I don't. I don't think it
was Crystal. I don't think it was Kigy's court at all.
I need to clock out. Entertainmer reports that
Order.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's a fresh shew. It's Kiki's court, all right, the
honorable Leak is here, Judge Kiki. Let's take it away.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Let's get in the courtroom. The gavel has been hit.
This case, says, hey, Kiki. My name is Pam, and
I need you to keep it real with me about this.
My daughter is a senior in high school and she
landed her first job at a we'll say a local

she promised me that she would not let it affect

other people that do it. Was it all over the
place and they had you know, you go in there
and you could ran to movie. This is before everything
was streaming, and they closed at midnight. They were open
I think ten to midnight. And so if you close
the store at midnight, you were there till probably twelve
thirty maybe one sometimes we do inventory. Then we were
(05:48):
there all night. And so it got to the point
where my mom's like, I don't want, I don't need
you in a store at midnight with cash, money, right,
and other valuable items when you're sixteen years old, tell
them that you can't close which I did, and they oblige.
They worked with me on that, but at the same time,
it wasn't for me to tell them. I mean, I
(06:10):
probably should have gotten fired for that because it's like, well,
then that means that of the you know, two other
managers there are that those two have to do all
of the closings because you can't. And I understood her point,
but at the same time, it was like, this is
not good for my ascension at blackwisterd viting the district
manager or whenever I was going to be at seventeen.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Yeah, I'm not crazy to be honest about the management
of said plays. And I only say that because if
they know their employee is in high school, like I'm
not saying it's the responsibility to kind of teeter totter
around them.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But based on their.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
Schedule, I would say, okay, maybe I'll schedule you to
this time, knowing you can do your side work and
lead by this time, or put you for weekends only,
because at the end of the day, I do believe
that that students should be in school. I think majority
of us will had like jobs in high school. I
get that, but now as a mom, I don't know
if I'm comfortable with my daughter working in high school
like that, I really don't.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I want her to focus on.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Being a teenager, a kid getting good grades and doing
what she got to do in her life, whatever that
might be.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
But Paula, are you guys say that in the beginning?
You can't. You can't take the job correct knowing what
the parameters are ahead of time. Now, if the manager
changed it, if it was like, well we agreed to
days and now you've got me on at night, well
then that's a conversation. But I also think that's a
conversation that the daughter needs to have and that mom
doesn't need to come in there and handle it. For
a lot of reasons. Hey, Mike, how you doing good?
(07:25):
How are you guys? Mike? Good morning? So this actually
happened to you?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
Yes, yes, my daughter sought worldly at high school at
can't play School. She got a job at a little restaurant.
I initially went with her, but I made her do
all the talk and what time the managers started having
her clothes a kind of clock more than one or
two times a week. I talked to my daughter, I said,
how do you feel about this? You gotta handle situice,
(07:51):
and I'm not gonna stop in I see the mom's point.
How was Therrid City? But you cannot get involved like that,
embarrass her daughter like that. You've got to learn how
to deal with these situations. Here was it the storekeky it?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Another restaurant, a fast food restaurant, very popular one.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was just kidding because it's your story.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
The Stort's only open on Wednesdays.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
Absolutely, absolutely, Yeah, So you gotta teach your kids to
handle these situations that are going to be rough. But
that's only gonna make them grow and learn you can, baby.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, I think you're doing a disservice. I mean, and
obviously when they're young, but seventeen eighteen year I mean,
you're considered an adult here in many many ways, so
you you would be doing them a disservice to not
let them handle it no matter what happens, because now
would be the time, by the way, to go in
there and say that and get fired. Honestly, if you're
seventeen years old, not that that's a good thing, like
you still live at home, whatever, Whenever you stand on
(08:53):
your ground and you're gonna get fired, like now's the time.
I suppose because you're your parents an you know, you
get a place of sleep hopefully whatever else. Thank you, Mike,
have a great day.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Hey, I'm number one, number one.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Ben.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
I'm telling you from day one.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
You guys, well, thank you. I'll let you and Nita
and I'll let you and Danida the undisputed listener number
one of thirteen. I'll let you guys fight it out, but.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Trust me, it's me. Have a great thing aday, Mike.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Guys, listen, if you're new to the show, we only
have thirteen listeners. We've only ever had thirteen listeners. They
keep putting us on different places. We still only have
thirteen listeners. But even listener number two, three, four, Aaron mccafy, Meal,
West Loop, Tom Missus, Genes C and aj even they
agree that Danide is listening number one. So the fact
that Mike is coming in here out of nowhere, I
(09:44):
like that. I just don't know. And then of course
we only have two listeners or three, we think, but
two in Salt Lake City, Jerem and when Bendy, so
we we actually know them personally. That's where we're at,
you know, this is the states that we're at now.
So Today's our first today West Palm Beach. If you listening,
then go ahead and give us a text, and then
you can be the first and only person listening. If
(10:05):
you text us, there's a good chance so there are
zero people letter week.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
I was told that we are on the air in Florida.
I was told that doesn't mean that anyone has us
on the air. Then I got it. So, Hi, Natalie,
how you doing? Natalie? Uh No, sorry, Rosalie. I'd rather
go to Rosalia first. Natalie can wait, Natalie, be patient, Rosalie,
you go first. Hi Rosalia, Rosalia?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
But yeah, Hi, how are you see?
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Now?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
There's the time when I tried to get fancy with
him again and what Rosali? And and I just said
it wrong. Anyway, Rosalia, they got to put stuff in
fanatics for me on this thing, so I don't screw
it up. What did you want to say? Kiki's cord.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Agreed with Kiki one. I can't embarage your kids like that.
I have been working since I was fifteen. I have
been in a situation on the.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
Other end of that.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
If my were my parents were definitely upsett working late
and affecting my But if my parents came to my
job and did that, I definitely would not be motivated
to get a different job at that age. But my
advice to the mom and co new mom of two now,
especially girls, is open. Just have her If it was
(11:18):
bothering her daughter working late, affecting her grades, she should
have an open communication with her daughter saying, hey, listen,
I know you're working very late. Clean talk to me
if something's going on there. Let's have that open end communications.
So if something is occurring that is inappropriate or whatever
the case may be, she would be comfortable enough to
go to her mom and you know, resolved. That's when
(11:42):
I would step in and go to the manager, and
you know, all hell would break loose, should you soone
something else going on? You know that is just outside
of working her responsibilities.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Well, I doubt by the way, if the boss wasn't
agreeable to the employee, you know, expressing her concern, then
mom coming in over the top probably wasn't going to
change his mind. If anything, it's just like, oh great,
now I get to deal with two of them. Never mind,
I'll find somebody else, right exactly, Yeah, thank you, Cindy.
Excuse me, Rosalia, I have a good day. I'm like
(12:15):
very distracted today. I got so many people calling. Yeah,
a lot of people call Rosalie, Cindy, but let's Natalie Now,
Hi Natalie. I don't know. It's just a lot of
blinking things in my face and I'm very I don't know. Hi, Hi,
What did you want to say? Kikey's Court, by the way,
in synopsis, Keiki Yes, this woman ma'amout out the maam
(12:36):
is concerned her daughter was working at a fast food
restaurant but working really late, and she wasn't comfortable with that.
So she eventually went in and spoke to the manager
on behalf of her daughter, and that did not go well.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Yeah, she got our daughter fired from my first.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Job because she didn't want her daughter in a fast
food restaurant till eleven and twelve o'clock at night. What
do you think?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
So when I was seventeen, I started a job because
I wanted to be as independent as possible, and my
parents were fully on support of that, and they were
always said that they're going to be in the background
if they always if I ever needed them, But I
was going to resolve my own problems. By the time
I was eighteen, I had three jobs. One was an
externship that I didn't get paid for, and I was
(13:16):
in two restaurant jobs, and I had college. So me
starting off being independent on my own actually gave me
a boost up. And when I started doing things completely
on my own, And if I didn't have that, I
probably would be very set back by the time I
was nineteen twenty and actually doing my own stuff. But
(13:40):
I mean, I can see if it was like a
fifteen sixteen year old and parents, you know me, to
have like that waiver signed and everything. Sure, but if
they're trying to maybe their kids forever, they're never going
to grow up.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, I think you're right. Thank you, Natalie, have a
great day diet to thank you. No, I think that's true.
I mean, at the same time, No, it's like, if
you don't want your kid out till midnight, then don't
want them apply for a job at a place that
to open until midnight, right, I mean, or just again
specify from the beginning. Hey, look, you can take the job,
but let him know I don't want my seventeen year
old out until when, at whatever time, And Crystal, you
(14:15):
make it. We make a good point. Crystal, good morning, Hey,
good morning guys. Hi, what did you want to say?
Good morning?
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Hey kiking?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
What's that girl?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Oh no, you're on there.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
Let the record reflect.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Oh okay, you know, and actually get out here with
your disrespect, you.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Know, because no, no, no, no no, the mother had spunken.
The mother said, not after nine pm. Okay, I don't
care about en. I don't care about eleven. The mother said,
nine pm is nine pm, my home, my rules. I
don't care about anything else. Nine pm is nine pm.
So when I said you get off work at nine pm,
(14:56):
that's it, that's all. The daughter did not listen to
my rules. No more jobs, whether the manager fires you
or I fired you, and listen to my house, my rules,
and my house.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Now I feel you on that point. I think the
issue is she could have had that conversation with her
daughter instead of going directly to the daughter's manager, because
now you put your daughter in an awkward situation that
she didn't need to be in. You could have just said, hey,
this is it, quit the job, you know, But now
you've gotten her fired and she's like, now she doesn't
even want to speak to her mom anymore.
Speaker 7 (15:28):
That's okay. You should have listened to me in the
first place, that predicament when you didn't get off at
nine o'clock.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Crystal, so this none of this would have happened if
she had just followed directions to begin with.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Correct, you embarrassed both of us. Now your manager had
to listen.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
To me, Merys, how old are your kids? Listen?
Speaker 7 (15:50):
They about twelve thirteen?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Oh boy, all right, they're trying to get jobs at
the first food restaurant. I hope you can pick them
up at midnight.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Right.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
I'll be up there too if this happens enough.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Thank you, Crystal, have a great day.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Love you.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Honestly say, I think it was Crystal's court, to be
honest with you around, I don't. I don't think it
was Crystal. I don't think it was Kigy's court at all.
I need to clock out. Entertainmer reports that
