Speaker 3 (02:23):
See?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
This goes.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
This is too much in line with compensation because you

It's hard because I'm judging off of this building.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Oh, this is actually a great wait company or building.

Oh okay, not me, because there's nothing wrong here.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, parking, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Like people, when you think of all the problems in
this building, the parking comes to mind.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Well, like across the way, it's the first two hours
are free in here, thirty minutes are free.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Well, first of all, even that's not true. The first
thirty minutes are not free. But the but you don't
pay for parking here? I know, yeah, so what are
you worried about?
Speaker 6 (03:39):
But it's like I'm thinking in general of other companies.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Oh no, I don't think parking is on here. That's
a ridiculous answer.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
But if you want to go off of this building,
then we can.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Okay. But you said you were going to Diane, go.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Like benefit packages.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
The oh oh insurance?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Hold on, hold on, I got a the if you
had any idea how light.
Speaker 1 (04:02):

dissatisfaction with benefits? Nailed it, Diane, number five, Tyler, this

Right back to Kristen. Yeah, go ahead, Kristen. Last one.
Speaker 4 (04:34):

Speaker 1 (04:46):
It open floor plan. Yeah, right, Oh that's what you're
going with. Okay, let's just move on.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
No, I thought you meant, by the way, I'll get
back to this in a second. I was just reading
about this one all office where the everybody gets along
for the most part.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They like not like here, but like where.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
It's like everybody's generally pretty close and everybody's good and
everybody's fine. But there's a new hire that fits in
for the most part, but has one really annoying habit
that is driving the rest of the office nuts.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What's the habit?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Nuts?
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Do you want me to tell you or do you
want me to mimic it? We have to guess this
the no, no, no, I can tell you or I
can mimic what their thing is, but.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
The mimicking will be well, no, exactly what the person does.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Oh yes, oh yes, miss you want me to mimic
getting into character? You like you sat up in your chair.
Is this it's a Shakespearean so Tyler asked Diane. We're
gonna we're doing a play, all right, ask Diane. We're
all we're all at workers together. I'm gonna be the
(05:56):
new hire that has a quirk that's rubbing everybody the
wrong way. Tyler is going to ask Diane if if,
if she's okay, and Diane is going to say, please
try to remember this.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Diana is going to say, I'm having a.
Speaker 4 (06:13):

Speaker 7 (06:27):
Oh god, I thought, I thought, honestly, can we I

Asian accent? Pardon me?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
What is that?
Speaker 1 (06:46):

Speaker 4 (07:45):
No, that's my baby talk. Sorry, my baby talk has
a hint of Asian.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
But that's why everybody hates that person in the office.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
They don't hate the person, but that is they said,
it is just so goddamn annoying.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
It is, okay, but that's that's how they are.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Our voices on your original list, say again, our voices,
but it quirks of coworkers.
Speaker 6 (08:08):
Okay, yeah, what about this one?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Yeah, go ahead, what is that annoying clapping it up
the Oh yeah, that bothers you from some Okay, so

Oh god, yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Saw my clapping bothers you clapping that you.
Speaker 1 (08:42):

Speaker 8 (08:50):
I don't sound Asian.
Speaker 2 (08:53):

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Well, if Aaron's listening, Oh, I'm shurey, I.
Speaker 9 (09:55):
Didn't do the training shawy And you said this a
new hire the yes, Oh my god, so you just
really want to nickname the how do you?
Speaker 4 (10:10):
But honestly, what do you You got to say something
to that person, right, well.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Their boss, their boss has to say something. You can't if.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
You're if you're a manager, what are you gonna say?
No baby talk in the office. Yes, no, you can't
say that.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
That's actually a great phrase or sentence that can be
used word for word to tell the person to stop.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
No. No, no, no, no no. But because you can.
Speaker 9 (10:32):
Get in trouble for this, dude, you think somebody's gonna
march over to HR and be like, well he's telling
me I can't do my baby talk.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, Like if you went over you see Diane is
doing it better? Were you this person? At some point,
That's what Alice would say. I went into Aaron's upset
that I'm doing baby talk. I'm oh, I'm shaw we.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
No, I don't think you can. If you're a manager,
you can't tell them no baby talk? Yes you can, No,
you can't. Wouldn't they say that's some kind of like harassment,
a fool behind my back where I don't know what's
going on.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, oh my god, Like I had to talk to.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Dustin during the commercial, but I'm sure the second I
shut the door they all were like, oh, well, it's
piece garbage, garbage? Okay, No, well no, because that'd be like, shure,
we do I made a request? Yeah, but I don't
baby talk. Oh god, that would drive me nuts. Could
you imagine Who's Who's who's our newest hire?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oh, who's the new sales guy?
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What's his name?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
The new sales guy, the new the new Danny Krapney.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
I think he's a sales guy, yeah, the new He
actually came from Richmond.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Why can't I think of his first name?
Speaker 3 (12:02):
What?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Brett? Yeah? What did Brett? Wanted to do? My show?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oi?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I bwet we have big plans for the fourth quarter. Okay,
that was.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Like a baby stinky fingers.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
No, it's just Diana is Diane's baby is so regional,
so was Elliott.
Speaker 9 (12:24):
But without the baby talk, it was just a region
like Asia.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Yes, stop bringing it up. Hi am weet God honestly.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Now, if Aaron could go to him since he's a manager, yes,
but as a regular employee, he can't say anything.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Al Toyto says, statistically, most babies are Asian, so it's
after it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
No. No, but you I don't think you can correct that.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
I do believe you can for baby talk, not for
not for if you were doing and I'm not but
if you were doing no.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
No, but if you were doing.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Like somebody was, like mocking a language, then you could
go in and go, hey, it's not that crap all racism.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
It's not racist. But there's just no.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Because if someone laughs, it's funny, totally different.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
No.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
No, But if somebody's thing was they had baby talk,
it's annoying. But you can't make them stop. I really
don't think you can. No, I'm being serious, I'm being.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Bully sensitive of the people on this show.
Speaker 10 (13:44):
Yes, and you have a baby name for that. Oh,
I'm sorry you were a puffy.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
You can say something, just no baby talk. Yes, I
don't think you could say that. Ask Eric protections? Does
that fall on civil liberties?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
My god?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Free speak?
Speaker 7 (14:17):
And again, this is not someone because maybe there's more
to your story. Is it someone who has like a
lisp or a speech impediment and it comes off as
baby talk?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
No, no, no, no, not at all. So they've heard
the person speak voice.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Oh, ninety nine percent of the time it's without the voice.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
But once or twice during the day somebody will go like, oh,
damn it, I lost my keys. Oh no, I'm sure
me you wash your keys? Wow, And then the rest
of the day they'll be fine. It would make the gossip.
But the people in the office are like, you don't
know when you're gonna get the baby bomb. So they're
(14:57):
a little now, they're starting to be a little push
like stand dollfish with them.
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Yeah, Aaron says not not Aaron from down the hall.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
No, Aaron M Barlow.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Where we learned the M stands for mouth hugs.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Elliott sounds like Adam Sandler auditioning to be an older
Asian lady.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Thank you, I gotta be honest, and I apologize if
it is.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I don't hear Asian at all. Well, don't see color.
That is one hundred percent trill. Where am I going?
Kristen Line four? Hi Ellie in the morning?
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Hey this man? Yeah? Hi?
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Hey is Adam?
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yes, Adam?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Hey? Yeah. You can tell them to stop doing baby
talk because it comes off as a condescending So therefore
you can conduct it as a hostile work environment.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Yeah, no, it is. I do like that. But how
is it undescending.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Because you're talking to them.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
You're talking down to them, I'm sure.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Oh so it's condescending and it's a hostile work environment.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
That's good. But you agree you can't just come out
and tell them knock it off.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Oh yeah again, Yeah, you can say that people around
the office things that you're being condescending.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
No, no, no, but you you if you use the
condescending term. But if I was the manager, I couldn't
just walk up to me and go, hey, cut it
with the baby talk.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Oh yeah, absolutely, game, I don't think you can.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
It did in all your scenario think I don't think
you can. You did sort of you were using that
voice to be the voice of the person you were
talking to. What do you mean, So if the person
was struggling with something or couldn't find something or whatever, right,
you were then applying that voice to them. You never
were speaking as yourself. No, I said I'm sorry, sorry,
(17:00):
I'm sorry that you can't I'm sorry that you can't.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Print out your your your power point.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
You you weren't watching you can't put out your power point.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
We weren't mocking the person.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Say yeah, you weren't mocking them by apologizing to them.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Elliott's if the person, if the person.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
If something bad happened, I was like, oh my god,
I'm sorry that happened.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
That's not mocking.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
Well, like yesterday when I walked in when we were leaving,
you said something about the toner.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yeah, I was out of toner.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
So if I would have noticed that, if I said, oh,
it looks like the printer's out of toner.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Oh, I'm showing you to Jo that's me. That's not
an apology.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Yes, that's what that that's what you say. That's what
you say. Yeah, I need to watch my ton you
need to watch your tone.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah. Oh man, you're good, you're good. You're a boss.
Like a boss.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
We need that shack printer to.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
No.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
No, but that's not thank you, sir, But it's not you.
That's me telling you I'm sorry that something happened to you.
But you're being inconvenience. No, you're making fun of me.
How am I making fun of you? How does that
make anything? You can't print?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Now you're teasing me. That would be making fun. But
if the printer's out to be like I'm trying, No,
but you're you're you're treating it like a mirror, as
if I'm being babyish because I either can't print or
can't figure out how to.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
My god, you're so sensitive. That's it. I'm telling LUs
that it was Chinese, Oh my god, trying to just
trying to show a little sympathy for you. Did you
say what kind of industry it was? Say again, did
you say what kind of business was their company?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Like this wasn't in front of clients, was it? No? No, No,
just in the office, just in the office.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Can you imagine someone gets in a new new account
here and they meet with the business and they're our baby,
talking lots of billable hours.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
And then it duck like that all day.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Now, oh, please don't, please, don't.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
It is annoying by the way you agree Diane's were
looney tones, then she is baby, But Diane's is also
more like it, Like Diane gives me a piss shiver
with it.
Speaker 7 (19:27):
That's better than a heart attack. Yeah, which is what
I got when you did yours.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I'm sorry about your hat jab, I said. I don't
know why I do it only.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
When i'm apologizing because you're mine. You're suggesting that I'm
being a baby about the situation, and that's wrong. That's wrong.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
What what? Where's Where's another way I could do it?
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I feel like I only insert that when when when
something has gone bad.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
How about you you come up on a nice spread
from a restaurant and it's being catered.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Away wat food, But it doesn't make sense that No,
I'm shaw. We you don't eat butter, butter.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
I'm just gonna take this in my desk.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Oh, I'm sorry, you won't be eating with us.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
We better.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
We're not ahead, but we better quit. Let's quit while
we're not that far behind. Oh, I'm sure you're unemployed?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Hi Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
All right?
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Well, and now you're gasping me to baby talk and
Asian accent.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Wait what go ahead.
Speaker 5 (20:47):
But you did prove your point that that it was
it is mocking the person, right, It's you said of
the time they would talk normal and then they talk, uh,
you know, with the baby action whenever they're saying a mistake.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
That's not like ha ha, you broke your leg. That's mocking.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
Yeah, this is this is apologizing, This is being this
is being empathetic.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
I'm I'm team Tyler.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
I'm showing your team Tyro.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Apologizing you picked the wrong team. All right, very good,
very good, Thank you. Low Morale also made the list.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I wonder why.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Unrealistic expectations from clients and customers.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
They always want me talking like a grown ass man.
Lack of transparency from leadership.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
That's a bad one here, not maybe not so much
in this building, but from this company. That's a bad one.
Lack of connection within the workplace. I don't even know
what that means.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
So obviously there's a professional relationship, but there also can
be social and that's done by the taco truck coming
or a happy hour or something like that. Oh okay,
all right.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Failing to evolve as workplaces in adopt new ideas and systems.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yeah, kind of stuck in the past.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, I don't know that this.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
I wouldn't accuse iHeart of that. Poor values and culture one.
I'm sorry. I hought culture.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Which culture? All right? Well, if this is it, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Do you understand the question?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Corporations are pissed?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
No?
Speaker 4 (00:18):
No, What are people pissed at their corporations for.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Wanting them to come back into the office?
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Would we call that work life balance or no? Yeah,
you're saying that.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Would we call that work life balance?
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Okay? Then you know what number three gone?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Tyler? Lack of accountability by who the company? Yeah? This
is not good if you're still looking for it? All right, Diane,

Speaker 5 (01:01):
Easy?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Gonna steal Christ? Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
You ready?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Turn yourself on? Turn yourself on?
Speaker 6 (01:09):
H Can I have the repeat of Tyler's All I
heard was lack of.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Wait what was your guess again? Lack of account around,
lack of accountability?
Speaker 6 (01:24):
Okay, lack of communication, lack.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Of communication, lack of communication? Hold on, well, seriously, Diane,
you're up what that should be on there?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Though?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Shouldn't it?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
But it's not. But it's not on my list. It's
not on my list, Diane, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Low pay.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Yes, dissatisfaction with salary number one, number one, killing.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
It, damn it because I got one, because now I'm
the third stres.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Oh was that your guests?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Come on, I have a whole list of them. Come on,
come on, come on.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
About what do people hate about their companies? What do
people hate about their company?
Speaker 3 (02:23):
See?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
This goes.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
This is too much in line with compensation because you
can be acknowledged. Some people feel it was overlooked. But
you could argue, well, no.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
No, no, no, no, no no no, you're good. You're good.
I'm good, you're good. Lack of appreciation number two, okay.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Number two. Now we're rolling. Boy, all right, Christian, Now
we're rolling.
Speaker 6 (02:52):
It's hard because I'm judging off of this building.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Oh, this is actually a great wait company or building.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Oh okay, not me, because there's nothing wrong here.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Am I still up?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
You didn't get an X Oh?
Speaker 6 (03:13):
Oh I got when I got one?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, parking, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Like people, when you think of all the problems in
this building, the parking comes to mind.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Well, like across the way, it's the first two hours
are free in here, thirty minutes are free.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Well, first of all, even that's not true. The first
thirty minutes are not free. But the but you don't
pay for parking here? I know, yeah, so what are
you worried about?
Speaker 6 (03:39):
But it's like I'm thinking in general of other companies.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Oh no, I don't think parking is on here. That's
a ridiculous answer.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
But if you want to go off of this building,
then we can.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Okay. But you said you were going to Diane, go.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Like benefit packages.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
The oh oh insurance?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Hold on, hold on, I got a the if you
had any idea how light.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
The print was here? Pay time, no support here? You
dissatisfaction with benefits? Nailed it, Diane, number five, Tyler, this
is something we've talked about it for too many meetings.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
The no.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Right back to Kristen. Yeah, go ahead, Kristen. Last one.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
People air conditioning people Just do you just mean co workers?
Speaker 6 (04:41):
Well I was gonna say, you know, how like now
they're in there's no offices because.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
It open floor plan. Yeah, right, Oh that's what you're
going with. Okay, let's just move on.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
No, I thought you meant, by the way, I'll get
back to this in a second. I was just reading
about this one all office where the everybody gets along
for the most part.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They like not like here, but like where.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
It's like everybody's generally pretty close and everybody's good and
everybody's fine. But there's a new hire that fits in
for the most part, but has one really annoying habit
that is driving the rest of the office nuts.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What's the habit?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Nuts?
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Do you want me to tell you or do you
want me to mimic it? We have to guess this
the no, no, no, I can tell you or I
can mimic what their thing is, but.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
The mimicking will be well, no, exactly what the person does.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Oh yes, oh yes, miss you want me to mimic
getting into character? You like you sat up in your chair.
Is this it's a Shakespearean so Tyler asked Diane. We're
gonna we're doing a play, all right, ask Diane. We're
all we're all at workers together. I'm gonna be the
(05:56):
new hire that has a quirk that's rubbing everybody the
wrong way. Tyler is going to ask Diane if if,
if she's okay, and Diane is going to say, please
try to remember this.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Diana is going to say, I'm having a.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Rough day, Okay, okay, all right and action Diana, are
you okay?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
I don't know. I'm just having a rough day.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Oh, I saw you have a rough day?
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Baby talk?
Speaker 7 (06:27):
Oh god, I thought, I thought, honestly, can we I
thought he was doing that.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I thought it was also an Asian accent. No, why
would I hear that? Baby would I be doing an
Asian accent? Pardon me?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
What is that?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Sorry? Pardon me?
Speaker 7 (06:48):
What does that have to do with anything? Was horrible?
I froze. Thank god I didn't have another line.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I saw you have a ugh day.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
How did you get baby talk out of that?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
You get Asian? Oh, I'm so you have a rough day.
That's baby talk.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
That's what I did a New York Asian. That's an
Asian American is four hour? No, that's john Tonnet.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Oh my god, I.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Got that as baby to thank you?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
What forum did you get this on? Jesus Christ? Oh,
I'm sawry you have a rough day? Can you give
another line? The well, that's the example they went with. Yeah,
I can't. Oh, I'm sawry. You not enjoy your day? God, baby,
(07:44):
don't do anymore.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
No, that's my baby talk. Sorry, my baby talk has
a hint of Asian.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
But that's why everybody hates that person in the office.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
They don't hate the person, but that is they said,
it is just so goddamn annoying.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
It is, okay, but that's that's how they are.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Our voices on your original list, say again, our voices,
but it quirks of coworkers.
Speaker 6 (08:08):
Okay, yeah, what about this one?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Yeah, go ahead, what is that annoying clapping it up
the Oh yeah, that bothers you from some Okay, so
that falls under coworker quirk.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Oh god, yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Saw my clapping bothers you clapping that you.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
By the way, that's the same thing she did because she.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Was afraid to say, as she put her hands together,
oh my god.
Speaker 8 (08:50):
I don't sound Asian.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
You a baby. That's better.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That is better, Thank you.
Speaker 7 (09:01):
This is the babysayer, just Confucius Kristen and I heard
it the way that I'm sure a lot of people
no way heard it.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
No, they heard baby talk.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
They even they they'll be like, oh, that's an uncomfortable baby.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Oh other guesses are coming through. Oh yes, go ahead.
Speaker 7 (09:19):
Not for the origin of your impression, oh yeah, lack
of upward.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Movement, lack of advancement opportunities number four.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
That's a big one. That's a big one. Too much training,
too much training?
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yes, ooh no, no really, how can you have too
much training?
Speaker 3 (09:44):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
The stuff that we have to do every year, Yes.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
We have. I think we have one due this week,
by the way, for what I don't I just remember
something to do on the twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Well, if Aaron's listening, Oh, I'm shurey, I.
Speaker 9 (09:55):
Didn't do the training shawy And you said this a
new hire the yes, Oh my god, so you just
really want to nickname the how do you?
Speaker 4 (10:10):
But honestly, what do you You got to say something
to that person, right, well.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Their boss, their boss has to say something. You can't if.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
You're if you're a manager, what are you gonna say?
No baby talk in the office. Yes, no, you can't
say that.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
That's actually a great phrase or sentence that can be
used word for word to tell the person to stop.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
No. No, no, no, no no. But because you can.
Speaker 9 (10:32):
Get in trouble for this, dude, you think somebody's gonna
march over to HR and be like, well he's telling
me I can't do my baby talk.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, Like if you went over you see Diane is
doing it better? Were you this person? At some point,
That's what Alice would say. I went into Aaron's upset
that I'm doing baby talk. I'm oh, I'm shaw we.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
No, I don't think you can. If you're a manager,
you can't tell them no baby talk? Yes you can, No,
you can't. Wouldn't they say that's some kind of like harassment,
a fool behind my back where I don't know what's
going on.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, oh my god, Like I had to talk to.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Dustin during the commercial, but I'm sure the second I
shut the door they all were like, oh, well, it's
piece garbage, garbage? Okay, No, well no, because that'd be like, shure,
we do I made a request? Yeah, but I don't
baby talk. Oh god, that would drive me nuts. Could
you imagine Who's Who's who's our newest hire?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oh, who's the new sales guy?
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What's his name?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
The new sales guy, the new the new Danny Krapney.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
I think he's a sales guy, yeah, the new He
actually came from Richmond.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Why can't I think of his first name?
Speaker 3 (12:02):
What?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Brett? Yeah? What did Brett? Wanted to do? My show?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oi?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I bwet we have big plans for the fourth quarter. Okay,
that was.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Like a baby stinky fingers.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
No, it's just Diana is Diane's baby is so regional,
so was Elliott.
Speaker 9 (12:24):
But without the baby talk, it was just a region
like Asia.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Yes, stop bringing it up. Hi am weet God honestly.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Now, if Aaron could go to him since he's a manager, yes,
but as a regular employee, he can't say anything.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Al Toyto says, statistically, most babies are Asian, so it's
after it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
No. No, but you I don't think you can correct that.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
I do believe you can for baby talk, not for
not for if you were doing and I'm not but
if you were doing no.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
No, but if you were doing.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Like somebody was, like mocking a language, then you could
go in and go, hey, it's not that crap all racism.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
It's not racist. But there's just no.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Because if someone laughs, it's funny, totally different.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
No.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
No, But if somebody's thing was they had baby talk,
it's annoying. But you can't make them stop. I really
don't think you can. No, I'm being serious, I'm being.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Bully sensitive of the people on this show.
Speaker 10 (13:44):
Yes, and you have a baby name for that. Oh,
I'm sorry you were a puffy.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
You can say something, just no baby talk. Yes, I
don't think you could say that. Ask Eric protections? Does
that fall on civil liberties?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
My god?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Free speak?
Speaker 7 (14:17):
And again, this is not someone because maybe there's more
to your story. Is it someone who has like a
lisp or a speech impediment and it comes off as
baby talk?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
No, no, no, no, not at all. So they've heard
the person speak voice.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Oh, ninety nine percent of the time it's without the voice.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
But once or twice during the day somebody will go like, oh,
damn it, I lost my keys. Oh no, I'm sure
me you wash your keys? Wow, And then the rest
of the day they'll be fine. It would make the gossip.
But the people in the office are like, you don't
know when you're gonna get the baby bomb. So they're
(14:57):
a little now, they're starting to be a little push
like stand dollfish with them.
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Yeah, Aaron says not not Aaron from down the hall.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
No, Aaron M Barlow.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Where we learned the M stands for mouth hugs.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Elliott sounds like Adam Sandler auditioning to be an older
Asian lady.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Thank you, I gotta be honest, and I apologize if
it is.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I don't hear Asian at all. Well, don't see color.
That is one hundred percent trill. Where am I going?
Kristen Line four? Hi Ellie in the morning?
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Hey this man? Yeah? Hi?
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Hey is Adam?
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yes, Adam?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Hey? Yeah. You can tell them to stop doing baby
talk because it comes off as a condescending So therefore
you can conduct it as a hostile work environment.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Yeah, no, it is. I do like that. But how
is it undescending.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Because you're talking to them.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
You're talking down to them, I'm sure.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Oh so it's condescending and it's a hostile work environment.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
That's good. But you agree you can't just come out
and tell them knock it off.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Oh yeah again, Yeah, you can say that people around
the office things that you're being condescending.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
No, no, no, but you you if you use the
condescending term. But if I was the manager, I couldn't
just walk up to me and go, hey, cut it
with the baby talk.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Oh yeah, absolutely, game, I don't think you can.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
It did in all your scenario think I don't think
you can. You did sort of you were using that
voice to be the voice of the person you were
talking to. What do you mean, So if the person
was struggling with something or couldn't find something or whatever, right,
you were then applying that voice to them. You never
were speaking as yourself. No, I said I'm sorry, sorry,
(17:00):
I'm sorry that you can't I'm sorry that you can't.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Print out your your your power point.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
You you weren't watching you can't put out your power point.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
We weren't mocking the person.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Say yeah, you weren't mocking them by apologizing to them.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Elliott's if the person, if the person.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
If something bad happened, I was like, oh my god,
I'm sorry that happened.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
That's not mocking.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
Well, like yesterday when I walked in when we were leaving,
you said something about the toner.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yeah, I was out of toner.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
So if I would have noticed that, if I said, oh,
it looks like the printer's out of toner.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Oh, I'm showing you to Jo that's me. That's not
an apology.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Yes, that's what that that's what you say. That's what
you say. Yeah, I need to watch my ton you
need to watch your tone.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah. Oh man, you're good, you're good. You're a boss.
Like a boss.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
We need that shack printer to.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
No.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
No, but that's not thank you, sir, But it's not you.
That's me telling you I'm sorry that something happened to you.
But you're being inconvenience. No, you're making fun of me.
How am I making fun of you? How does that
make anything? You can't print?
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Now you're teasing me. That would be making fun. But
if the printer's out to be like I'm trying, No,
but you're you're you're treating it like a mirror, as
if I'm being babyish because I either can't print or
can't figure out how to.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
My god, you're so sensitive. That's it. I'm telling LUs
that it was Chinese, Oh my god, trying to just
trying to show a little sympathy for you. Did you
say what kind of industry it was? Say again, did
you say what kind of business was their company?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Like this wasn't in front of clients, was it? No? No, No,
just in the office, just in the office.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Can you imagine someone gets in a new new account
here and they meet with the business and they're our baby,
talking lots of billable hours.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
And then it duck like that all day.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Now, oh, please don't, please, don't.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
It is annoying by the way you agree Diane's were
looney tones, then she is baby, But Diane's is also
more like it, Like Diane gives me a piss shiver
with it.
Speaker 7 (19:27):
That's better than a heart attack. Yeah, which is what
I got when you did yours.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I'm sorry about your hat jab, I said. I don't
know why I do it only.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
When i'm apologizing because you're mine. You're suggesting that I'm
being a baby about the situation, and that's wrong. That's wrong.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
What what? Where's Where's another way I could do it?
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I feel like I only insert that when when when
something has gone bad.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
How about you you come up on a nice spread
from a restaurant and it's being catered.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Away wat food, But it doesn't make sense that No,
I'm shaw. We you don't eat butter, butter.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
I'm just gonna take this in my desk.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Oh, I'm sorry, you won't be eating with us.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
We better.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
We're not ahead, but we better quit. Let's quit while
we're not that far behind. Oh, I'm sure you're unemployed?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Hi Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
All right?
Speaker 5 (20:36):
Well, and now you're gasping me to baby talk and
Asian accent.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Wait what go ahead.
Speaker 5 (20:47):
But you did prove your point that that it was
it is mocking the person, right, It's you said of
the time they would talk normal and then they talk, uh,
you know, with the baby action whenever they're saying a mistake.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
That's not like ha ha, you broke your leg. That's mocking.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
Yeah, this is this is apologizing, This is being this
is being empathetic.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
I'm I'm team Tyler.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
I'm showing your team Tyro.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Apologizing you picked the wrong team. All right, very good,
very good, Thank you. Low Morale also made the list.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I wonder why.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Unrealistic expectations from clients and customers.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
They always want me talking like a grown ass man.
Lack of transparency from leadership.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
That's a bad one here, not maybe not so much
in this building, but from this company. That's a bad one.
Lack of connection within the workplace. I don't even know
what that means.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
So obviously there's a professional relationship, but there also can
be social and that's done by the taco truck coming
or a happy hour or something like that. Oh okay,
all right.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Failing to evolve as workplaces in adopt new ideas and systems.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yeah, kind of stuck in the past.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, I don't know that this.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
I wouldn't accuse iHeart of that. Poor values and culture one.
I'm sorry. I hought culture.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Which culture? All right? Well, if this is it, I'm sorry.
This is how it hashty ends
