Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the Zenian podcast Network. This is for the Police
Big Pod, brought to you by Chemist.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Warehouse, the biggest brands at the lowest prices I have.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
I've actually sent this quite a bit on Instagram, where
TikTok becomes rather refined.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
Instagram reels.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Instagram reels where people are showing how they are using chat,
GPT or AI during job interviews. And they'll be zoom
job interviews and they have their little zoom there and
then they'll have their phone like tucked to the side
with chat GPT open, and then they'll be using chat
GPT live to answer the questions they're being asked in

(00:42):
interviews okay, and employeers are saying, we know you're doing this,
and sometimes it's so bad if they don't have the
their phone there. They'll see people going, so, hailey, what
you know, what makes you passionate about this job?

Speaker 4 (00:57):
Thank you? Click clickicklick click, tell me what makes me
passionate about well? I mean they're not using they're not
using AI, right. I would have mine on the microphone
seeing this is what I've seen people do. I would say,
we're about to be asked some questions. You listen and
reply and this.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Is what people do and then the employer is what
I've seen on Instagram where a TikTok becomes refined is
people in the people who are doing the interview and
will go share with me your screen immediately and they
go yep, one hold on one moment and they.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Have to screenshore to show that they don't have a
che or just from the start of the interview, they're
they're sharing them so that they can't do it.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yeah, because now, like with Zoom, like many job interviews
are remote, even if you lived in the same city,
it's just easier, right that they can just run through
a bunch of interviews without people having to come in.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
How high should we roll?

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Play?

Speaker 4 (01:47):
You've got it open? But would open on my phone?
I was going to use the voice. Okay, here's the voice.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
What job should he be applying for? Butcher's Apprentice?

Speaker 4 (01:57):
A Butcher's Apprentice? I got to I've got to set
che gpt out before we okay start, Hey, Alan, it's
born here. I'm about to go into a pretend job
interview where someone is going to be asking me questions.
You listen. I will leave the microphone on. You listen
and feed me some good answers for the job I'm

(02:19):
applying for, which is at a butchery, being a butcher. Okay,
let's just transcribe me now into PT. Weird that you
call that you've named you all. This is weird that
you've well, it's a I, but the eye looks like
an owl, so it's okay, formal Okay, I'm wingman here

(02:40):
since I can't actually listen live, so he can't listen
and listen and still have are you paying for a
jade level subscription? He'll read it out to me, okay, okay,
so you still have to type see how are people
getting away? Don't know? Okay, okay, So if.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
You want to type it in and then I want
to see you phil as well while you tie, I.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Want to see how quickly you can turn this around
and how you stall. Okay, Okay, Hayley, you've got the
first question.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Vaughan Ellen.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yes, Hi, Yes, good, I'm grant Hi, grant Hi.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Now, thank you for applying for this job at Sprow Butcheries. Yeah,
I just want to I just want to know how
do you work well under pressure?

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Well, pressure's always made diamonds, as as my grandfather used
to say yeah, and you know cole turns into diamonds.
I work best by staying calm and organized and a
busy butchery you've got customers waiting and lots going on.
I focus on one task at a time, keep my
station plan and communicate with the team so nothing slips.
Pressure motivates me to be efficient. Yeah, just you can

(03:42):
really saw the sweach. You saw the switch. We really
saw the switch. Therefore, okay, thank you ye for that answer.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I just want to know do you have experience making
sausages and what is your preferred method?

Speaker 4 (03:54):
Well, you know there's the old saying about they don't
like to see how the sausages made. He's going to
start everything. I will say, I haven't had formal sausage
you're making experience yet, but I understand the basics and
I'm really came to learn the proper techniques. I know
attention to season, inconsistency and hygiena kene key, and I'll
pick it up quickly with some training.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Can you describe the dinner and feel like I heard
the switch there, Vaughan. Can you describe the different primal
cuts and how you would break them down?

Speaker 4 (04:20):
Primal cuts some of My favorite cuts are the primal cuts.
I will say, however, I feel like again that was
a sledge. The primal cuts depend on the animal, but
for be if you're looking at chuck rib loin, round, brisket,
shank and flank. From there you break them into sub
primals and then retail cuts like taking the loin into
sirloin strip, tendlin stacks. I understand the structure and where

(04:43):
the main ca come from. I'd like to tak that
is because you just have a little stall. Yeah, thank
you for that question. Yeah, I mean, primal cuts are
a passion of mine.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
I mean I'd work on the performance sliding from personal
to AI to read it out.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
But they obviously can see this or a mile away.
It was. It was barely subtle. It's so quick though,
that's so fast? Do you want to hear Alan read
out the answer? Sure? Are you what voice? What voice?
Have you got?

Speaker 5 (05:13):
That one? Keep it clear but not to textbooky so
it sounds like you know the basics and are keen
to go deeper. So he knows that you don't option one.
General knowledge shows awareness. The main primal cuts depend on
the animal, but for beef, you're looking at the Chuck
rib loin round.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
I want to give Alan the job. I think we
give a voice voice. Yea, what kind of steak are you?
Look as his sixty voice. I went through and picked
what I just needed. A best friend. You do have
a job interview on Zoom. They know your AI are

(05:53):
googling your own babes like us have a little practice.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
That's something between your own voice and Aisy.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Ledgvawn and Hailey.

Speaker 6 (06:02):
Hailey, silly little pool, silly lit po.

Speaker 7 (06:07):
It is so silly, silly, silly dad, silly little pool, silly.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Pool, silly lit dupole, silly poll.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
Today's silly little pole, Today's little pole is what's your
ideal party? When I host my house or when someone
else hosts, I mine hosting, but you know everybody has
to leave my house early. If my host I always
kick people out. There needs to be a pre established
expected time of departure.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Yes, Like I threw a party on Saturday and four
am turned out to be the expected because.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
I think I left at about eleven thirty am eleven
thirty pm. And then do you guys keep going very
many hours? It's really felt like it was I got
a second win, got a second win, and did you
end up with like eight cars at your house old,
the next the last one got picked up last night.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Okay, but that's the host responsibility. Take their take their
keys of them. Well, seventy five percent of people said
it's when someone else hosts. In twenty five percent like
to be the host. Okay, oh really, Yeah, I don't
mind being the host. I like it.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
I like it because your bed's right there, you're already,
you're comfortable, you know the lay of the land.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
You can help yourself, start doing the dishes, kind of
passing around the trash bag.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, get done it.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
Some feedback on it, Denise said, somebody else. So I
can leave when I want. Yeah, fair cool, Steff, I got.
I've gotten to that age where I am the one hosting.
I tell them what time they need to leave by
I've not had one complaint and they love that. I'm
honest with them. Majority of time, it's close circle of
friends and they know what I'm like. Yeah, one d
per beautiful, Yeah that's good stuff. And then know uber

(07:51):
for you yeah yeah, and like take care of the
big stuff. But then in the morning, toddle around and
finish up the rest of cleaning us. What has Victoria said?
Somebody else, no stress, no cleaning, no mess, can arrive
and leave when I want clear, said, I don't drink.
Would Ray would wait? Rather help clean up and drive

(08:12):
home than have to clean up my own house so
that she's not a giant so she can. The key
is to get everybody to just get you get a
couple of big black sacks, and everyone cleans up, and
they drop the rubbershof and on the way out the door,
and you clean.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
You don't doing dishwasher loads at three am. But come
four o'clock when everyone left the house was tidy.

Speaker 4 (08:30):
Gorge Taylor said, I have a rooftop Auckland City apartment
with a giant balcony, so people like coming to mine.
I'd rather go to somebody else's though, so I don't
have to clean. When you think we're getting the invite
to Taylor's and a rooftop, yeah, with a big balcony.
Oh what are these people on? Hosting at your own

(08:51):
place is way better. You can drink more and responsible,
of course, and you get to choose what you eat,
and you can tell people to go home. Yes, you
may need to clean more, but being the host differently
outweighs all the negative ones aspects. Just nothing better than
sneaking off to bed when everyone's drunk and leaving them
to it in your own home. I can't leaving them
at somebody else's home so that the noise isn't also

(09:12):
in your house. Yeah, yeah, yeah, true, this fond is
nailed here, Neil, none either. I don't want to party
nine pm. I don't want to party. I don't like it.
I'm not partying, torn, says Lauren. If I host, I
don't have to find an uber home. But if someone
else hosts, I don't have to clean up. Yeah. Fair,

(09:35):
Caius is why is there no option for solo party
at home? I love a solo party. We should have
just put solar party in there, And Courtney said, I
host equals I can set the time, menu and guests.
No awkward small pork to talk with people I don't
know or like.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Also awkward small pork either keep the pork chunks nice
and nice.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Yeah. Also, no driving means we can keep the drinks
flowing on both happy and I can enjoy, not to
mention the leftovers for days. If there's a If there's
a food aspect to.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Your beef yesterday, Vaughn. I mean, I've been living off
of party leftovers for age. I love it.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
Also, not my best beef. Oh it was really it
was delicious. Yeah, but it was nice. But it wasn't
my best beef. Oh it was the talk of the party. Yeah,
I know that I need to do a bitter Okay,
I set myself a very high bar. What do you do?

Speaker 8 (10:17):
You do?

Speaker 4 (10:18):
You gotta do your beef right. Well, we asked you
for silly little part. What do you prefer when it
comes to a party hosting at your own house or
when someone else hosts? And seventy five percent of you
like when someone else hosts.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Play Zims, Fletchborn and Hailey.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
My supermarkets had an upgrade. Guys, tell us about it.
You know, I live in the ghetto. It actually didn't.
I didn't dawn on me until producer Shannon mention this.
But a lot of supermarkets around the country don't have
the trolley stops.

Speaker 6 (10:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (10:45):
When I went down to rural Southland, I couldn't believe.
I was like, this is so low security. There's no
man standing there, there's no trolley guards. You just get
to walk into the supermarket free.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
Game Mine and Vaughn's just had them removed and now
we lo and lowly openly.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
From them the annoying things that you leave now, doesn't it.
I was surprised to see them get rid of them
in this day.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
It's a new world and they and they've all kind
of done that. A nice indoor out or flow, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
Yeah, of course it's but where where they don't have
the taka takatakas. They normally have a big security guard,
don't they. Yes, yes, stop you security guard. There's the
sushi lady at the game. I think I think she
does have star. She's got those you know, they put
the swissauce and the little plastic first, but they're bigger
versions with ninja stars. Yes, yeah, she does your right road.

(11:45):
So my supermarkets had these for ages that took a
took to stop you pushing the trolley out backwards. Yes,
And now what they've done is not only have they upgraded,
they've put an extra row. So it feels like you
have to walk for about one hundred meters with the tokatoka,
which is you know, it's a bit degrading, isn't it.
So how how many taktok a double layer of tokatoka taka?

(12:08):
They had one or ours has got two? Now you
mean double so three? No, there's like four on each one,
isn't there? So there'd be like eight of them, eight
or so. So you go took a took a took
to get it six on each one. I think you're
rocking a twelve double height. Normally they're like, what is
that kind of thive mid thigh mid thigh, and so

(12:28):
you know you'd go through it and to go tokatoka taka.
Now they've got ones at chin height, so there's double
tokatoka taka. One's a little bit lower. But what they've
done is they've put a foam this thing. This is
what I wanted to talk about, Like, no, it's like
a it's like shrap. It's like maybe it's like a

(12:49):
tiny pool noodle, but it's covered in like a vinyl.
And so you go tokotok about the win those hip
thrust things and you put them around a bast year. Yeah,
and then so now it'll go took her on your
But it's not padded at the thigh height, but the
shin ones padded so are still taking a wa Yeah,

(13:13):
I'll do Okay. So the trolleys coming out, and but
it's not for the trolley. It's for your shen's, isn't it.
The trolley would be heading it. Yeah, I guess so.
But when you don't go in with a trolley, you
bear the brunch. You be the brunt of it. Yeah, exactly.
Guard you're going in basket. I do like going backwards

(13:33):
through them like sometimes why they've gone double. They've gone double.
If you forget a basket, you screwed my arms like
this and can you sort of swished them out?

Speaker 6 (13:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (13:44):
I saw someone jump over it to try thief, but
he it's quite a big and he dropped all his
goodies and it was really embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
If they've made it longer than the world long jump chemp,
so only one man in the world could do it.

Speaker 9 (14:03):
And if you could, they'd be like congrats, shoulder docker.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
That's how you say congratulations. Okay, the world record for
the men's long jump, it's eight point ninety five meters.
The supermarket has nearly gone and i'd say half the
way of the world long jump champing machine. You come
out with internal bleeding and just be whacked at the

(14:28):
same Either side of this is this sort of a
high display of specials yea, yeah, yeah, I'd probably just
plow through the specials if I was going to do
that then rather than try to jump the door like
I'm not here to, you know, hypothesize shoplifting Baard. You
know what I'm saying that what they need to do
is get some high then long as that is long,
they need a high jump champ. They need the high giant.

(14:49):
Maybe those festival fences, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 10 (14:52):
Do yours not have those like security things like the
yeah there little scanners yea, mine hairs those w hello,
they've got those on the exit on the exit.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
Well, I'm just saying now they've they've added some pham
pads to the talkers, so enjoy. No, it's broken again.
We can keep on yesterday and then what happened is
because I'd pressed the button five times up five times.

Speaker 9 (15:21):
Mine has also now broken talking what song was due
to play?

Speaker 4 (15:26):
I could just play it offl.

Speaker 2 (15:30):

using apricoture South Africa. You'd like that.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
I know that there are no apricots like the South
African apricots.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
They're just superior. You love to pork your corg glad
apric that's what. And asparagus from Peru asparagus? What does
it make out we stink less? Otherwise I'll have my

(17:27):
asparagus New Zealand grown. Thank you. Cousin Dean encourages your
New Zealanders to vote with their wallet bunches and New
Zealand made camp peaches. How will we know? Apparently it
will be labeled. Oh good, okay, I will go from
here now. Swear to you. How many peaches do we have?
We have millions of peaches ps for me, millions of

(17:49):
peaches peaches for free, Not really, millions of peaches have
of dollars.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Can quite a lot of millions of peaches.

Speaker 4 (17:58):
From over sea. The top sex signs. Your peaches are
Australian peaches. Yeah, number sex on the liss Their hats
have corks on them. Of course, I don't even know
peaches had hat. Peaches do have peaches have hats because
the sun's so high. Of course that makes complete sense.

Speaker 6 (18:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Number five on the least of the top six signs
Your peaches are Australian by driving a hold in commodore. Yeah, no,
peaches drive ye, well they do, yeah, because how do
you think they get to the factory from the orchard? Car?
Hold in common? What he's do with all the cars,
because obviously they take the peaches who are driven in

(18:39):
and then they put the peach in a can. They
just and then the per asparagus, pervian asparagus drove it
back to the orchard. Yeah. Number four on the list
of the top sex signs, Your peaches are Australian. They
just said something racist, but don't think it's racist. Yeah,
don't say that. Punch a right. Number three on the

(19:01):
list of the top sex signs of your peachers are Australian.
They're listening to Jimmy Barnes, of course, yeah, they're listening
to that in the Commodore. Well, they said something racist
than their hats have corks on them on the way
to the factory. That voice just keeps getting raspber rasber
Number two on the last of the top sex signs.
Your peaches are Australian. They're already making excuses for losing

(19:23):
in the bledders Low. Oh, you're completely ignoring the All
Blacks performance from the weekend. By the way, the only
thing that made the Warriors lost palatable was that the
All Blacks lost by more. Yeah yeah, but the girls
black Foond's unstoppable. How many losses are going to take
before everyone starts ignoring the All Blacks? And it's like

(19:45):
those black men hardly had to mention but continue to
romp it at the World Cup and number one on
the list of the top six signs. Your peaches are Australian.
They just got really drunken coins down and made assholes
of themselves. Yeah. Class. The Queenstown Police still do that
Facebook page where they put all the crimson Remember that
it was so good for so many years. Oh, I

(20:06):
don't know. Wow. That is today's stops.

Speaker 7 (20:08):
Play MS Fletch, Vaughn and Haley play Ms.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Fletch Onorn and Haley, I reckon, I'm in a spot
of trouble and Vaughan, I reckon.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
You might have noticed this as well.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
On our drive from out where we live, and I
live quite close to work.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
It's like there's not much there.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
It's just sort of bush and motorway and then a
couple of roundabouts and then we're on the motorway.

Speaker 4 (20:33):
It's somewhere it worked five in the morning. It's five
in the morning.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
Nothing like if you wanted to go and find temptation,
you'd have to go and find like a twenty four
hour McDonald's. But in the last have you noticed this porn?
In the last month, a new cafe has opened.

Speaker 4 (20:51):
Oh, yes, a bakery. The bakery I know. I have
been great easy right on the side of the like
just before we get on the motorway, right on the
side of the right, adequate parking. Yeah, every time we
go past. I had a little pig at the hotel.
We're going to open this hot cabinet, Say's pies talking

(21:11):
about five hours and no one's in there. You could
rock in and get a fresh one. You could go
and like and like, you know, when we are like
when we work these hours. Sometimes you work up in
the morning You're like, man, I'm just hungry. I'm I'm rapping.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
I don't want my pro to my musically or something.
But there's nothing we can do about it. You're just
gonna get to work.

Speaker 4 (21:31):
Nothing's open, yeah, because there's no temptation.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
No, no, no, there's no twenty four hour McDonald's on the
way to work or whatever. There is now a bakery,
and I'm like, this is dangerous. There have been multiple
times that have been driving pass us and been like,
there's a little and now I just looked in the air.
I saw hot cabinets, and this morning I was like,
there's pies. And then I was like, this is great
for the show, because you know, sometimes we have events

(21:55):
or concerts. Yes, we're the next day, the mahima has
to be done.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
We've got to turn up. But we feel a little
ear of dust and now it's broken a right, But
you haven't been and you haven't seen up close the
selection of like are there slices? Are there delicious bakery?
I mean there's a v fridge. And the genius part
about it is later in the day when the traffic
starts to build. Yeah, like people are just going to

(22:21):
be crawling past it. And don't tell me you wouldn't
be like, man, I'm hungry. It's gonna be another half
an hour work or longer. Pull, Yeah, get really smart
for good location from them, really good because it was
just there's just nothing else there, and it used to
be this little shop that's never really became much and
then was had like some watermelons outside. Right now, guys,

(22:42):
next hangover, next big night we have we arrive at work.
I'm bringing pies. Yeah, right. But also it cannot become
you know, once a week feeling. It can't become a thing. No,
especially when you're buying a pie and you're not hungover
or you're not going home, you're going to work at

(23:02):
five am. That's something different.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Like I might get on the daily pis, do you
know what I mean? And then that's aid.

Speaker 4 (23:09):
Because then you're following that up with a sweet treat, Yeah,
a loly cake while I'm there.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:13):
I think what I'm going to do.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Is maybe at some point this week, maybe I'll treat myself.
On Friday, I will pull in early morning, and I'll
test the goods of this.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Play because I yeah, I don't did tend myself. Shall
I bring us all in a pile justice? Once?

Speaker 1 (23:28):
No?

Speaker 4 (23:28):

through a breakup, whether you've initiated it or you've been

I was going to pray as as a northern Southern
Hemisphere thing.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
Well, this, the article in reading is a Northern Hemisphere thing,
because it's like you've come to the end of summer,
your summer flings kind of wind up and you're kind
of getting back into a routine. I guess of like
knuckling down for the winter. But I've also read another
article that's it's exact same thing. We've been through a
winter and now we're kind of like, I'm actually ready.

Speaker 4 (24:51):
To go out and explore and have fun. Be single
for summer. Yeah, it's just the be single for summer.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
It's the change of season thing that's sort of And
I feel this like at the end of each season
more at the end of winter and summer, a mindset
kind of a reset. You know, we're like, right, I
want to I'm going to get back into this or
I'm going to do this or change up this, And
relationships are a bit of a casualty of that.

The most popular month. Someone just messaged an eight year
relationship ended within this month.

very very good comedian. His stand up is top tier,

was like flawless.

Speaker 4 (27:33):
He had like I don't like that, okay, it was amazing.
So he ran a.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Donation clock he was going to do a one hundred
thousand dollars donation to the Boys and Girls Club, and
he had it on the board basically and if your
Emmy speech, which has kept forty five seconds, went over,
he had subtracted one thousand dollars from it.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
Every second, Yeah, every second, every second was one thousand
dollars on the studio came out on top. It bit
the beer with the amount of like Emmy's at one
that day. I mean, the Hollywood loves the story about itself,
don't they. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, But it was an incredible series.
The last couple of episodes of that show were just incredible.

(28:18):
We've talked about that so many times. Absolutely, Flower Ryan
Cranston's amazing and it's beautifully shot. It is. It's incredible.
That's on Apple TV if you haven't seen it.

Never Mind, it may my name on this, but it
really belongs to the people behind the camera and Steven

for yours. It's a cute vide. Netflix had posted it

(31:01):
on their social You should go look at it. It's
very cute.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
But I think it was a really good Emmy and
it just reflects like how good TV has been recently.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Also like it's a really good list of shows. If
you haven't seen the looking for a bunch of shows
to watch, just go through the whole nomination list. Also,
surprisingly White Lotus didn't get a single win, and everyone's like,
oh snub because they weren't like every year they do
win every year. But it was just an incredible year
of television. It was yeah, so yeah, like you're so right,

(31:31):
Go and look up the Emmy Award winners. Less were
there any shows on there that you hadn't seen or
heard of that won something that peached your interest? No,
I have felt quite vindicated by myn Television choices are
my favorite palette. All my favorite shows won, like all
the awards basically.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Hex Hex one, Hannah one for Supporting Actress, and Comedy
Series which.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
You've loved, Jean's Smart one as well. And they've said
that the next season that they're filming at the moment,
I think it's even out soon, maybe on and maybe
not maybe filming at the moment. That'll be the last.
Oh you've got to watch the whole thank but go
back to the start.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Plays Fleshborn and Haley play Ms Fletchborne.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
And the UK. Apparently shoplifting levels have doubled since the pandemic. Yeah,
and since the government changed last year, it's going to
have another twenty percent. It's like massive people are doing
it tough, and gin Z are like, well, I don't
want to work in a shop. It's going to get
like if I'm going to have to stop people stealing stuff,

(32:29):
I'm not wi white, I'm not paid enough to stop
them sticking. Yeah, that too hard. And people are like, oh, no,
you're young. You're supposed to be the people that populate
the retail sector as employees. Because weather companies don't want
to pay an adult right to an adult who has
the expectations of this salary. Yeah, what we want to
do is take advantage of a young worker. Yeah for sure,
maybe before you're qualified, or you know, while you're young

(32:52):
and you need, Yeah, a job that has the sort
of flexibility. I thought they didn't want to work in
retail because they gitted people. Well, h they ask you
to people that's going to people coming in and stealing
stuff from them, and then yeah, I'd be like, oh,
they don't. I don't want to talk to them, you
steal it.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
I remember when I worked fashion retile and I was
eighteen nineteen, and I used to.

Speaker 4 (33:14):
Think it was insane there was in charge of a shop. Yeah, ridiculous.
I think that when I walk like down Queen street
or something after worker at the weekend and you see
people like opening up a gigantic storage house thousands and
thousands of stuff and I know, or like when you
see them closing up a store, it's like that's one
person locking the door, Like what if you don't lock
at I would just be like I might have to

(33:35):
go back and check. Yeah, I just want to check
like five times before I live, because that is so
much responsibility. Oh my god. Yeah, I used to panic
sitting the alarm.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
You'd have to cash up because people are still using
blue cash then and they're sitting the alarm, locking the door,
locking the bolt, pulling down the roller. And then you'd
be like, did I do that? Or remember when I
was in charge of the shop and I just didn't
turn up. I was open at twelve o'clock. The second
girl turns up for the twelve o'clock cheft, she was like,
the straw's.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
Not open that in a mall, roots none stand in
charge of opening a store in the mall. And when
he didn't open on time, he got big. The mall's fine.
You like, if you're a store and you don't open, yeah,
and you like all the shops are open. You're just
just roll the door pulled down. Well, that's all we
wanted to ask this morning, is what happened when you
were in charge, whether it was a shop or you

(34:26):
were in charge of something. Yeah, the first the first
time you ever look after a kid and you're like,
but I'm a kid. Yeah, yeah, man.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
And I remember looking after my best friend's daughter when
she was really really young. She was like, just take
her to the park or something. And then she was
up there on the standing on this tower with a
big slide down. She just fell off the back of
the town and land her on her spine, like on
the back, and I was like, I've killed it. I've
killed it the first time daughter, she screamed. And then
when she's in a wheelchair, now, yeah, she'll never walk again. No, no,

(34:55):
she was all right, but listen look.

Speaker 6 (34:57):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
Mom came to pick her up. She was like, Mom,
I nearly died. What you want to hear from your
kids when you can see that were you in charge
of the service station?

Speaker 8 (35:10):
Now?

Speaker 4 (35:10):
I was never left in charge of the service stations,
so they knew better. Mom and Dad used to leave
us in charge of the farm when they go on
their winter jaunts. Oh yeah, I never took us on there.
You want to and the likes yeah yeah, tropical holidays. Yeah,
and that was full of calamities over well, this is
what trying to move cows and stuff? Oh yeah, looking

(35:30):
after like animals as a kid. Okay, this is what
we want to know when you're in charge. Maybe it
was at work at a young age, your siblings. Wait,
dance at MS number. You can take through nine six
nine six, what happened when you were in charge, So
we want to know what happened when you were in charge.
Gen Z doesn't want to be in charge of working

(35:52):
in stores. They're afraid of adults coming in, people coming
in to deal with thieves. I get it because if
you work in retail, like, aren't you just told like
just let people take it. It's not worth.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
We got jiu jitsu at our shop and when it
was a sign a clothing story, really just expense it
some some light jiu jitsu train You could choose karate,
jiu jitsu, taekwondo, or just boxing straight boxing.

Speaker 4 (36:21):
They just let you four go those classes and just
have like a crossbow behind the counter.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
Yeah, I had brought an illegal switchblade from Thailand, and
they said.

Speaker 4 (36:29):
That'll fire arms but sort of string propelled still hand
to hand. Any medieval weapon was allowed. Yes, you don't
know no bombing because at my work, yeah, m so
like nah numb chucks some some stories. And I was
in charge of a dog groom or a dog poked
its tongue ot while I was drimming round space, and

(36:50):
I cut the tongue everywhere. Okay. I worked at a
sunglass retailer and maybe someone didn't shut up properly and
four thousand dollars worth of sunglasses got stolen. See this
would be my worst nightmare. I couldn't be in charge
of a shop. Yeah, like I do something like that.
I just leave and they're like, and then wake up

(37:11):
at two in the morning and be like, did I
lock the sunglass? Did I lock that sunglass shop that
I work in?

Speaker 8 (37:18):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (37:19):
First time looking after my god son change of pooen
appy poop's bright red like he's bleeding internally, rang the
ambulance straight away, then proceeded to call the parents. Turns
out he loved a strange beet troop. Oh you've actually
legally you put a little mark on their hand, don't
you just Yeah, when my older brother was in charge

(37:42):
of my younger brother had a door closed on his thumb.
The thumb was on the hinge shut of the door,
and the door was completely closed. My little brother was
trying to annoy my older brother, who's hanging out with
his friends, and kick the door shut onto what was then,
that'll do it, completely, flatten thumb, that'll do it, Hannah,
you were helping someone who got wrong who was in charge.

Speaker 11 (38:02):
Yes, it didn't happen to me personally. But a couple
of years ago, I'm in an Aukan City. I was
walking home after work, so five o'clock in the afternoon,
and a bunch of kids had run into a sunglass
shop and literally seconds later they ran out with the
armble rushed past me sunglasses and I was walking past

(38:25):
and I see there's a young girl inside, must have
been eighteen years old. Yeah, stood there looking completely pale
in the face. And I walked in. No one else
in the shop like are you okay? And she just
burst out into tears, and I'm like, oh my god, okay,
all right, we're going to lock the shop. Have you
called the police? No, I haven't called the police. So
I called the police for her.

Speaker 4 (38:44):
Got it.

Speaker 11 (38:44):
I had like a fresh bottle of water, so I
gave that to her as well. I just completely like
had no idea what to do obviously, like I was
my twenties as well, so I'm like, oh my gosh,

Speaker 4 (39:01):
Least, yeah you were lucky that. Yeah, she was lucky

You could see why they don't want to Some want
to work in shops. I wouldn't want to stress. Would
we say Hannah is somewhat of a hero? I would say,

Once during class, the fire alarm went off. I looked
to the adults in the room for what we should do,
and they were looking at me like I should be
in charge, and I was like, Oh, I do pilarates
on fires. Sounds like it sounds like someone wasn't there
during the fire drill training. Here, just you hann can run. Yeah,

(39:51):
this is pretty wild. I was unqualified with zero prior
experience at twenty when I was given them job as
being a nanny. I was immediately trusted with the gives
of four children, family vehicles, pre expensive ones and just
a credit card. Wow. I basically just get lost all
the time driving the kids around because I lied in
my interview and I said I was familiar with the area.
I wasn't were miss gymnastics Swimmingly, It's nothing super bad,

(40:13):
but I should not have been in charge of anyone.
Could barely manage myself. How terrifying would this be? I've
just bloody lost the text, guys. This is that.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Oh, my brother and myself were left alone on the
farm like Vorn when the September earthquake happened, and we
lived in Greendale, ten k from the epicenter. It destroyed
a lot of the farm. Lucky, we had awesome neighbors
to help us with everything. I MEAs you're there, your
parents farms just getting torn apast.

Speaker 4 (40:38):
Came to slip into cracks.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
Ah, that's how imagine that all the chickens getting sucked
into the earth falling.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
Yeah, were just chasms of cown. There wasn't there that
fair footage of those that earthquake and the cows were
stuck because they were standing on a piece of land
that like slid down and it broke away from you. Yeah,
they were just like what. I don't think count Hayley's
imagining like a vacuum. The earth is a vacuum. Then
he's like some kind of Stephen and Kang horror from

(41:11):
sucking them into the of the world. Started working at
a bank straight out of high school, and the bank
manager died. I've only been there a couple of weeks,
so the branch was effctively closed because everybody knew him
so well, and they went to the funeral. I was
left behind to answer the phones. I had to crawl
around on the floor because there were people banging on
the windows telling them to hurry up and open but
I was just like trying to stay out. No no, no, no, no,
no open up, no no no. I stepped on was

(41:37):
eighteen and worked at our kids after school care. The
job was to check all the kids had been picked
up and collected and then lock up. Uh they thought
they checked, but no, there was a young girl in
the girl's toilet since she was locked into the school
by herself. And the early teens, I was responsible for
opening a dairy on my own early mornings. Actually one
or two fresh cream doughnuts when they were delivered, never found.

(41:57):
Yeah they've been delivered. Is it mock cream?

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Feeling a mock creme? Were they're not opening up at
four am and whipping cream?

Speaker 9 (42:07):
No?

Speaker 4 (42:07):
Yeah. When I was twenty five, I had to have
triplets and they just let me take them home. They
just let a twenty five year I would walk out
with three babies. This government. You always hear people with
their first baby. Yeah, they're just like I just walked
out of the hospital with a human.

Speaker 8 (42:22):
I got.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
My best friend's mum was really young when she had
my best friend and she said she like left the
hospital with this baby.

Speaker 4 (42:28):
Was like what and just like got on the bus,
like where's the manual? It was just like okay, Yeah,
I was a grad nurse in charge of a wrist
home at night. I don't only just graduated. I was
fresh and my nurse no and an older man tried
to underlive himself. Now that's an interesting way of putting it.
Can imagine dealing with that.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
Yeah, when I was about eight and my little bro
was five, my quarter was meant to be looking after
us and steered he snugg off to the tab So
I grabbed my brother and I took him down to
fantasy Land.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
And hastings eight and five.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Wow, it was free and they didn't really care for
a couple of kids were running around on their own.
Mum eventually found us in mate. She absolutely tore strips
off my cordor.

Speaker 4 (43:07):
Got horses? The horse? Did he have a good couple
of words?

Speaker 11 (43:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (43:11):
Get a box trap figure? Yeah, perhaps that's a quanilla.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Plays ms Fledgeborn and Hailey.

Speaker 3 (43:17):
Where was this in twenty eleven when I lived in
a flat with five women who slowly but surely all
acquired boyfriends.

Speaker 4 (43:27):
When one was a girl friend, one was gay, okay, okay,
one was gay? All of us? Are we ticked a
few box boxes? Ye?

Speaker 3 (43:34):
Yeah, some some were brown and some were gay. It
was really we were perfect cast for a show on Netflix.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
Yeah, because this is amazing. So we received an email from.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Ops opes, how are we saying this Opes Partners anyway.
What they've created is a flat guest costometer or costometer
that is a cheecking and fun way to figure out
if you have a flatmate who has a boyfriend or
girlfriend or partners staying and you're like they have not

(44:06):
financially been contributing. They've come up with a little website
thing that you can use to work out, actually how
much you might be able to charge them.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
I love this. This isn't for the person that stays
once on a Saturday night. This is for that person
that they've just started saying that won't leave the three
nights a week, three nights, four four nights a week,
and he's been here for two weeks snacking on the
communal snacks.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Yeah yeah, Or you'd like cooks a flat right, and
then you come off with another plate like I'm hungers malungus,
like I'm not gonna have enough food.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
Okay, we've all been in flats where this has happened. Okay,
so it's dubbed ub.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Dot opis OPES Partners dot cota in forod slash flatmate
dash costs.

Speaker 4 (44:49):
That needs a better yeah, tining it up. But here
we got flatomitter dot com. Yea something, I.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Think maybe this could become a full time thing. Okay,
so you go to this website and we'll work this out.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
Okay. The folk scenario.

Speaker 3 (45:02):
First question asks you how many weeks has your flatmates
friend been staying over? So in total, let's say, over
the cost of last month, when were month's worth of
bells sory they stayed? Should we say two weeks out
of two weeks?

Speaker 4 (45:16):
Yeah? Yeah, okay, two weeks. But then you this is
why it's always in a flat situation, because then what
if they were also then staying at their house. Yeah,
so it was a two weeks less But that's not
I'm the flat mat. I don't give a shit about
his flat flat costs. That's not my business. They're saying
they're taking the girlfriend with them when they go back
to his flat, so technically she's not using any hot

(45:36):
water or stuff when she's not there. That would even
it out. And also, have you noticed that Haley has
a secret heater and just walks around just wearing shorts.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
Well, I got the cold room out on the cot
room of the covered up fireplace.

Speaker 4 (45:48):
He's got a plug and she's just plunging about okay.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
Let's say so, so he's been around for about a
month okay, and stays let's say three nights a week, okay.
And then the next question, how much does your flatmate
pay per week for their room?

Speaker 4 (46:05):
So their room, let's say two fifty. I don't know
how is that two feet? That could be? How many
showers a day does their special friend take. Let's say
they do two shower because then they had fun times
and needed to shower a shower after and the very
less wheeze, and then that's a that's just basically sex education.

Speaker 7 (51:42):
Yeah, I had to go to school for like the
whole week. So when the whole school was there, everyone's
in full uniform and I'm in sports uniform.

Speaker 3 (53:17):
Surely it's not in the regions adult fun times if
you've got oil and you're playing around, and.

Speaker 4 (53:24):
I think it's safe to say it was and it's
edible too. What flavor was it? Six four four? What
flavor was it for? Banana? You're out the door? Oh banana?

Set a long dress. You could hide it, yeah, hide it.
You probably just got barefoot. It was a strawberry. Strawberry.
I don't know what flavor I was expecting that would

body rejected that? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:17):
Yuck.

Speaker 4 (54:18):
Um. It was on the morning of a dirty weekend
away before my boyfriend moved away, and the hair removal
cream I used burnt. The only part of me that

the area, someone said early twenties, it would be a
great dyea to get a Brazilian wax for my new

Speaker 4 (55:35):

trying to get trying to get rid of you. By
the sounds of it. Yeah, read between the lines on
that one. Cyonara play z ms, fletched one and Hailey.

Speaker 6 (55:56):
Fact of the Day, Day, Day, day, day, deep do.

Speaker 4 (56:12):
Well, it's pickle week hereot Fact of the Day started
in my absence. You said, apt a hell of a topic. Yeah,
I'm actually quite pleased with it.

Speaker 3 (56:18):
We were going to maybe do a stitch up vorn,
you know, and sort of leave you flailing for the
rest of the week.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
Yeah, but no pickles. There's lots of facts about pickles.
Very excited, including today's fact of the Day. Pickles can
stop cramp immediately.

Speaker 9 (56:31):
What.

Speaker 4 (56:32):
Yeah, I've heard that the peckle jets are salty peckle jet. Yes,
it's not about hydration because it works too quick for that.
The vinegar and the high salt content stimulate receptors in
the mouth of throat, triggering a reflex in the nervousness
thing that tells over excited muscles to relax. But where
when are you?

Speaker 3 (56:51):
When have you ever had a cramp and immediately been
near a jar of pickles?

Speaker 4 (56:56):
So apparently in some situations there are jars of pickle
juice for athletes who have known to experience cramps, so
they can come off at the rent they get, get
the cramp gone the pickle juice. So it also does
like if you drink it, it's got electrolytes and hydration
to it as well, right, the sodium and potassium. Of course,

(57:16):
sodium's like the salts, and it is very salty, so
of course in moderation, but there are two electrolytes that
regulate nerve and muscle function, and if you drink pickle
juice after extreme exercise, it can restore electrolyte balance faster
than plain water. DIY sports like a little half marathon
or some kind of big endurance event. Yes, hoop that in, yeah,

(57:38):
pop that down, pop that in. Okay, yeah, But then
I was like, oh, this is interesting about the pickle
juice reducing cramps and having some other sort of reported
benefits of like blood sugar control, the anti antioxidants and
pickles and the salty sweet combo can trigger satious satiation
signals which means you feel full of faster. So so

(58:00):
the original ozimpic pickles inpic pickles impact. What's your what's
your track?

Speaker 8 (58:09):
Mon?

Speaker 4 (58:10):
No, I'm a pickle. You're on what?

Speaker 1 (58:12):
Sorry?

Speaker 4 (58:13):
Pickles impic? So then I said, are there any downsides
to the pickles? And of course too much salt. They
got high salt content, so that's not like a great
idea to be doing it too much. But uh, the
World Health Organization did did classify it as a group
to be possible carcinogenic to humans. Oh, the same group

(58:34):
as alvira leaf extract and radio frequency from cell phones. Okay,
so it's just like basically long exposure to it which
it's made. Are they nuts that you can is it
almonds or walnuts that are good for cramp or there's
a nut that's good for cramp as well. I feel
like there is for immediate year that helps you. I'm

(58:54):
pretty sure there is. Again, but you could also do
coconut water would be better for you with electrolytes potassium.
It was like a media and then it's over. You'd
had a pickle juice and it would be gone away
quicker I have been. When I feel foot cramp coming on,
I will engage times. Yeah, I let it cramp. Oh,
I hate it. It's a good it's a good pain. Yeah, man,

(59:16):
tear if it's anywhere else. It's something about the foot
and the toes go like no, my hips sometimes. Yeah,
that's not a fun cramp. Get your pickle juice ready
to get rid of that. So today's fact today is
pickle juice can rejuice cramps.

Speaker 6 (59:33):
Fact of the day, day day day day. Yeah, did do.

Speaker 4 (59:47):
Some message And I used to play in the you
know their friend used to play in the n r L. Oh, yeah,
the rugby league. There was pickle. There was pickle juice
on the sideline in case somebody got cramp.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Play Fleashboard and Haley zidims Flitchford and Haley.

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
I sort of feel like I've got something to a story,
but I can't say anything, do you know what I mean? Like,
there's not I can't actually say. You'll get in trouble
I'll get in trouble. But I just thought it was
really interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:00:16):
So you're on this app. I want an app that

Speaker 4 (01:01:24):
App hashtag humble brag that I got accepted. Yes, because
some people are still waiting, aren't they.

Speaker 3 (01:01:31):
So many people are still waiting. It's not very like
and it's global, so it doesn't localize you. So you
see people from all over the world, right, and you
see you see celebrities, and I've seen and I'm weird
chat about this all the time because you're not allowed
to screenshot, you're not allowed to video record, you're not
allowed to do anything where they kick you off.

Speaker 4 (01:01:46):
Even though who was the celebrity? Someone took a photo
on their friend's phone of the celebrity on this app,
wasn't it Ben Efflick? Yeah, but there was no there
was someone else and then they put that on Twitter. Yeah,
but there's nothing stopping You wouldn't have known who that was.

Speaker 9 (01:02:01):

But if you get caught, like I know, someone's spoken
on a podcast about singing celebrity and then they got
banned from the Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:02:10):

Speaker 4 (01:02:24):
You know, the guy from that TV show? Yeah, that
TV shows? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:02:29):
And then I haven't been on it for a bit
and I was like, prow, I just have a little
prow in front of the TV last night, and I
saw I can't I'm not gonna say, I can't say.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
You neven know.

Speaker 4 (01:03:27):
I wonder if you'd think your body's a wind Land flitch?
What do you mean? I didn't do anything that's I
don't wonder if.

Speaker 3 (01:03:39):
You back on Tinder with you Maga's gosh.

Speaker 9 (01:03:49):
You.

Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
I said, I wonder if you'd find your body wonderful.
It's funny. It could be anyone that if I, if I,
you know, in a world imagine that.

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
And then you list into a song on the radio, Matt,
it's about me.

Speaker 4 (01:04:03):
It's about me. Yea heave and woman ruined My life
play ms fleshed one and Haley as you missed it.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
I talked about this maybe last week that I've had
a friend visiting from Australia who put his passport through
the washing machine and tried to blame me because he
handed he put the clothes in but eye press play.
But it absolutely tore this Australian weak little papery past.

Speaker 4 (01:04:36):
Has the nice little laminated page like we do, which
is really i'll say the key page a key page.

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
Instead, his page actually came off of the scenes and
was sort of faded and washed away. And then we
rung the Australian consulate and they said, here's your options.
Pay this amount for an emergency passport that will only
last six weeks, or just turn up and have a
little go.

Speaker 4 (01:04:55):
You know, I have a little think about it and
having a go at international travel the passports a while option.

Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
Yeah, but the guy the Australian consulate said, like it
were between Australia and New Zealand, if you've got enough
documentation and you can show your busted passport, they'll be
like all right, making exception, but the manager's discretion.

Speaker 4 (01:05:11):
We had a friend that came back from Hawaii like that. Yeah,
I mean, it can happen. It's just that when you
get into Aussie they are really strict.

Speaker 3 (01:05:19):
Like I find that airport all the AUSSI airport's the
most intimidating area.

Speaker 4 (01:05:23):
Because you've it's because of what it's got nothing to do.
It's supposed to be wine. Yeah you know what I mean. Yeah, guys,
I can't help you're actually this is actually racist. It's
actually racist. It is anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:05:38):
So so that was there, right, and then we made
the executive decision wing it on the day rather than
lose a bunch of money which you didn't have to spare.

Speaker 4 (01:05:47):
So you were just well, it'll be fine. You wouldn't
mind paying for the emergency passport if it lasted another
ten years, if it was your new passport.

Speaker 8 (01:05:55):
But no, for them.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
It was it was a six month temporary thing.

Speaker 3 (01:05:59):
How we Yeah, anyway, so we turn up yesterday very
early to Auckland International Airport to get him on this flight.
And suddenly I was like, get your story straight, like
it's all genuine. But I was like, you've got to
be clear. We're going to be very like you know,
we're here. We're going to be warm, but we're going

(01:06:21):
to be firm.

Speaker 4 (01:06:21):
We need to get home.

Speaker 3 (01:06:22):
This is a situation that happened. He was like, I'm panicking.
You're better, you just deal with it. I was like, okay,
went up to the counter and I said.

Speaker 4 (01:06:28):
Hi, we just need to talk to someone about a
situation with this passport. And then the woman opened it.

Speaker 3 (01:06:34):
We dried it since then with a hair dryer, so
it was puffed to like, you know, triple thickness.

Speaker 4 (01:06:40):
Did you burn the edges and put some tea on it? Yea, yeah,
to make it look like a pirate man. Yeah, remember
when we did that. Yeah, it was fun.

Speaker 3 (01:06:47):
Lemon is the other way yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah no,
but but the picture page was looking a bit better
though detached. Okay, and the woman said, oh, I think
it could be all right because we can see that
that's you and that number down the bottom, that's really
what when she said, I'll just go check with my
manager and all good. So we were like, we're flight,
We're all good today. This other woman and then we

(01:07:08):
see three women gathering phones are on the on the go,
ding ding ding ding ding. They come back eventually and
it's a different woman. She goes, it's a no, I'm sorry.
She said, We've just gotten off the phone from from
Australia and they won't accept you at their end. So
you know, it's like, we can put you on the plane,

(01:07:29):
but if we if we send you over and Australia
says no, then they get a fine.

Speaker 4 (01:07:33):
The airline gets fine for accepting you. This is why
the airlines are really strict with like visas and passports
wherever you go, because yeah, they airlines are heavily fine.

Speaker 9 (01:07:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:07:42):
So then my friend was like, well, what are we
What am I going to do, like get an emergency passport,
book a new flight? Flight sales are over there like
good luck, and I just said no, put on ugly fast.

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
I said no, that won't do.

Speaker 3 (01:07:57):
I said, We've wrung this Australian consulate and they said
that this happens all the time and it's at a
manager's discretion. Now, as the manager, I would employ you
to use your discretion. And she said, well, I'm not
the manager. I could ring my manager, did you Karen
enough for the manager?

Speaker 4 (01:08:15):
Karen middle name Karen right Karen Karend And then I said,
you know, like, well that'd be great if you could
ring your manager Nick minute. Last week Georgia, we ran,
oh are you still Nick minute? No, that's the way.
It was a resounding yes, we are there. It's like

(01:08:36):
we're not. We're not doing anything anyway. So I say,
it'll be great if you could ring your manager. Thank
you very much. She gets on the blower. A little
bit later.

Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
Nick minute one would say, I guess he's going to
Australia with no passport.

Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:08:49):
I went through it, just make a few calls and
apparently it was an absolute nightmare for him when he
went through customers.

Speaker 4 (01:08:54):
But it's not my problem anymore. Wait customs in New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (01:08:58):
No, like going through custom New Zealand was easy because
they ring a head at every stop.

Speaker 4 (01:09:03):
There's a person this is his name, and he's flying
with no passport. You can see why management are like, no,
just what a headache? Yeah, but apparently going through Australia
absolute nightmare. But again, like I said, see it and
you were born there, like you're a citizen, Like just yeah,
it's not a big deal. So I think sometimes you
