- 0:18Speaker 1: know that down to phone tap. Because of everything that's
- 0:24Speaker 1: been going on in the world, the average worker has
- 0:27Speaker 1: not had it easy, from layoffs to salary reductions, lack
- 0:33Speaker 1: of job security. It's been really really tough out there,
- 0:36Speaker 1: and a lot of workers are on edge. That's why
- 0:39Speaker 1: it's the perfect time for us to call one of
- 0:41Speaker 1: them and ask them to donate to a charity that's
- 0:45Speaker 1: strongly supported by the company she works for. And not
- 0:50Speaker 1: only are we going to ask her to give generously,
- 0:52Speaker 1: but once she finds out exactly what type of charity
- 0:55Speaker 1: this is, I'm pretty sure the only thing she's gonna
- 0:58Speaker 1: want to give is the middle finger. You'll hear in
- 1:01Speaker 1: your brand new phone tapp right now on the twenties.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Tell HI, this is done. Hey don this is Mark
- 1:12Speaker 1: Thompson with Corporate HR. How are you doing today? I'm
- 1:15Speaker 1: doing well. In you I'm doing great. Um. I was
- 1:18Speaker 1: just going down the employee list in your region here
- 1:21Speaker 1: and I saw that you donated to the company's charity
- 1:24Speaker 1: of choice last year. UM, I think I did. Yeah,
- 1:28Speaker 1: you did, and we just wanted to say thank you
- 1:30Speaker 1: for doing that, and we noticed you didn't answer the
- 1:32Speaker 1: email about this year's charity drive. UM, I don't think
- 1:37Speaker 1: I've got it. Hang on one second, let me shut
- 1:40Speaker 1: Oh no, look, it's okay. We can just handle this
- 1:42Speaker 1: over the phone, because I'll let you know. They've decided
- 1:44Speaker 1: to change up where the proceeds are going to be
- 1:46Speaker 1: going and instead of doing the United Way, it's going
- 1:49Speaker 1: to be a different organization this year. Okay, what's the organization.
- 1:54Speaker 1: It's a new one. It's called CORE and the company's
- 1:57Speaker 1: really excited about this. We're one hundred percent behind and yeah,
- 2:02Speaker 1: what do they do? Can you tell me a little
- 2:03Speaker 1: bit more sure? Well, CORE is an acronym. It stands
- 2:07Speaker 1: for CEO Organizational Relief exclamation point. Oh that's interesting, So
- 2:16Speaker 1: yeah it is. Huh what exactly does that mean? You know,
- 2:19Speaker 1: with everything that went on in the world last year,
- 2:21Speaker 1: life hasn't been easy for anyone, especially for our CEO.
- 2:25Speaker 1: So this is going to be our way of being
- 2:27Speaker 1: able to give back to him and thank him for
- 2:29Speaker 1: all the sacrifices that he's made. What you still with me,
- 2:35Speaker 1: the CEO of our company? Yeah, Robert, Okay, so let
- 2:40Speaker 1: me kind of wrap my head around this. So our
- 2:42Speaker 1: company has a new charity and all the proceeds go
- 2:46Speaker 1: to Robert the CEO exactly, CEO organizational relief exclamation point.
- 2:52Speaker 1: So how much you think you'd like to donate? Why
- 2:55Speaker 1: would I give money to our CEO? He makes men
- 3:00Speaker 1: of dollars a year, Like, I can't even understand. I'm
- 3:03Speaker 1: kind of okay, Well, let's put this in perspective, don,
- 3:05Speaker 1: I know everybody has had it hard, but I think
- 3:08Speaker 1: our CEO has probably gone through the toughest time of
- 3:11Speaker 1: anyone in the whole company. Really. You know a lot
- 3:15Speaker 1: of us took pay cuts, yes, and that was very
- 3:18Speaker 1: hard for Robert to take. A mental toll that he
- 3:21Speaker 1: experienced signing all those smaller paychecks. That was unprecedented mental toll.
- 3:27Speaker 1: So you're telling me that we're paying for his therapy
- 3:30Speaker 1: a multimillionaire. Again, Don, this isn't about all layoffs and
- 3:34Speaker 1: salary reductions, which I know you personally experienced exactly. I
- 3:38Speaker 1: did personally experience that. So that's why none of this
- 3:41Speaker 1: makes sense. Well, first of all, Robert is very grateful
- 3:44Speaker 1: that you were willing to go through that, But this
- 3:46Speaker 1: is also about the drastic lifestyle changes that he suffered. Oh,
- 3:51Speaker 1: there's people that are facing eviction because they lost their jobs.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Robert was one of those people. He lost two of
- 3:57Speaker 1: his mansions. You've got to be kidding me. His life
- 4:00Speaker 1: changes are completely different than a lot of people, but
- 4:03Speaker 1: he suffers just as much as the average person. Like
- 4:06Speaker 1: you know, he has an annual trip to the Maldives
- 4:08Speaker 1: and they usually stop off at Turks and Kikos, but
- 4:11Speaker 1: this year he could only go to Kikos, not Turks.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Could you imagine, poor multi millionaires CEO Robert and his
- 4:19Speaker 1: fancy trips and expensive houses. Poor him. I know I
- 4:22Speaker 1: felt horrible about it too when I found out. Oh
- 4:25Speaker 1: my god, I can not even believe this is a
- 4:27Speaker 1: real conversation right now. I cannot believe it either, Dawn.
- 4:29Speaker 1: So can I put you down for two hundred dollars
- 4:32Speaker 1: or three hundred? Maybe four hundred would put you into
- 4:35Speaker 1: the platinum level. What the hell the freaking platinum level means, oh, well,
- 4:38Speaker 1: that guarantees you job security for at least six months,
- 4:42Speaker 1: because Robert does see who donates and exactly how much.
- 4:45Speaker 1: So I want you to keep your job. I'm pretty
- 4:47Speaker 1: sure this is illegal, and matter of fact, I'm probably
- 4:49Speaker 1: going to own one of Robert's mansions at the end
- 4:52Speaker 1: of this one, I contact my lawyer. Okay, so is
- 4:54Speaker 1: that a yes or a no on the donation. That's
- 4:57Speaker 1: a big no. Oh okay, well that's unfortunate news. I'm
- 5:01Speaker 1: probably gonna have to tell Robert about this directly. You
- 5:04Speaker 1: know what, I really hope you do. A matter of fact,
- 5:06Speaker 1: I want to get the chance to talk to him
- 5:07Speaker 1: about it myself. How about that. That sounds great? And
- 5:10Speaker 1: maybe Colleen can join you on that conversation so that
- 5:13Speaker 1: we can all be in on the prank call together.
- 5:15Speaker 1: How does that sound, Colleen? Colleen's the one that asked
- 5:19Speaker 1: me to call you to do this prank phone call,
- 5:20Speaker 1: because my name's actually Jeff from the radio show Broken
- 5:23Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the Morning, and we're doing the phone's app
- 5:25Speaker 1: on you. Yeah, I'm sorry, yeah, yeah, Colleen email does
- 5:31Speaker 1: She said the two of you were complaining to each
- 5:33Speaker 1: other about how your company was cheap, and we thought
- 5:36Speaker 1: Core would be a perfect charity for you to donate to.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Do you know how mad I was. Oh my god,
- 5:41Speaker 1: I was ready to straggle you over the phone. I
- 5:44Speaker 1: didn't even get to tell you Robert had to downgrade
- 5:46Speaker 1: his yacht from three jet skis down to just two.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Get out of here. Oh my goodness. But I guess
- 5:51Speaker 1: we'll just deal with that charity next year. Wake up
- 5:56Speaker 1: every morning on Reuben ninety two point five
