- 0:23Speaker 1: employees they have been doing for years as part of
- 0:25Speaker 1: the office culture to make everybody feel like they're part
- 0:28Speaker 1: of the team. You know. Well, today I pose as
- 0:31Speaker 1: an HR rep and I call a guy who's about
- 0:33Speaker 1: to start a brand new job next week, okay, and
- 0:36Speaker 1: I just want to let him know about one of
- 0:38Speaker 1: our unique company traditions. I think it might make him
- 0:43Speaker 1: feel a little uncomfortable, but I'm hoping he can get
- 0:46Speaker 1: on board by the end of this. It's your brand
- 0:49Speaker 1: new phone tap right now, it's another on the twenties. Hello, Hello,
- 0:58Speaker 1: I'm looking to speak with Ryan. This is Ryan. Hey Ryan,
- 1:02Speaker 1: my name's Cooper. I work in HR at the media Agency.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, hello, Cooper him. Yeah, I know we haven't
- 1:08Speaker 1: spoken before. I just want to call and welcome you
- 1:11Speaker 1: to the team. So it's very kind of you. I'm
- 1:13Speaker 1: very excited to be joining you. Guys. We're excited to
- 1:15Speaker 1: have you. And I see right here your first days
- 1:17Speaker 1: on Monday, Yes, sir, Monday morning. That's really exciting. I
- 1:21Speaker 1: want to give you a quick rundown of your first
- 1:24Speaker 1: day and kind of what to expect. I really appreciate that. Yeah,
- 1:28Speaker 1: So when you come in, we'll get y'all set up
- 1:30Speaker 1: with your key card, badge and security and everything perfect.
- 1:34Speaker 1: And do you want if I ask, do you know
- 1:36Speaker 1: of anyone that's worked for the company before? No, I
- 1:40Speaker 1: don't think so. Well. Our CEO started this tradition about
- 1:44Speaker 1: thirty years ago and still going on today. Before we
- 1:47Speaker 1: have our morning roundup meeting, we go around the room
- 1:51Speaker 1: and kiss everyone on the mouth. I need to be
- 1:58Speaker 1: honest with you, I've never heard of anything like this before.
- 2:02Speaker 1: I know it's it's a little unconventional, but it's just
- 2:04Speaker 1: something that the founders of the company did when they started,
- 2:07Speaker 1: and it turned into this big success and it stayed
- 2:09Speaker 1: with the culture ever since. I mean, why why do
- 2:13Speaker 1: you think we're so profitable now? It's because of the
- 2:15Speaker 1: mouth kissing. You know, So I just didn't want you
- 2:18Speaker 1: to be surprised. On Monday morning when you come in,
- 2:20Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of smooching going on and
- 2:22Speaker 1: it's very normal. All right. Again, I've never heard of
- 2:30Speaker 1: anything like this before. No, that makes sense because employees
- 2:33Speaker 1: are actually discouraged from talking about it outside the company walls,
- 2:37Speaker 1: because you know, other groups or businesses might hear about
- 2:40Speaker 1: it and think it's weird or worse still, try and
- 2:43Speaker 1: steal it from us. But here we're just one big,
- 2:45Speaker 1: happy family. That's very interesting, you know. And I don't
- 2:50Speaker 1: want to be rude. But is this something that I
- 2:52Speaker 1: kid opt out of? Oh, definitely not. No, That's why
- 2:56Speaker 1: I'm calling you to make sure you're good with it. Oh,
- 2:59Speaker 1: if you're wondering, tongue is not allowed. It's usually just
- 3:02Speaker 1: a quick peck, like how a granny might kiss. Yeah
- 3:05Speaker 1: I was, I wasn't one very short. We don't want
- 3:09Speaker 1: it to get weird. Maybe this is a good time
- 3:11Speaker 1: to practice. I'll I'll kiss you over the phone and
- 3:13Speaker 1: then you kiss me back. Okay, so it's like this,
- 3:15Speaker 1: it's like, oh, hey, Ryan, good to see you. Um,
- 3:22Speaker 1: I guess I understand. But if you forgot my name's Cooper,
- 3:25Speaker 1: so you can say it back to me, Hi Cooper,
- 3:29Speaker 1: m hm. And you want me to kiss you? Yeah,
- 3:34Speaker 1: go ahead, I'm ready on the mouth. Uh okay, okay,
- 3:39Speaker 1: um oh, all right, great, let's get down to business.
- 3:45Speaker 1: And didn't that feel good? If I'm being honest, it
- 3:49Speaker 1: feels a little strange. You know, I've never done or
- 3:52Speaker 1: heard of this before. Yeah, I understand that, but you
- 3:55Speaker 1: have to admit it felt good, right I. I really
- 4:00Speaker 1: don't have any any emotion to it. It just was
- 4:03Speaker 1: kind of shocking. I know some people think it's a
- 4:05Speaker 1: little bit weird at first, but as you do it
- 4:07Speaker 1: more like give it a week, you'll feel like it's
- 4:10Speaker 1: perfectly normal. And before you know, I mean, you're gonna
- 4:12Speaker 1: be kissing salespeople, the accounting team, even the janitor. Carl.
- 4:17Speaker 1: I don't want to kiss all these people. Why would
- 4:19Speaker 1: you say that they're part of your family now, your
- 4:21Speaker 1: business family. Carl's actually the best kisser of the group.
- 4:25Speaker 1: Well that's great for Carl. I just it's great for
- 4:29Speaker 1: all of us because we get to kiss him. I
- 4:31Speaker 1: gotta be honest with you, this doesn't sound legal to me.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I don't don't I hear you okay, and so maybe
- 4:37Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of people that are a
- 4:39Speaker 1: little bit uncomfortable with this at first. So here's what
- 4:42Speaker 1: we'll do. I'll tell the wrest of the group not
- 4:44Speaker 1: to kiss you, and you and I can just kiss
- 4:46Speaker 1: for the first day, and then every day after that,
- 4:49Speaker 1: we'll build up the kisses until you're comfortable kissing other people.
- 4:52Speaker 1: We could kiss once an hour or twice an hour
- 4:55Speaker 1: if you'd like. I don't want to kiss schedule. That
- 4:57Speaker 1: doesn't sound like, that's not that's not okay. You don't understand.
- 5:00Speaker 1: I'm an HR, so it's okay, and I that okay,
- 5:05Speaker 1: that's that's not okay. It doesn't matter what your job
- 5:07Speaker 1: title is, like, you can't just speak like like I
- 5:09Speaker 1: don't know you Ryan. We just kissed, and now you're
- 5:12Speaker 1: treating me this way. No, we didn't we You you
- 5:15Speaker 1: were like showing me how people kiss on the phone.
- 5:17Speaker 1: That's that's not a kiss. But you kiss me back.
- 5:21Speaker 1: I look, I felt a little pressure. I didn't like.
- 5:24Speaker 1: I didn't stick my tongue in you or kiss you
- 5:26Speaker 1: with my lips. I made a little sound. Now I
- 5:28Speaker 1: feel like you're using me. You just kissed me like,
- 5:30Speaker 1: I like, I meant nothing to you and now you're
- 5:32Speaker 1: tossing me aside. What are you talking about? Man? I
- 5:35Speaker 1: feel I feel like like I'm like, I'm a cheap prostitute. Now,
- 5:38Speaker 1: how is this is nothing prostitute? How are you a prostitute?
- 5:41Speaker 1: What are you? Ryan? If this is how you want
- 5:42Speaker 1: to treat someone that's in your family, your business family,
- 5:46Speaker 1: then I don't know. Maybe this isn't the right job
- 5:48Speaker 1: for you. Maybe you're right, Maybe I don't belong there
- 5:50Speaker 1: all right, because I'm not okay with kissing a bunch
- 5:52Speaker 1: of randos on the mouth every single day. Okay, Well,
