Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: One of our favorite things to do when prank calling
- 0:02Speaker 1: someone at their work, if they're in a medium sized
- 0:05Speaker 1: building with like lots of employees, there is basically to
- 0:08Speaker 1: say hey, I'm the new guy. Yeah, and then classic
- 0:11Speaker 1: can make it awkward as quickly as possible because they
- 0:14Speaker 1: have to be nice to the new guy. Right, they
- 0:17Speaker 1: can't yell at them in the first three minutes. No, okay,
- 0:20Speaker 1: well this guy can't. But I didn't want to provoke him.
- 0:24Speaker 1: I just had to tell him something really really important
- 0:27Speaker 1: in your phone tap right now.

- 1:06Speaker 2: but yeah, you know what, well, yeah, it's cool. Yeah.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Cool. So I know that you and I haven't officially
- 1:13Speaker 1: met yet, but when I sat down with HR, I
- 1:16Speaker 1: put you down as my emergency contact.
- 1:20Speaker 2: I'm sorry, what, yeah, you did what you're.
- 1:24Speaker 1: My emergency contact? Now, I hope that's okay. Since we're
- 1:28Speaker 1: like basically named twins for.
- 1:32Speaker 2: You, you put my name down for emergencies, right, Why
- 1:36Speaker 2: would you do that? We don't know each other. This
- 1:39Speaker 2: is the first time we've ever spoken. Why would you
- 1:40Speaker 2: put me down as your emergency now?
- 1:42Speaker 1: You're your tone is so different now because I mean
- 1:45Speaker 1: when we first started talking, you're really friendly and now well.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Gareth yea, lest I apologize if I sounded hostile. I
- 1:54Speaker 2: was not trying to be right. I just I'm concerned
- 1:57Speaker 2: because this is serious and you put me someone you
- 2:00Speaker 2: don't know. Yeah, we've never met.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I see what you're saying.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Butt.
- 2:05Speaker 1: But when I was in HR, I asked them, I said, hey,
- 2:09Speaker 1: just between you and me, who's the person with the
- 2:11Speaker 1: coolest car?
- 2:12Speaker 2: Here?
- 2:13Speaker 1: What they said you? So, I was like, I'm sold,
- 2:17Speaker 1: I'm just gonna put your name down an extension.
- 2:19Speaker 2: What are you talking about? Coolest car? I drive a Taurus.
- 2:22Speaker 1: You don't have to brag to me. I know.
- 2:24Speaker 2: No, that's not a cool car. Look, that's not how
- 2:27Speaker 2: you pick someone for emergency.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I mean the car stuff, I guess doesn't
- 2:32Speaker 1: really matter. But as of right now, you're my emergency contact,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and because of that, you should know that I've been
- 2:37Speaker 1: diagnosed with RFS. What restless fork syndrome Restless spork like
- 2:43Speaker 1: restless fork syndrome. It only happens during the holidays, but
- 2:46Speaker 1: it's where even when I'm completely full, I can't stop eating, Okay, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter,
- 2:54Speaker 1: like my fork can't be control like over the holidays,
- 2:58Speaker 1: I might need to call you and you just have
- 2:59Speaker 1: to pull me away from like the dessert table, if
- 3:01Speaker 1: you know.
- 3:02Speaker 2: And so that's not what an emergency contact is for.
- 3:05Speaker 2: And that's not what I'm doing because I'll be off work,
- 3:07Speaker 2: so you shouldn't be contacting me.
- 3:09Speaker 1: It sounds to me like you're pretty clueless on understanding
- 3:12Speaker 1: what an emergency contact is.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I am understanding. You're not understanding me.
- 3:18Speaker 1: No, you're not understanding. You're my contact if there's an emergency.
- 3:21Speaker 2: I shouldn't be your contact. I should not be your contact.
- 3:26Speaker 1: I know you better than I know anybody else in
- 3:28Speaker 1: the company.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Do you do you do? Have you talked to anyone else?
- 3:32Speaker 2: You talk to HR? Why do you put the HR person?
- 3:34Speaker 2: That's how ridiculous. Did you meet a cat on the
- 3:37Speaker 2: way put that on there.
- 3:38Speaker 1: The HR meeting was a zoom call and their screen
- 3:41Speaker 1: was black, so I have never really seen that. Oh
- 3:43Speaker 1: my god, I feel a lot closer to you.
- 3:45Speaker 2: You are in a horrible situation, like you might die.
- 3:49Speaker 2: You want someone that really knows what you would want
- 3:53Speaker 2: to be able to give you the care you need
- 3:56Speaker 2: the care.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Wait it, hold on, are you asking me out?
- 4:03Speaker 2: You want to date? What is wrong with you?
- 4:06Speaker 1: Okay? You know what. Listen, emergency contact should stay professional.
- 4:11Speaker 1: I am not hitting on you, No, I get it,
- 4:14Speaker 1: but I do know only someone who really cares about
- 4:17Speaker 1: me would yell at me like this.
- 4:19Speaker 2: So I appreciate that I'm yelling at you because you're
- 4:21Speaker 2: being an idiot.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I like your passion, but there's more that you should know,
- 4:24Speaker 1: like today has been a really bad day for my socks,

- 4:34Speaker 1: the SOX.
- 4:35Speaker 2: But I know an actual diagnosis.
