- 0:25Speaker 1: ever been frustrated with the city in the last ten minutes? Well,
- 0:32Speaker 1: because depending on where you live, it can feel like
- 0:35Speaker 1: you're paying taxes on everything and they're just shutting down
- 0:39Speaker 1: the bridge that goes to your house. Or no, I
- 0:43Speaker 1: was gonna say, nothing gets done, or things take forever,
- 0:46Speaker 1: like a certain questionable bridge. Yeah. Anyway, today we call
- 0:50Speaker 1: a guy who just wants a simple fix for a
- 0:53Speaker 1: pothole that's been there on his street. They don't have
- 0:56Speaker 1: time for the Well, he's emailed the city about at it,
- 1:00Speaker 1: even left a few angry voicemails, and now finally he
- 1:04Speaker 1: is going to get a response. That response is Jose
- 1:08Speaker 1: pranking him. I'll teach you to ask for improvements in
- 1:13Speaker 1: this town. It's your phone tap, right, now the twenties. Hello, yeah,
- 1:23Speaker 1: and that's when I shouted back, dude, those aren't gummy bears,
- 1:26Speaker 1: those are live bees. Hello. Hello, oh hi? Sorry is
- 1:34Speaker 1: this Joshwood? Yes? This is Josh. Shoot. Who's this? Hey Josh.
- 1:39Speaker 1: My name's Travis. I work in road maintenance for the city,
- 1:41Speaker 1: and I see here you file the complaint about a pothole.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Huh yeah, thank god, somebody's finally called me back. It's
- 1:48Speaker 1: like been three to four weeks since I filed that complaint.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, on ten Street near the intersection of Evergreen. Yep,
- 1:55Speaker 1: that we saw it. We saw that, so well you
- 2:00Speaker 1: saw it. Are you going to fix it? I mean,
- 2:01Speaker 1: because not just me has been complained about this. Well,
- 2:04Speaker 1: you know, not to make an excuse, but the city's
- 2:07Speaker 1: budget has been really cut and I'm literally the only
- 2:11Speaker 1: guy who laughed on staff for fixing pot holes. So
- 2:14Speaker 1: I am which so sorry. It's taken so long, man,
- 2:17Speaker 1: What are you telling me? You're you actually the guy
- 2:19Speaker 1: that goes in and fills in these poddles. You're the
- 2:21Speaker 1: only one. It's just me, so low numero o. No,
- 2:25Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. The economy, you know, inflation or more like deflation,
- 2:30Speaker 1: because pot holes, right, they can deflate your your tires.
- 2:34Speaker 1: You probably don't think that's that funny. Not really? Sorry,
- 2:37Speaker 1: all right, well how long is what's the time frame then?
- 2:39Speaker 1: Do you have some kind of an eta I'm done
- 2:41Speaker 1: being able to fix this or what totally? Yeah, I
- 2:43Speaker 1: would say like probably in the next few um like
- 2:46Speaker 1: weeks or months hopefully. No, no, no, no, no, no.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I mean so basically, this is a call just to
- 2:52Speaker 1: tell me that this isn't gonna happen. Am I Is
- 2:54Speaker 1: that correct? No, you're not correct, because I'm actually calling
- 2:58Speaker 1: wondering there's a chance that you could fix it? You
- 3:02Speaker 1: mean I could fix it. I'm not gonna help because
- 3:05Speaker 1: I wouldn't even know the first thing about fixing the pothole.
- 3:08Speaker 1: I actually have a few YouTube links that I found,
- 3:10Speaker 1: and I can send you some tools and supplies. I'm
- 3:13Speaker 1: sure you can get it done quit quicker than the
- 3:16Speaker 1: city will. I think you need to look at how
- 3:18Speaker 1: you were hired, because this is really your your freaking job, dude.
- 3:21Speaker 1: It's not my responsibility. Yeah, yeah, I mean what I
- 3:24Speaker 1: pay taxes for sure, but look, it's kind of complicated.
- 3:29Speaker 1: It's not complicing. You're still in a hole. Well kind
- 3:32Speaker 1: of have an issue though. I was recently diagnosed with
- 3:35Speaker 1: the fear of holes. Oh my god, I'm just I'm paranoid.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I freeze up, I get antsy. And this sounds like
- 3:43Speaker 1: a really big pothole, and so that that's even more scary.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Let me let me Okay, I don't thin get this straight.
- 3:49Speaker 1: I just so I hear the words coming out of
- 3:52Speaker 1: my mouth. Okay, the guy who is hired to fix
- 3:55Speaker 1: potholes isn't afraid of holes. Well, that is kind of silly.
- 3:59Speaker 1: It's kind of ironic. I guess when you say it
- 4:02Speaker 1: like that I did, this is the most ridiculous thing
- 4:04Speaker 1: I've ever heard. Well, I mean, you've heard a lion
- 4:07Speaker 1: tamers being scared of lions, right, or like magicians being
- 4:10Speaker 1: afraid of cards. I feel like you're just making the
- 4:13Speaker 1: sup so you don't have to do anything work. That's
- 4:15Speaker 1: what it sounds like to me. Oh work, forgot to
- 4:19Speaker 1: tell you. Um, that's another thing I was diagnosed with.
- 4:22Speaker 1: And you're not gonna believe what. I'm not gonna believe that.
- 4:24Speaker 1: You're right. I'm scared of work, So you don't even
- 4:25Speaker 1: I don't even Yeah, it's a personal fear of work
- 4:28Speaker 1: or manual labor either or yea. So again I apologize,
- 4:33Speaker 1: but if you could just find it in your heart
- 4:35Speaker 1: to be kind and help here, I'm not gonna help.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I'm not gonna help. If you're not gonna do it,
- 4:40Speaker 1: I'm gonna call your boss and you're gonna get fired,
- 4:42Speaker 1: all right, I mean that's bottom all. Please don't do that. Yeah, no,
- 4:45Speaker 1: that sounds like I really need this job. Just give
- 4:48Speaker 1: me your name, because you said it the start that
- 4:50Speaker 1: I would tell you. But I'm also afraid of name. Yeah.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Obviously you think this is really funny, but it's just not.
- 4:59Speaker 1: I mean, it is kind of funny because you absolutely
- 5:01Speaker 1: fell for every single joke that I've said so far,
- 5:03Speaker 1: and you still think this is a real phone call.
- 5:05Speaker 1: So even though I'm scared of phones, this it's a
