- 2:15Speaker 2: it's not that not that simple. I mean, we had
- 2:17Speaker 2: a situation here in twenty eighteen where we had two
- 2:20Speaker 2: gyms and the chaos had created, I mean, payroll was insane.
- 2:25Speaker 2: Next thing, you know, we're getting rated by the FBI.
- 2:28Speaker 2: So there's just a policy here. We don't do that anymore.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Wow. I'm just I've never been asked to do something
- 2:35Speaker 3: like this. I've been in workplaces with other people that
- 2:37Speaker 3: had my name before, so well, yeah, that's a little lot.
- 2:40Speaker 3: But I mean I could go by my middle name,
- 2:42Speaker 3: Marcus if you want to do that.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we already have a guy named Marcus who
- 2:48Speaker 2: works here. Oh okay, do you have another one?
- 2:55Speaker 3: This is really weird, man.

- 2:59Speaker 2: names or maybe a dog's name, give a pet you
- 3:01Speaker 2: want to name yourself.
- 3:02Speaker 3: After, I mean, you pick my father's name. I guess
