  Speaker 1: baby shower on an Okay, well, this is probably where
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have to step in as HR and
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: say absolutely not. What would the reasoning for that be?
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Why why can't we have a baby shower? Well? Have
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: you taken a moment to think of others? When you
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: were planning this, think of others when planning a baby shower. Yea,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: the entire department is going to be there. No, that's
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: not what I'm talking about. I'm not talking about the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: people that are invited in the people that aren't invited.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the people who will be hurt the
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: most by your party, and that's the single men in
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: the office. Well, they can't be pregnant and they can't
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: experience the joy of motherhood. I think a better way
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: to say it is by you having this party, you're
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: going to be baby shaming those men something shaming, Yes,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: baby shaming right. Oh what about the married mail because
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: they can't have babies in it? Well, really, I guess
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: that's a good point. You having a baby shower. Every
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: man in the company is going to have to sit
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: there and realize that they can't get pregnant, and it's
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: going to hurt a lot of men. I need to
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: back up for a minute. I need to make sure
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I'm understanding this, because this is the stupidest thing I've
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: ever heard. You're calling me that we can't have a
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: baby shower here because men are going to get hurt
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: that they can't have a baby that they can't be pregnant.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: It's called baby shaming. It's called stupid, is what it is.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I agree. Baby shaming is stupid. Baby shaming is stupid,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and it shouldn't happen, especially not in this workplace. I
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: don't have time to put up with a baby shaming
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: when wal we're doing is trying to have a nice
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: little baby shower, and Nicole is nice enough to step
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: up give me a baby shower. So is that really?
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Is that really what it's about. It's about celebrating you
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: being pregnant and not trying to throw it in every
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: man's face here that they can't get pregnant. Because it
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: doesn't sound like it's wrong with you, No, not in anybody.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I think I'm getting what you're saying. What is wrong
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: with me because my body won't let me harbor a
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: baby for nine months? What is wrong with me is
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: that I wasn't born with the same reproductive organs as you,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: And I guess if that makes me a worse person
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: than so be it. But I don't need you to
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: mind you. But you is that your little brain apparently
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: can't wrap around Okay, great, Okay, I get it. What's
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: wrong with me? Is I have a tiny brain because
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I can't get pregnant. Oh yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I thought so. Well, listen, the point is that you
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: have to cancel your babyshower before he gets out of control. No,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing it. I will not, And if I
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: need to have my director talk to the HR director
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: about it, that's fine. I have never seen anything like
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: this in any human resources manual ever. Well, it should
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: be in every human resources manual. And how many Human
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: resources manuals are you reading? Well, then in HR and
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I don't even read that many. Well, then maybe you
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: need to have someone come and show you how to
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: do your job. Okay, I think no case, it's actually
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: part of your job to be kept abreast of current
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, oh yeah, there it is again. There it is, again,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: slamming me because I don't have breasts that could feed
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: a baby. I understand all of your subtle digs at me,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: because I'll have you know, I have supple nipples for
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: a male, and no, they will never experience the joy
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of nutrition coming out of them, but they are just
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: as supple as yours. I do not understand where this
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: is coming fun. You're talking about your breath. You even
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: said supple nipples. Nip you baby shamy and you say
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: you are from HR and you talk about supple nipples, yes,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and that is a travisy. Well, that's the thing, is
• 4:37

• 4:39
  Speaker 1: prank phone call. Then here, I don't care if you
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: call it that or not. This is not how an
• 4:45
