Latest / Stuff Mom Never Told You / Monday Mini: What You're Worth
Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha, and welcome to Stephanoe
- 0:08Speaker 1: never told your production of I Heart Radio. So Samantha,
- 0:20Speaker 1: what has been your general experience of negotiating contracts and
- 0:28Speaker 1: asking for for what you think you're worth. I have
- 0:33Speaker 1: a couple of kind of experiences because for the longest
- 0:35Speaker 1: time I worked at government, and then I went to
- 0:37Speaker 1: work as a nanny, and then I came back to government,
- 0:41Speaker 1: and then I worked as a bartender and then now
- 0:44Speaker 1: here here meaning I Heart. But when I started with
- 0:47Speaker 1: the government, there was no negotiating Like in any government,
- 0:51Speaker 1: they are the very like stipulation of getting the bottom
- 0:54Speaker 1: pay whatever. It's like, you're worth this to this, or
- 0:57Speaker 1: this job is worth this, to this you was gonna
- 0:59Speaker 1: you were in the base pay no matter what. My
- 1:02Speaker 1: first job and I talked about this. I think my
- 1:03Speaker 1: first job, I was investigating child abuse and I was
- 1:07Speaker 1: getting paid twenty seven thousand, and that's including benefits and
- 1:11Speaker 1: all of that, of course, but that still comes out
- 1:13Speaker 1: of your check. It's not like they just give you
- 1:15Speaker 1: these benefits. And yes, I think if you're not in
- 1:18Speaker 1: the US and you don't already know your insurance, your
- 1:22Speaker 1: health insurance is based on your job and whether or
- 1:24Speaker 1: not you have a job, which apparently, even though we're
- 1:27Speaker 1: used to it as Americans because that's what we know,
- 1:28Speaker 1: we're like, of course, that's not a thing outside of here.
- 1:32Speaker 1: They're like, people are like what because you know, they
- 1:35Speaker 1: value their health outside of whether or not they have
- 1:38Speaker 1: a good enough job to get coverage or whatever. Because yeah,
- 1:42Speaker 1: if you have minimum wage, you don't get coverage. If
- 1:45Speaker 1: you work minimum wage jobs and that aren't over a
- 1:48Speaker 1: certain amount of hours, you are not guaranteed coverage. And yes,
- 1:51Speaker 1: there's many a businesses that make sure you work thirty
- 1:54Speaker 1: eight hours or thirty nine hours instead of the forty
- 1:58Speaker 1: hours of which makes you a full time so that
- 2:00Speaker 1: you can't get these benefits. But yeah, so going into that,
- 2:03Speaker 1: didn't think that was an option. Went into being a nanny,
- 2:08Speaker 1: which paid a lot more, and I had gotten bonuses
- 2:11Speaker 1: and I was promised yearly raises. I never got him.
- 2:15Speaker 1: And then finally I had to have a talk, and
- 2:17Speaker 1: I had to continue and persistently ask for a meeting
- 2:21Speaker 1: to have my talk about a race, and I got
- 2:23Speaker 1: I finally got one. It was minimal, but the fact
- 2:25Speaker 1: that I did it, I was very proud of myself
- 2:26Speaker 1: because I'm not good at confrontation. Despite the fact that
- 2:29Speaker 1: I sound very strong and sound like I would be,
- 2:32Speaker 1: I'm not. I'll wait till I had the very last minute.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Then I'm like, okay, okay, okay, I can do this.
- 2:36Speaker 1: I can do this, and I finally did it, go
- 2:39Speaker 1: back going back to working for the government again. Of course,
- 2:43Speaker 1: that's not a thing I tried to negotiate. They don't
- 2:45Speaker 1: allow it. As in fact, it took me to get
- 2:48Speaker 1: to nine years and two promotions to be even able
- 2:51Speaker 1: to ask why why isn't this a thing, especially because
- 2:54Speaker 1: the government stopped giving races cost of living races. So
- 2:58Speaker 1: by the end I had gotten three promotions and I
- 3:00Speaker 1: was getting paid thirty six thousand. See, yeah, that's not
- 3:04Speaker 1: a lot for the amount of jobs I was doing, um,
- 3:07Speaker 1: which ended up me going to work at a bar.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Of course, to thirteen. The rest is tips, and don't
- 3:13Speaker 1: get me wrong, I got good tips for a while,
- 3:15Speaker 1: so it was great. But yes, the US is also
- 3:18Speaker 1: based on the tips system, and we already know that's
- 3:21Speaker 1: a whole other conversation that we could have and how
- 3:24Speaker 1: it's those types of services are dominated by women typically,
- 3:28Speaker 1: But okay, and then it came to my heart. I
- 3:32Speaker 1: was very confused by I heard, because I will say
- 3:36Speaker 1: I did learn from the previous host you are a
- 3:39Speaker 1: great help um and trying to figure out what to
- 3:41Speaker 1: navigate this. So my experience, very long windedly, has been unusual.
- 3:48Speaker 1: It was more about me asking questions, what about you? Yeah. So,
- 3:56Speaker 1: I feel like through my lifetime I have in various factors,
- 4:03Speaker 1: in various ways, I've absorbed this messaging that I really
- 4:07Speaker 1: have to fight to get paid. More like, if I
- 4:11Speaker 1: don't fight, I'm not going to get paid. The They're
- 4:15Speaker 1: going to pay me the minimum amount, which is true
- 4:17Speaker 1: in one sense, but also frustrating in the other in
- 4:20Speaker 1: terms of that's kind of another job You're placing on
- 4:25Speaker 1: someone to explain why I'm worth paying me this much.
- 4:29Speaker 1: I'm worth it right, which, as we know, with women
- 4:32Speaker 1: and other marginalized folks, there are a lot of things
- 4:36Speaker 1: that make that trickier to do. UM. But I always
- 4:42Speaker 1: had it in the back of my head that I'm
- 4:44Speaker 1: gonna have to negotiate for paid because they're going to
- 4:48Speaker 1: be paying me less. Um. So I too. I've been
- 4:54Speaker 1: with this company since twenty eleven, but it's been through
- 4:57Speaker 1: like seven different owners. So with that in mind for
- 5:05Speaker 1: a while, I was they were definitely doing something those
- 5:09Speaker 1: I think was illegal um in my early days where
- 5:14Speaker 1: they would hire me for a year, but then I
- 5:18Speaker 1: had to take two months off and that was so
- 5:19Speaker 1: they didn't benefits. Yeah, so that you would be called
- 5:24Speaker 1: part time and in the weirdest way, like that's terrible.
- 5:28Speaker 1: I don't approve of it, but it was kind of
- 5:31Speaker 1: nice at those two I do not approve of it.
- 5:36Speaker 1: That's very wrong, but it was kind of nice to
- 5:38Speaker 1: be like, well, oh, I'm just gonna go on a
- 5:41Speaker 1: road trip for two months. Although I mean that was very,
- 5:44Speaker 1: very very trusting of me to assume the job would
- 5:46Speaker 1: be there when I got back, and I was not
- 5:48Speaker 1: sure that it would be, but it was. I have
- 5:52Speaker 1: probably negotiated four times now with my contract, and it
- 5:58Speaker 1: is it's such a arustrating thing because I feel, on
- 6:03Speaker 1: the one hand, like I want to be if we've
- 6:07Speaker 1: read so many articles right like women women go in
- 6:10Speaker 1: there and and do this and do this, and so
- 6:12Speaker 1: I feel like I have to do that. But at
- 6:14Speaker 1: the same time, it makes me mad that I have
- 6:16Speaker 1: to keep all that in mind, as like they basically
- 6:20Speaker 1: are saying like men just get that, but women have
- 6:22Speaker 1: to prove that. So that frustrates me and it gets
- 6:26Speaker 1: I get in my head about it. And then it's
- 6:29Speaker 1: unfortunately in a lot of in the US and a
- 6:32Speaker 1: lot of fields in the US, there's not a transparency
- 6:35Speaker 1: when it comes to to pay. And I feel like
- 6:40Speaker 1: we've seen a lot of articles and research that are
- 6:43Speaker 1: saying basically like women when they think they're asking for
- 6:49Speaker 1: a lot, they're really kind of in the mid to
- 6:52Speaker 1: lower tier of what people are getting paid, and it's
- 6:57Speaker 1: hard to know the truth of that. UM. And I
- 7:00Speaker 1: will say, and our friends in this office were very
- 7:02Speaker 1: open in my experience, UM, we're pretty open about this
- 7:06Speaker 1: is how much I make, uh, and this is how
- 7:09Speaker 1: I kind of got to this point. But it's hard.
- 7:14Speaker 1: There's a guilt factor, and you and I were talking
- 7:16Speaker 1: about this, Um, there's a guilt factor of kind of
- 7:19Speaker 1: like an impostor level syndrome thing, but also just feeling
- 7:24Speaker 1: like it's hard to argue you're worth this amount of
- 7:29Speaker 1: money when you're not sure where the baseline is, and
- 7:33Speaker 1: also you are struggling with maybe some self esteem issues
- 7:37Speaker 1: or they have this imposter syndrome where you're like, what
- 7:40Speaker 1: if this is the thing that they say, no, you're
- 7:43Speaker 1: not worth that amount of money. Now devastating that could
- 7:47Speaker 1: be in many in many aspects. When we talked about
- 8:03Speaker 1: our contract we were coming back, there was a specific
- 8:07Speaker 1: situation in which, you know, we were told, hey, can
- 8:10Speaker 1: you do this for us? And in our minds we're like, oh, yeah, sure, sure,
- 8:14Speaker 1: sure sure Wait what wait? No, that this doesn't wait,
- 8:19Speaker 1: this doesn't make sense because you're asking us to do something,
- 8:22Speaker 1: gaslighting us to make us say that's for us. But
- 8:25Speaker 1: then when we we sit here and think about it, like, wait,
- 8:28Speaker 1: that's more work for us? What And having that moment
- 8:34Speaker 1: of realizing we felt guilty and almost said yes to
- 8:40Speaker 1: some situations, to many situations actually because we just you know,
- 8:43Speaker 1: of course, yeah, absolutely absolutely will help, will help, not
- 8:46Speaker 1: realizing that this is more work on us without paying
- 8:52Speaker 1: us and making us think that if we don't do it,
- 8:56Speaker 1: we're letting other people down. Yes. Yes, And I think
- 9:01Speaker 1: that's a big key to this point when we are
- 9:05Speaker 1: talking about women specifically or marginalized people specifically, that we
- 9:13Speaker 1: I will speak for you, Samantha, but I really enjoy
- 9:15Speaker 1: this job. I love it. There's ups and downs, for sure,
- 9:18Speaker 1: but in general, like I really love it, and I
- 9:21Speaker 1: feel there's so many instances of the capitalist system kind
- 9:28Speaker 1: of weaponizing that of like, you like your job, right,
- 9:31Speaker 1: you want to do a good job, right, you can
- 9:34Speaker 1: be easily replaced, you know that, right, Um that puts
- 9:38Speaker 1: you in this situation where you feel like you have
- 9:39Speaker 1: to say yes to these things. Um that too in
- 9:42Speaker 1: order to succeed. You basically are not going to get
- 9:47Speaker 1: paid what you're worth and you just half that's just
- 9:51Speaker 1: the way it is. You have to go on without
- 9:53Speaker 1: proper compensation. And also with women, I feel like there's
- 9:57Speaker 1: a level of weaponizing empathy because we do feel like
- 10:01Speaker 1: we're letting other people down. It's not just the financial aspect,
- 10:05Speaker 1: which is important. I'm not damn playing that at all,
- 10:07Speaker 1: but like there is the there's another person on on
- 10:11Speaker 1: the other side of this, and I don't want to
- 10:15Speaker 1: let you down. At the same time, you're a huge company,
- 10:18Speaker 1: like pay for this right, Well, I mean there's kind
- 10:21Speaker 1: of a couple of things to that because the things
- 10:23Speaker 1: that we are taught in this country. So again I'm
- 10:27Speaker 1: going to keep this in the U S. Because I
- 10:29Speaker 1: know other countries have a little better setup or a
- 10:32Speaker 1: completely different setup either way, where ay, we're told, yes,
- 10:37Speaker 1: you should find a job that you love, so it's
- 10:39Speaker 1: not worked to you. You're getting paid for something you love, right,
- 10:42Speaker 1: so that means I can pay you less hopefully because
- 10:46Speaker 1: you love this, this is what you're passionate about. And
- 10:48Speaker 1: it's kind of this weird narrative that we've been fed
- 10:50Speaker 1: so long that we've accepted this, like I love my job, Yes,
- 10:54Speaker 1: I would do this without pay almost like that kind
- 10:56Speaker 1: of level, like wait, why should we have to even
- 10:59Speaker 1: have that conversation. Can't we be paid for doing something
- 11:02Speaker 1: that I do love but making you money? Right? Okay?
- 11:06Speaker 1: And then this other that of if you don't do
- 11:09Speaker 1: your part, and I think this goes again more for women.
- 11:13Speaker 1: If you don't do your part, you're going to push
- 11:15Speaker 1: that onto someone else, so this is your fault. So
- 11:18Speaker 1: I'm thinking specifically with my government job, and even with
- 11:20Speaker 1: this job, I know you and I have talked about this,
- 11:22Speaker 1: we don't really take vacations because if we're needed will answer.
- 11:26Speaker 1: But in my government job, I absolutely never took a
- 11:30Speaker 1: vacation longer than four days, and within those four days
- 11:32Speaker 1: would be weekends, because no one could do what I
- 11:36Speaker 1: do without taking on a whole new caseload and they
- 11:39Speaker 1: specifically do that to you so that you don't leave.
- 11:43Speaker 1: So to be fair, I did eventually get paid out
- 11:45Speaker 1: for my vacation time, not when I was in defects
- 11:48Speaker 1: and I worked overtime and they did they contested my
- 11:50Speaker 1: overtime and did not pay me out because that's what
- 11:52Speaker 1: they do. That is that like implication in that conversation
- 11:56Speaker 1: that if you don't do this, it's not the government
- 11:59Speaker 1: who suffered, it's your co workers. So are you going
- 12:02Speaker 1: to do that to someone else? To you? And I
- 12:03Speaker 1: think it would be kind of similar for us because
- 12:06Speaker 1: we are our individual host but our our producer. Wonderful question.
- 12:10Speaker 1: That would be scrambling if we're like BAH and didn't
- 12:13Speaker 1: have a plan for this, And of course there's one
- 12:15Speaker 1: thing to be responsible, but like if we probably had
- 12:18Speaker 1: to leave for an emergency, I will be giving you
- 12:21Speaker 1: all this work that you would have to do to
- 12:23Speaker 1: scramble around without me, and I would have an immense
- 12:26Speaker 1: amount of guilt. But the corporation has given notions, right,
- 12:31Speaker 1: they just want their money exactly exactly, And I know
- 12:35Speaker 1: it's a it's a big point of conversation, as it
- 12:38Speaker 1: should be right now and always. But like companies kind
- 12:41Speaker 1: of using that whole idea of you know, we're family
- 12:44Speaker 1: and we're family right right, and and I like, I
- 12:48Speaker 1: love my coworkers, but there you do have to draw
- 12:51Speaker 1: the line because many of my co workers are co workers,
- 12:53Speaker 1: are friends, like, but there's a line between work that
- 12:59Speaker 1: a company is making money off of and kind of
- 13:02Speaker 1: using that line to guilt you into working for free,
- 13:06Speaker 1: essentially feeling miserable or taking on this extra load or
- 13:09Speaker 1: this extra guilt, which I do think a lot of
- 13:16Speaker 1: women do. And when I think about like, I'm just
- 13:18Speaker 1: thinking about my friends and hearing my women friends and
- 13:22Speaker 1: hearing their experiences with their jobs and how they're just
- 13:24Speaker 1: like stressed to make sure somebody's vacation is perfect, which
- 13:26Speaker 1: is really sweet, but it's also you're taking on this
- 13:31Speaker 1: extra staff, you're not getting paid for it. And I
- 13:34Speaker 1: think the conversation too is once again, who is benefiting
- 13:38Speaker 1: in all of this and who is being hurt um
- 13:41Speaker 1: And when it comes down to it, those who are
- 13:44Speaker 1: ahead and have found a way to give all of
- 13:50Speaker 1: those responsibilities to those who don't have as large voices
- 13:55Speaker 1: don't really care, They don't really see and no matter what,
- 14:00Speaker 1: no matter what we may hear when it comes to
- 14:03Speaker 1: larger corporations, when it comes to being valued, there is
- 14:07Speaker 1: an agenda. There's an agenda, and we have to be
- 14:10Speaker 1: careful of that. But again, coming to for me specifically,
- 14:15Speaker 1: I came from a government job that paid one third
- 14:17Speaker 1: of what I'm getting paid now, and I am grateful.
- 14:20Speaker 1: But because of that mentality, I'm being told I should
- 14:24Speaker 1: be grateful and not actually get paid instead of not realizing, Hey,
- 14:28Speaker 1: I wasn't being patient from my previous job. And it
- 14:30Speaker 1: absolutely is wrong. And that is a corrupt system because
- 14:33Speaker 1: that's based on government. Because I was a government worker,
- 14:35Speaker 1: and I spell the same way about teachers anyway. But
- 14:40Speaker 1: coming into this, uh, non government work, into a corporate
- 14:44Speaker 1: world which makes billions of dollars, likes to talk about
- 14:48Speaker 1: how much money they make, and I guess that's supposed
- 14:50Speaker 1: to be a comforting note. But then you start looking
- 14:52Speaker 1: at your own job, listenings what you take on, and
- 14:56Speaker 1: then see the pay, you start having questions. And I
- 15:00Speaker 1: came in with a see, isn't this a better pay
- 15:03Speaker 1: than what you were getting? You should be great. I mean,
- 15:06Speaker 1: at one point in time, I kind of was told
- 15:08Speaker 1: that see one, You're you're having so much better mental health,
- 15:12Speaker 1: and like, you know what, actually that's not true, because
- 15:14Speaker 1: my mental health is my mental health, and this causes
- 15:17Speaker 1: me just as much anxiety in a new way because
- 15:26Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, sure it's different, but it's still there. No,
- 15:29Speaker 1: I totally hear you. Yeah, And I know like before
- 15:33Speaker 1: when you and I were first talking about like you
- 15:36Speaker 1: coming on, we had a cheese night and as we
- 15:42Speaker 1: love to do, and I said, like, I felt so
- 15:45Speaker 1: much guilt that I got paid more than my dad did.
- 15:49Speaker 1: Um and he'd gone to thirteen years of college to
- 15:53Speaker 1: be a lawyer, and then I professor. And I think
- 15:58Speaker 1: like there's a differ print conversation between we are not
- 16:02Speaker 1: paying people what they're worth, and especially like jobs dominated
- 16:07Speaker 1: by women, like teachers, they should they should get paid
- 16:11Speaker 1: so much, and the kind of comparison trap that you
- 16:16Speaker 1: get into where you think I'm not worth that because
- 16:21Speaker 1: this person should be worth more, Like we aren't in
- 16:23Speaker 1: control of those systems. If I had my way, then yeah,
- 16:26Speaker 1: teachers are getting way more than me. Right, And again,
- 16:43Speaker 1: this is kind of the same as a conversation that
- 16:45Speaker 1: we have when we talk about marginalized communities going after
- 16:48Speaker 1: each other instead of seeing the higher problem, the bigger problem.
- 16:51Speaker 1: They do the same things. Like so many people's arguments
- 16:53Speaker 1: about forgiving student loans, so so many people's arguments about
- 16:57Speaker 1: minimum wage being raised is that they did not earn it,
- 17:00Speaker 1: So why should I care? And why should they get it?
- 17:03Speaker 1: If I didn't get it? Like there's this level of
- 17:05Speaker 1: like saying this is unfair for me, I didn't get it,
- 17:08Speaker 1: so but because the system has rigged it that that's
- 17:11Speaker 1: what you see, and that's what they want you to
- 17:13Speaker 1: blame instead of talking about the system in itself. And
- 17:17Speaker 1: I know I'm about to go onto a rant about
- 17:19Speaker 1: Catechism and all of these like narratives that are so
- 17:22Speaker 1: wrong in which they want to continue to make sure
- 17:26Speaker 1: that there is a large gap between wealth and blue collar.
- 17:30Speaker 1: Like there's just this giant narrative that people still keep
- 17:34Speaker 1: feeding into because it becomes I didn't get that, why
- 17:37Speaker 1: should they? Right? Which if you're that person, you need
- 17:43Speaker 1: to look at yourself, be truly truly see how would
- 17:48Speaker 1: have been beneficial and maybe it would be better for
- 17:51Speaker 1: your kids along then even though you may not have
- 17:54Speaker 1: gotten it, your kids, wouldn't it be so much better.
- 17:57Speaker 1: I hope you love your kids enough if making you
- 18:00Speaker 1: or your knees or you know, the younger communities, but
- 18:03Speaker 1: you want them to have the better end. You want
- 18:06Speaker 1: them to have the things that you wish you had.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Like those are the conversations that I really think it's
- 18:11Speaker 1: the that's being left behind because empathy is a rare
- 18:16Speaker 1: even though everybody wants to say their impacts and I'm
- 18:18Speaker 1: not even go there be the system has worked so
- 18:21Speaker 1: well in brainwashing, oh my god, I swear to God,
- 18:25Speaker 1: I'm not talking about conspiracies, but in brainwashing so many
- 18:28Speaker 1: of us into finding somewhere someone else to blame outside
- 18:32Speaker 1: of seeing the bigger picture. I agree, And I think
- 18:35Speaker 1: on top of that, it's it's really everybody, but especially
- 18:39Speaker 1: when it comes to marginalized folks and women. It's been
- 18:42Speaker 1: so the system has been so effective at turning us
- 18:48Speaker 1: all into victim blamers and all of us saying I'm
- 18:52Speaker 1: not worth that or because right now the space is
- 18:58Speaker 1: so small that we allow all like we were always
- 19:01Speaker 1: shrinking and always trying to take up as a little
- 19:03Speaker 1: space as possible, that in the back of your head,
- 19:06Speaker 1: you're just yeah, that kind of a grateful mentality, like
- 19:09Speaker 1: they could replace me in a heartbeat and it would
- 19:11Speaker 1: be easy. And it's very, very damaging. And I think
- 19:17Speaker 1: in these those articles that are like women, here's how
- 19:22Speaker 1: you negotiate, Like, I get it that they annoy me
- 19:25Speaker 1: so much. Right, well, and let's be honest. First of all,
- 19:30Speaker 1: they are not very helpful because they're not they're too generic.
- 19:33Speaker 1: They're just starting point. I'm sure some of them are
- 19:36Speaker 1: company they act differently. There's some amazing companies that you
- 19:40Speaker 1: should look towards and it would hopefully set up some standards.
- 19:44Speaker 1: But for me, like coming into a whole different world,
- 19:47Speaker 1: I had to ask a lot of questions. And I'm
- 19:49Speaker 1: a nosy person, so I was willing. I started asking
- 19:52Speaker 1: everyone to the point they're like, what what's happening? Are
- 19:55Speaker 1: you trying to trap me? Like no, I just I
- 19:58Speaker 1: don't know this business and I want to understand what
- 20:01Speaker 1: this is. Yeah, and that's a really good point. I
- 20:03Speaker 1: think that's a good point to end on. As frustrating
- 20:06Speaker 1: as it is, as much as it shouldn't be this way,
- 20:09Speaker 1: I do find I take heart. And when I took
- 20:13Speaker 1: this job, the past host Kristin Caroline gave me so
- 20:18Speaker 1: much like when you negotiate, asked for this, make sure
- 20:21Speaker 1: they do that. Like they were very open, and if
- 20:24Speaker 1: they hadn't been, I would have probably not even known
- 20:28Speaker 1: to ask. And I love that I'm seeing that happen
- 20:31Speaker 1: where the women and our friend group and our support
- 20:35Speaker 1: group and our colleagues are being very like, look, I
- 20:38Speaker 1: had to fight for this, but I think it's important
- 20:40Speaker 1: you should definitely ask for this kind of finding that camaraderie. Right, Yeah,
- 20:45Speaker 1: I agree with you. Don't be afraid to ask, don't
- 20:49Speaker 1: be afraid to talk. If someone tells you something is
- 20:51Speaker 1: illegal and sound sketchy, go looking up for yourself because
- 20:54Speaker 1: it probably is. Yes, Yes, I remember, like somebody told
- 20:59Speaker 1: me once it was illegal to say how much you
- 21:03Speaker 1: made and I was asking around about it and they're like, no,
- 21:06Speaker 1: it's not That would be terrible and like a mafia
- 21:10Speaker 1: world we're living in. So yeah, definitely ask, definitely asks,
- 21:16Speaker 1: and hopefully I think we can return to this. Maybe
- 21:21Speaker 1: I would love to look into now in our time
- 21:24Speaker 1: of like pandemic and COVID in the Great Resignation, how
- 21:28Speaker 1: negotiating has changed and how people have kind of their
- 21:32Speaker 1: mindset has changed around it. So sure we'll come back
- 21:36Speaker 1: to that, but in the meantime, listeners, if you would
