- 0:17Speaker 1: about our office is they charge us for snacks and
- 0:20Speaker 1: drinks in the break room. Oh yeah, yeah, but I
- 0:23Speaker 1: mean we get free coffee. It's not like we're working
- 0:25Speaker 1: for a tech company. Yeah, but I just feel bad
- 0:28Speaker 1: paying for it with Brooks credit card all the time.
- 0:32Speaker 1: It makes me feel guilty. Chocolate muffins you have in
- 0:36Speaker 1: one day at least? Yeah, I don't know how many
- 0:40Speaker 1: I have. That's the point. That's why I feel bad
- 0:42Speaker 1: about it. But I guess it could be worse. Yeah.
- 0:45Speaker 1: I mean not our company, but some company could call
- 0:48Speaker 1: an unsuspecting worker and tell them everything in the office
- 0:51Speaker 1: that he's going to be using will take money out
- 0:53Speaker 1: of his pocket. It gets ridiculous real quick. When we
- 0:58Speaker 1: do your phone tap right now. Another on the twenties, Hello, Patrick, Yeah,
- 1:08Speaker 1: this is he Hi, good morning, This is Helen. A
- 1:10Speaker 1: handbasket from corporate. Hr, how are you doing today? Fine?
- 1:16Speaker 1: How can I help you? Well, I just wanted to
- 1:18Speaker 1: make sure. I mean, we have a couple of people
- 1:20Speaker 1: with similar names. You're the Patrick on the sales side, right.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Your direct supervisor is Tanya. Yeah that's right. Okay, great,
- 1:27Speaker 1: and you're like her second in command? Am I correct? Yeah?
- 1:32Speaker 1: I mean I guess I take over for Tanya when
- 1:34Speaker 1: she's outsick or on vacation or whatever. Okay, well Tanya
- 1:38Speaker 1: has been let go. What Yeah? Are you serious? You
- 1:44Speaker 1: know we loved her, but as you know, with the economy,
- 1:47Speaker 1: oh my god, business right now is on we'll say
- 1:51Speaker 1: shaky ground financially at best. Wow. I didn't realize that
- 1:58Speaker 1: the company was struggle that much. Yeah, so we're going
- 2:02Speaker 1: to need you to step up and tell everyone else
- 2:05Speaker 1: about the upcoming changes in the workplace. What changes are
- 2:10Speaker 1: we talking about? Well, like I said, we have to
- 2:12Speaker 1: cut back and do everything we can to help the
- 2:15Speaker 1: bottom line. So starting Monday, there will be locks placed
- 2:18Speaker 1: on all bathroom stalls and those will only be able
- 2:21Speaker 1: to be accessed with a credit card. Locks on the
- 2:25Speaker 1: bathroom stall. Yeah, I know you're laughing, but we think
- 2:30Speaker 1: it's only fair that employees share in the cost of building,
- 2:33Speaker 1: upkeep and maintenance. That seems really strange. A lot of
- 2:40Speaker 1: companies are leaning this way. We feel like we're frontrunners
- 2:43Speaker 1: on it. And don't worry. It's not going to be
- 2:45Speaker 1: a lot. It's a dollar ninety nine for the first
- 2:47Speaker 1: minute and then fifty cents for every minute after. You're
- 2:51Speaker 1: going to charge people to use the bathroom. Yeah, and
- 2:54Speaker 1: we are really excited about it because we think that
- 2:57Speaker 1: it will help with efficiency as well, make people get
- 3:00Speaker 1: back to their desks a lot quicker instead of dilly
- 3:03Speaker 1: dallying and the toilets. You're taking money away from us,
- 3:08Speaker 1: the employees. Yeah. Well, we started the conversation talking about
- 3:12Speaker 1: how Tanya has been let go. Now you're first in command.
- 3:16Speaker 1: That's interesting, isn't it. Are you threatening me? No, I'm
- 3:22Speaker 1: just saying if I were in your position, I would
- 3:24Speaker 1: be pretty thankful that the company is trying to come
- 3:27Speaker 1: up with other ways to save money. I really don't
- 3:31Speaker 1: know what to say right now. I don't want you
- 3:33Speaker 1: to say anything. Yeah, just follow orders and tell your
- 3:37Speaker 1: team starting Monday to bring in copy paper. We're supposed
- 3:42Speaker 1: to bring in from where, if anywhere, you can find it.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Your house. You want us to supply paper for the company,
- 3:51Speaker 1: just for the printers. Yeah, but don't worry. We're going
- 3:54Speaker 1: to cover Saturday and Sundays. We don't even work those days.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Oh well, that will make your scheduling a little bit
- 4:00Speaker 1: easier than you don't have to do those two days.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Come on, you've got to be kidding me. You know
- 4:05Speaker 1: you should feel lucky. We were discussing a desk rental fee,
- 4:09Speaker 1: but that won't go into effect until next fall. Okay, yeah,
- 4:13Speaker 1: I feel so lucky. Do I detect sarcasm? Because, yeah,
- 4:18Speaker 1: this is ridiculous. Okay, that is not the winning attitude
- 4:22Speaker 1: we need as a company. Well, clearly the company isn't winning.
- 4:26Speaker 1: We can be winners if all the employees kind of
- 4:29Speaker 1: come together as a team and make sure they're giving
- 4:31Speaker 1: their fair share. Unbelievable. What are you going to do next?
- 4:35Speaker 1: Charges for coffee? No, of course not. We're not going
- 4:38Speaker 1: to have coffee in the break room anymore. That's going
- 4:41Speaker 1: away starting Monday. Oh my god, this is ridiculous. I
- 4:45Speaker 1: really think a lot of people are going to leave
- 4:47Speaker 1: when they hear about these changes. I'm just gonna say
- 4:50Speaker 1: that I think you really need to think about this
- 4:52Speaker 1: because your job depends on it. Now, before I get
- 4:55Speaker 1: off the phone, I am going to need your credit
- 4:57Speaker 1: card number. So what, Well, this call hasn't been free.
- 5:01Speaker 1: You're on a company phone and my time is valuable.
- 5:05Speaker 1: It was unbelievable. No, it really is unbelievable because it's
- 5:09Speaker 1: a prank phone call. You fell for it. That's the
- 5:12Speaker 1: most unbelievable part. Yeah, this is actually Broke from Brooke
- 5:17Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the Morning. We're doing a tap on you.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Tanya is still with a company. Nobody
- 5:25Speaker 1: got fired. Okay, oh my god. She's the one that
- 5:27Speaker 1: came up with this idea. I was wondering, like, how
- 5:33Speaker 1: do I swipe my card at a bathroom stall. I'm
- 5:36Speaker 1: just worried that I was giving my own company ideas.
- 5:38Speaker 1: So I hope my managers aren't listening, you know what,
- 5:41Speaker 1: because you did this. I hope they make those changes.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Wake up every morning, weekday morning on the twenties Broke
- 5:50Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the Morning
