- 0:26Speaker 1: on the building itself, okay, making sure the air conditionings
- 0:29Speaker 1: in order and that certain areas are organized. More handyman type.
- 0:35Speaker 1: So he's a little bit surprised when we call him

- 0:54Speaker 1: on the twenties, Hello, Hi, this is Marcy from Cress
- 1:00Speaker 1: Assisted Living Facility. Is this Derek? Yeah? This is Derek.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Hi Derek. I just got the news from Larry that
- 1:07Speaker 1: you're going to be joining our staff next week and
- 1:09Speaker 1: we're just excited to have you. Oh, Yeah, thank you.
- 1:13Speaker 1: I can't wait to get started. Great. So, yeah, you're
- 1:15Speaker 1: going to be helping out around the facility, you know,
- 1:18Speaker 1: maintain the building, making sure safety standards are met. You know.
- 1:23Speaker 1: I'm sure he went over all that with you. Yeah
- 1:25Speaker 1: he did. Yep, great. Okay. There is one thing we've
- 1:29Speaker 1: added to your list of responsibilities, and I don't think
- 1:33Speaker 1: Larry covered it. It's the weekly care calls. What's that?
- 1:39Speaker 1: So at the beginning of your shift, you're going to
- 1:42Speaker 1: be calling the family members of our seniors and giving
- 1:45Speaker 1: them a quick update while this song plays. Okay, I'm sorry. What. Yeah,
- 1:58Speaker 1: it's just a quick update and we need someone to
- 2:01Speaker 1: do it because the other staff members we asked to
- 2:03Speaker 1: do it end up becoming too emotional. I'm sorry. I
- 2:08Speaker 1: don't think I understand. So I'm playing music and giving
- 2:13Speaker 1: them updating. You know. It's just a simple thing like
- 2:17Speaker 1: Mabel eight or full lunch today and had a snack
- 2:20Speaker 1: bar and then she did calisthenics and she made it
- 2:26Speaker 1: to being go one time. Are you are you okay?
- 2:31Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's just this song you can get a
- 2:34Speaker 1: little emotional. Well maybe maybe don't play the music. Yeah,
- 2:41Speaker 1: we can't do that. It's a theme song to the facility,
- 2:45Speaker 1: so we're contractually obligated to play it. But it is
- 2:47Speaker 1: reflecting on the good old times. M okay, and I
- 2:52Speaker 1: So I have to do this. Yeah, and you know
- 2:55Speaker 1: I'm probably making this more difficult than it needs to be.
- 2:58Speaker 1: I can totally do this without letting it get to me,
- 3:02Speaker 1: can you? Because I'm not sure that I could. I
- 3:04Speaker 1: mean this it's making me sad right now. Oh, let
- 3:07Speaker 1: me try it again. Ninety two year old Edna Roberts
- 3:12Speaker 1: she put crackers in her soup at dinner and she
- 3:15Speaker 1: loved it. She ain't almost half of it took her
- 3:20Speaker 1: meta musil. I'm really sorry. I don't understand. Why why
- 3:26Speaker 1: do I have to do this? I mean, I'm just
- 3:27Speaker 1: gonna be supposed to be in charge of building facilities
- 3:30Speaker 1: and not making sad care calls the relative These are
- 3:36Speaker 1: happy updates. We have different music for the sad calls. Yeah,
- 3:43Speaker 1: that's better. Wait what is this, oh, Derek? People die,
- 3:49Speaker 1: you know, just a fact of life. So I go
- 3:51Speaker 1: out with a little zippity dude on. Okay, So wait,
- 3:55Speaker 1: you're telling me that part of my job is also
- 3:58Speaker 1: calling families to say that someone has passed on and
- 4:03Speaker 1: while I'm playing Zippity Judah. Yes makes your head bob,
- 4:07Speaker 1: doesn't it? Music makes it so much better? You know.
- 4:10Speaker 1: In fact, if you really turn it up loud, you
- 4:13Speaker 1: don't even hear the people crying on the other lives. Okay,
- 4:16Speaker 1: I'm really sorry. I can't do this. When I accepted
- 4:20Speaker 1: the position, I didn't know this was going to be
- 4:23Speaker 1: a part of the job. Okay, that's a surprise that
- 4:26Speaker 1: you're saying no to this. I mean, wasn't what we
- 4:29Speaker 1: talked about it. It wasn't what I agreed to for
- 4:31Speaker 1: the job at all. I guess time that I tell
- 4:34Speaker 1: you what's really happening. Then, Derek, why why are you
- 4:39Speaker 1: playing the music again? I'm really sorry to let you know,
- 4:44Speaker 1: but I'm really not calling from the assisted living facility.
- 4:49Speaker 1: I'm calling from a radio station. What we're doing? A
- 4:53Speaker 1: prank phone call on you? What you're doing? You're doing
- 4:58Speaker 1: a prank call. It's a break actually broke from Brooke
- 5:05Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the morning, right, So it's I definitely
- 5:09Speaker 1: don't have to do this. That's right, Derek. You don't
- 5:12Speaker 1: have to do this at all. I did not do
- 5:15Speaker 1: it with this upbeat music behind you. Yeah, your wife
- 5:17Speaker 1: Amy set you up excited about the new job, but
