  Speaker 2: my quote work wife. My actual wife has started making
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: comments now because this girl from my office she keeps
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: texting me from at like ten thirty eleven PM with
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: work emergencies, but that aren't really work emergencies. They're just
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: literally her complaining about her boyfriend. I've always played the
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: whole thing off is just being a supportive, supportive coworker,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: like friendly and everything, and just kind of played into
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: it without without worrying. But then today at the office lunch,
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: she literally reached over and wiped the crumb off my
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: face in front of everyone and all kinds of line exactly. Yeah,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: it felt so weird and so domestic, right, like the
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: whole table went silent. So now my boss is giving
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: me the look so like I'm pulling a fast one
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: or something like that, cheating on my wife, which is nonsense.

  Speaker 2: want to be I'll end up the mean guy who
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: ruined the office vibe. You know what I mean, and

  Speaker 4: guy if you're setting that.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: If you don't have to be mean about it, right.
• 1:35

• 1:38
  Speaker 4: But it's like, yeah, you don't have to be mean
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: about it. You can be very clear, Hey, I feel

• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to be a softer way of saying that exact same message.
