  Speaker 3: a half weeks.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Service life was not for me. I didn't even know

  Speaker 4: you worked there. I don't think I knew that part
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: of your history.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I tried to black it out.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: It was not fun.

  Speaker 1: Is it black it out or block it out? Both.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Here are the top signs your new boss is toxic.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: If they choose favorites, and it's obvious that certain employees
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: get better treatment. That's one thing.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that'd be terrible.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: That happened here. Remember we had a boss? Oh, yeah.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: People couldn't do anything wrong.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: And we couldn't do anything right.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: If your fellow employees act differently around your boss, especially
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: if it causes them stress or anxiety. Yeah. Mm-hmm. These
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: are the top signs your new boss is toxic. If
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: they constantly change priorities and don't care how it affects
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: the team. Yeah, we had one of those too. Same guy.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: If they only celebrate themselves, but not the team. Ooh,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: that's bad. This is a big one. You know, this
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: happens to me currently. If they ignore your emails.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: But how many emails are you sending, John Jack?
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Not many. Mostly texts. Mostly texts. And then I got
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: to go, hey, since you texted, you can get back
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: to me. And they'll go, they'll look. They go, oh, yeah,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: you did. If they want praise and give none. Uh,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: this is the number one red flag. If your boss
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: is toxic, what do you think? You said take credit
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: for other, that's not on here, but that's a good one.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: You got one, Kyle.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: I would say something about like, uh, like always contacting
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: you outside of work hours.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Man, that's, uh, that's interesting. That's to me. I think
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: that's okay.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, because you're a toxic boss. Just a totally different
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: type of toxic.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Bingo. What about you, Rich? What's a toxic boss for you?
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Before I give you the number one answer.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: I would say they only put you down but never
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: give you praise.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I already did that one. They want praise. Oh. What
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: about that one boss that said, a little too much
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Rich Barrett this morning?
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: Ooh, I've heard that a lot. What does that mean?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Like you're being too much like yourself?
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Isn't that a good thing?
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: He was talking too much.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I was the first day on a morning show that
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I'm hosting. It's like, a little too much Rich Barrett today.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I'm like, well, I mean, do you want me to
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: do somebody else?
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I had to create this whole segment just to get
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: that point across to him right now. No, the number
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: one reason, number one red flag that your boss might
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: be toxic is if they badmouth former employees. Oh, yeah.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: But what if they were actually not very important?
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: I know. You know what? I always think about that
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: when you always hear about, oh, you went on a
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: date or you met a guy and the guy was
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: always trash-talking his ex, calling her psycho. I was like, well,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: what if she is psycho?
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, because there are psycho people.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: There are.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: It's like if they double back and they say that
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: she's psycho multiple times.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Like if you say it once, okay, she's probably psycho.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: But when you keep talking about your ex, that's.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Where the red flags come. Now, honestly, they were like
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: actually legitimately psycho.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Like if you say it like that when you're qualifying it,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: does it matter? Are you still trash talking?
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: I think you can qualify it with like examples of
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: the psychoness, you know, like if you just say she's
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: psycho and then don't really say why, then I think
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: that'd be a red flag. But if you said she
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: was psycho and you're like, she burnt down my mom's
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: house after I forgot to call her back.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah. That's psycho.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: That's good. That's good. That's very good. Right.
