Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, twenty, first day of August. I'm Wes, thanks
0:14
Speaker 2: for joining me. DNC continues on the convention happening in Chicago.
0:24
Speaker 2: One of the people who had and I know we
0:25
Speaker 2: had the Biden speech, the Obama speech. We got Governor
0:31
Speaker 2: Walls set to speak today and officially accept the nomination
0:36
Speaker 2: as the vice president. But one of the kind of
0:40
Speaker 2: standouts that's I don't know, getting headlines is there's the
0:48
Speaker 2: his name is Sean Faine and he's the United Automobiles
0:53
Speaker 2: Workers president. He spoke I guess the first night of
0:58
Speaker 2: the convention, and then he's been doing the round doing
1:00
Speaker 2: some interviews and speaking I guess where people will hear him.
1:04
Speaker 2: And he's this is the position that he has taken
1:08
Speaker 2: that he's making public. He's talking about immigration and he
1:12
Speaker 2: says that the border crisis is a joke and it's manufactured.
1:17
Speaker 2: Those are the words he said, that it's a manufactured crisis.
1:22
Speaker 2: He says it's a joke. I think it's a manufactured crisis.
1:25
Speaker 2: And this was at a roundtable in Chicago. I guess yesterday.
1:30
Speaker 2: He says, they're not invaders, They're not murderers and rapists,
1:34
Speaker 2: except for the ones that are. We got enough people
1:37
Speaker 2: right here in the USA that commit. When you look
1:40
Speaker 2: at the acts of terrorism, you look at all the
1:42
Speaker 2: things going on, most of them are homegrown. You know,
1:45
Speaker 2: these people aren't invaders. They're not invading our country to
1:49
Speaker 2: take over our country. They're destitute people. And he also
1:54
Speaker 2: says that Republicans aren't really being very biblical. He says,
2:00
Speaker 2: you know, you want to hold up you know, they
2:02
Speaker 2: want to hold up their Bibles and wrap theirself in
2:05
Speaker 2: an American flag and talk about everything holy. But you know,
2:08
Speaker 2: I don't think anyone ever read the darn Bible paraphrasing.
2:15
Speaker 2: So let's talk about this. Is it a manufactured crisis
2:20
Speaker 2: or is it a real problem or all of the
2:23
Speaker 2: people coming in murders. No, certainly not. The fact that
2:27
Speaker 2: some are coming in and people aren't keeping tabs on
2:30
Speaker 2: them is what is the concern. The fact that there
2:33
Speaker 2: are people coming in without applying for the actual process
2:37
Speaker 2: of coming into the country. That's the other the big issue.
2:42
Speaker 2: The fact that there are people coming into the country
2:45
Speaker 2: holding out their hands and asking for free things. This
2:48
Speaker 2: is the problem. It's not about whether or not people
2:53
Speaker 2: are wanting to love each other as a neighbor. People
2:56
Speaker 2: are just trying to say, hey, we're all struggling right
2:58
Speaker 2: now and we can't afford to take in the neighbor.
3:05
Speaker 2: I mean, how many times has your family been in
3:07
Speaker 2: a situation where you just kind of go, We're going
3:09
Speaker 2: to have to make some sacrifices right now because this
3:12
Speaker 2: isn't in the family budget anymore, and this isn't money
3:16
Speaker 2: that we have to spend anymore. And there was a
3:19
Speaker 2: time five years ago economically things were humming right along,
3:24
Speaker 2: we were doing great. COVID happened, and quite frankly, there
3:28
Speaker 2: was an opportunist attitude that came along for some to
3:34
Speaker 2: say there were Democrat strategists that took to social media
3:37
Speaker 2: and said, this is our chance to get rid of Trump.
3:40
Speaker 2: This is what we're going to do. And there's a
3:42
Speaker 2: lot of questions about how much of some of the
3:47
Speaker 2: things that were put in place when it came to
3:50
Speaker 2: COVID were in the best interest of the people, and
3:53
Speaker 2: how many were in the best interest of people in
3:55
Speaker 2: power or people who wanted to be in power. You
3:57
Speaker 2: could debate all those topics all day, But the reality
4:01
Speaker 2: is we came out of COVID with a new president
4:05
Speaker 2: who had promised to unite the country, bring everybody together,
4:09
Speaker 2: didn't do that, and bragged about the number of jobs
4:13
Speaker 2: that's been created. It's not even like all the jobs
4:17
Speaker 2: that went away because of COVID haven't even returned, so
4:20
Speaker 2: we're not back to pre COVID levels of job creation.
4:24
Speaker 2: But bragged about bringing back jobs that really were just
4:27
Speaker 2: gone during the pandemic, and still brags about it. I
4:31
Speaker 2: heard an interview with Pete boodhage Edge yesterday where he
4:35
Speaker 2: was saying, you know what, it's job create, record job creation.
4:39
Speaker 2: It's insincere, it's disingenuous, it's not real. Okay, you can't
4:44
Speaker 2: sit there and take credit for creating jobs that really
4:46
Speaker 2: just temporarily went away. So if your family has gone
4:52
Speaker 2: through a pandemic, you've maybe had some career changes. If
4:55
Speaker 2: you're fortunate, maybe you've got a job where you got
4:59
Speaker 2: a little more money. If you didn't get a twenty
5:02
Speaker 2: percent pay increase, you're behind. A lot of people are behind.
5:07
Speaker 2: I got friends that'll tell you right now, at point blank,
5:11
Speaker 2: they had more money five years ago, they're struggling right now.
5:15
Speaker 2: They don't know what to do. I hear it from
5:18
Speaker 2: more and more people that I talk to. Maybe they're
5:20
Speaker 2: just saying, hey, we're doing okay, we're not doing as
5:23
Speaker 2: well as we were doing five years ago. So if
5:26
Speaker 2: you're struggling and you're sort of not saving the way
5:30
Speaker 2: that you wish that you were, or you're not able
5:32
Speaker 2: to take vacations and do things that you wish that
5:34
Speaker 2: you were able to do, and then all of a sudden,
5:38
Speaker 2: someone calls up and says, hey, I got this guy.
5:43
Speaker 2: I met him outside. He's in the neighborhood. He needs
5:48
Speaker 2: somewhere to crash. He wants to come to your house
5:51
Speaker 2: and just stay there for I don't know, two years,
5:54
Speaker 2: and you can feed him and take care of him
5:56
Speaker 2: in any medical bills or whatever he's got. You're gonna
5:58
Speaker 2: say no. You're going to say no to that. And
6:03
Speaker 2: that's what ultimately many Americans are looking at the border
6:06
Speaker 2: and saying, we just can't keep bringing people in. We
6:10
Speaker 2: can't continue to bring people in and pay them just
6:13
Speaker 2: to be here, to give them income, just to be here,
6:19
Speaker 2: just to exist in our country. And you can say, well,
6:22
Speaker 2: some of them are working. Are they working legally or illegally?
6:26
Speaker 2: Are they paying taxes? If they're working and they're not
6:28
Speaker 2: paying taxes, and they's supposed to, you know, paying taxes
6:30
Speaker 2: is supposed to be that great privilege and honor that
6:32
Speaker 2: we're supposed to have. That's what we've been told by
6:35
Speaker 2: folks on the left. It's an honor and a privilege
6:37
Speaker 2: to pay taxes. They should be paying taxes, but they're
6:40
Speaker 2: not here in a way that they can, so in
6:43
Speaker 2: many cases, they're taking the freebies. I'd just like to
6:48
Speaker 2: also point out that this guy, while giving his speech
6:51
Speaker 2: at the convention the other night, was wearing a T
6:53
Speaker 2: shirt that said Trump is a scab. Vote Harris. Now
6:58
Speaker 2: this is because he's part of the United Automobiles Workers.
7:02
Speaker 2: He's the president there, so of course they're going to
7:06
Speaker 2: refer to you know, this is a negative term in
7:09
Speaker 2: the unions when somebody's crossing the picket line. Is Trump
7:13
Speaker 2: the scab? Or is Harris the scab? Let's think about
7:16
Speaker 2: that for a minute. Biden is the president, Biden was
7:20
Speaker 2: the candidate. They pushed Biden aside, and Harris jumped up
7:27
Speaker 2: and took the nomination, like just took it away from him.
7:30
Speaker 2: I mean, that's more scab like, isn't it the person
7:32
Speaker 2: who should be accepting the nomination? This week? Formally, I
7:37
Speaker 2: had to give a speech the first night late. They
7:42
Speaker 2: kicked him out of prime time. They put him on
7:44
Speaker 2: after eleven o'clock and made him speak. Guy was tired,
7:47
Speaker 2: you know, he was tired. You know, he was ready
7:49
Speaker 2: to go home. He'd probably missed four or five episodes murder,
7:51
Speaker 2: she wrote, and they made him going. So who's really
7:54
Speaker 2: the scab? How is Trump the scab and not Harris?
7:58
Speaker 2: That seems more scab like? Another quick thing I want
8:01
Speaker 2: to talk about this morning, and it's just been on
8:04
Speaker 2: my mind because I feel like I doubt I got
8:10
Speaker 2: many people listening to this show that this applies to,
8:13
Speaker 2: but you probably know people that are. And I've been
8:15
Speaker 2: trying to come up with the best kind of analogy
8:20
Speaker 2: for what social media is this time of year, because
8:23
Speaker 2: we're really we're getting down to the end. We're months
8:26
Speaker 2: away from voting, and in some cases early voting is
8:30
Speaker 2: about to start. So you got probably got people that
8:34
Speaker 2: are just on social media driving you crazy, shouting from
8:38
Speaker 2: the rooftops. Anybody that'll listen. I want to just tell
8:41
Speaker 2: you what you're supposed to vote, how you're supposed to think,
8:44
Speaker 2: what you're supposed to do, how the other candidate's terrible.
8:47
Speaker 2: I'm talking about both sides. And I've used this analogy
8:52
Speaker 2: before for a few things, for you know, climate change,
8:56
Speaker 2: for the uh, some of the different like anytime somebody
9:02
Speaker 2: is like a vegan, anytime somebody's into organic food, anytime
9:06
Speaker 2: they you know, all the way down to you know,
9:09
Speaker 2: some of these workout programs that people get on and
9:11
Speaker 2: they can't stop talking about how they do it all
9:13
Speaker 2: the time. Sort of becomes like their religion this time
9:17
Speaker 2: of year, in an election year. This is a social
9:20
Speaker 2: media posting I think is in a way religion for
9:23
Speaker 2: some people. Don't worry. We're getting close to college football.
9:27
Speaker 2: You'll get your chance where you can, you know, get
9:30
Speaker 2: really passionate about that and be a fanatic. We'll talk
9:34
Speaker 2: about fanaticism coming up in a little bit. I got
9:37
Speaker 2: a thing to talk about with that, how fanaticism can
9:40
Speaker 2: be a good thing, but not necessarily with this. This
9:43
Speaker 2: is a different kind of fanaticism, but it probably applies
9:46
Speaker 2: to what I'm going to talk about there because it's
9:47
Speaker 2: about community. But anyway, so I've told you before that
9:51
Speaker 2: I think about to me and I climate change. You know,
9:56
Speaker 2: the people that are screaming that the world's gonna end
9:59
Speaker 2: and we're all going to die, and that equivalently it
10:03
Speaker 2: makes it a religion. So think about this. Have you
10:09
Speaker 2: ever you know what most of us have had this experience.
10:12
Speaker 2: You're walking down the street, maybe even in your own hometown,
10:16
Speaker 2: maybe you're away from home, you know, somewhere in a city,
10:20
Speaker 2: larger city, maybe from where you live, and you're walking
10:24
Speaker 2: down the street and you encounter one of those people.
10:29
Speaker 2: It's someone who is standing on the street corner. Maybe
10:32
Speaker 2: they're wearing one of those sandwich boards. Maybe they're waving
10:35
Speaker 2: a Bible around. Maybe they've got like a like a bullhorn,
10:39
Speaker 2: like a megaphone, and they're screaming, you know, Bible versus
10:42
Speaker 2: at you or how you're all going to go to hell,
10:45
Speaker 2: You're all going to die. I just encountered one of
10:49
Speaker 2: these people at we went weeks ago, we went to
10:54
Speaker 2: a Atlanta United game, and as we were walking up
10:59
Speaker 2: to to see that we're heading in and we're about
11:03
Speaker 2: to go into Mercedes Benz and we passed Phillips Serena
11:08
Speaker 2: where there was a comedy show set for that night.
11:11
Speaker 2: Forget who the comic was, but a big comic show.
11:14
Speaker 2: People were all piling in there. So there were soccer
11:16
Speaker 2: fans going into one building and comedy fans going out there.
11:20
Speaker 2: Not just comedy fans, people going in to see whoever
11:22
Speaker 2: the comic was. And there was someone out there, you know,
11:27
Speaker 2: with the you know, hey, yeah, I know you're here
11:30
Speaker 2: to have a good time and enjoy the comedy show.
11:33
Speaker 2: But remember, if you don't have God in your life,
11:36
Speaker 2: you're gonna go to hell. And you know they're saying
11:38
Speaker 2: those things, so we've all encountered it. There'll be people
11:44
Speaker 2: like this, you know, I want to go to Dragon
11:46
Speaker 2: Con in a little over a week, you know, week
11:49
Speaker 2: and a half. I'll be a dragon now and I'm
11:50
Speaker 2: going to encounter this there. They're always there. There's always
11:53
Speaker 2: people there that are screaming, you know about they go
11:56
Speaker 2: out during the parade on Saturday and they're out there.
11:59
Speaker 2: You can hear them, and they're screaming about how you
12:02
Speaker 2: need God in your life. That's what you need. You
12:05
Speaker 2: need God in your life. And I'm not necessarily saying
12:08
Speaker 2: that they're all wrong. You know, there's probably many people
12:11
Speaker 2: who hear them that say, well, I do I dood
12:14
Speaker 2: heed God in my life. But h and it doesn't
12:17
Speaker 2: necessarily mean that when you see them that you disagree
12:19
Speaker 2: with them. I've seen people around Columbus doing this. They're out,
12:23
Speaker 2: you know, kind of street corner preaching U. There's a
12:26
Speaker 2: guy who drives around and he waves a Bible out
12:28
Speaker 2: the window of his car. I've talked about that guy
12:30
Speaker 2: of his truck. I've talked about him. But let me
12:35
Speaker 2: just say this, when you encounter that, even if you
12:38
Speaker 2: agree with them, I mean, and just just be honest here,
12:41
Speaker 2: especially if you're going and take the guy in the
12:44
Speaker 2: truck or you know the people that are Maybe there's
12:47
Speaker 2: some guys in Columbus that record videos and they're just
12:49
Speaker 2: out on the street somewhere record not in the street,
12:52
Speaker 2: on the sidewalk and they're recording videos as you walk
12:54
Speaker 2: past them. But they're trying to get a message out.
12:57
Speaker 2: And maybe they're on I don't know, Facebook or something
13:00
Speaker 2: and they're trying to tell people their message and that's
13:03
Speaker 2: I guess maybe their version of church. I don't know.
13:05
Speaker 2: But my point is when you see these people and
13:08
Speaker 2: if especially if you're going to an event, you're walking
13:10
Speaker 2: in to watch a concert or you're going to a
13:12
Speaker 2: parade or whatever it is. Be honest, what is the
13:17
Speaker 2: thought that comes in your mind when when you hear them?
13:21
Speaker 2: I mean, even if you agree with what they're saying,
13:25
Speaker 2: it's one of those situations where you see them and
13:28
Speaker 2: you just think, not here, let's do we have to
13:32
Speaker 2: do this here? Right? I mean I think that's or
13:35
Speaker 2: you know, hey shut up. You know some people think
13:37
Speaker 2: that even if you agree with them, you might not think,
13:40
Speaker 2: hey shut up, but you might think, oh no, this
13:43
Speaker 2: isn't gonna win anybody over. This isn't gonna make it work.
13:47
Speaker 2: You can't do it this way. This isn't the way
13:49
Speaker 2: it's going to be effective. You're shouting into nothing. You're
13:54
Speaker 2: just shouting out hoping that something reaches someone. And this
13:58
Speaker 2: isn't the way to do it. Uh pardon expression, but
14:01
Speaker 2: you're effectively farting in the wind. Right. It's your message
14:05
Speaker 2: isn't going to hit home. That's as strong a language
14:08
Speaker 2: I'm gonna use. It's not going to hit home. It's
14:10
Speaker 2: just not going to land the way that you think
14:13
Speaker 2: it's going to land, all right, And that's what I
14:19
Speaker 2: see on social media when people are screaming about politics,
14:23
Speaker 2: and they're trying to convince people. It's a small group
14:26
Speaker 2: of people that are even going to see it. They're
14:28
Speaker 2: probably going to agree with you. Some people aren't. They're
14:30
Speaker 2: going to ignore it. They're going to just keep walking.
14:33
Speaker 2: It's the equivalent of just keep walking past the street preacher.
14:36
Speaker 2: It's kind of like that. The street preacher is passionate
14:40
Speaker 2: about what they're saying. They believe it. They believe that
14:42
Speaker 2: it's their mission to be there and deliver that message.
14:46
Speaker 2: You don't want to fault them for that. You believe
14:48
Speaker 2: it's your message, and you're supposed to be there, and
14:51
Speaker 2: you're passionate about whatever political candidate you're screaming about on
14:55
Speaker 2: social media. But you're not winning anybody over. This isn't
14:58
Speaker 2: an effective method. There's a reason that there are churches.
15:02
Speaker 2: There's a reason that people go to churches to hear
15:05
Speaker 2: a message and not go to comedy shows to hear
15:08
Speaker 2: a message on their way in the door. But again,
15:12
Speaker 2: this is what they believe is going to be the
15:15
Speaker 2: best way to win people over, and I disagree. I
15:17
Speaker 2: don't think that's the best way to win people over.
15:19
Speaker 2: And I also don't think it's the best way to
15:21
Speaker 2: win people over on social media. I think you were
15:23
Speaker 2: effectively the person with the sandwich board, standing out in
15:26
Speaker 2: the middle of nowhere with your Bible in your hand,
15:29
Speaker 2: waving around and screaming at people. Hey, this is why
15:33
Speaker 2: Trump's an idiot. Hey, this is why Harris is an idiot.
15:36
Speaker 2: I just don't think that that's the way you're ever
15:39
Speaker 2: going to convince anybody. I miss the old days when
15:43
Speaker 2: you could just, you know, go and vote. It was private.
15:47
Speaker 2: You didn't have some feeling that you had to tell
15:51
Speaker 2: everybody who you were going to vote for. In fact,
15:54
Speaker 2: it was very easy at one time for people to say,
15:58
Speaker 2: I want to talk about this. This is private. I
16:01
Speaker 2: don't want to tell you who I voted for. It
16:02
Speaker 2: is a reason that we go in and do secret ballots.
16:06
Speaker 2: There's a reason that we privately go in and vote.
16:09
Speaker 2: But people now feel like if you don't scare people
16:12
Speaker 2: into voting the way you want them to vote, it's
16:14
Speaker 2: not going to get the job done. And people feel
16:17
Speaker 2: like they have to vent on social media. Maybe they
16:19
Speaker 2: just don't have anybody else to vent to. Maybe the
16:23
Speaker 2: street preachers don't have anybody to scream their message to either.
16:26
Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Columbus State Universities Coca
16:29

17:24
Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
17:26
Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
17:30

17:39

18:36
Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
18:39
Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
18:42
Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
18:44
Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
18:48
Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
18:51
Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
18:53
Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
18:56
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when you're garage
19:00
Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
19:03
Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
19:07
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
19:10
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
19:13
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
19:16
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
19:19
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
19:22
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
19:24
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
19:26
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
19:28
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
19:31
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
19:34
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
19:36
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
19:40
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
19:43

19:53
Speaker 2: after the break. How much do we love our dog?
20:05
Speaker 2: So much that, according to a new survey, seventy six
20:08
Speaker 2: percent of dog owners think that their dog is the
20:11
Speaker 2: main character of their family. Eighty four percent of dog
20:16
Speaker 2: parents think their dog as like a child. Forty one
20:20
Speaker 2: percent of respondents said they think of their dog before
20:22
Speaker 2: anyone else after a rough day, even more so than
20:25
Speaker 2: their partner. Seventy percent said it's perfectly acceptable for their
20:30
Speaker 2: dog to be on the couch. Sixty seven percent said
20:33
Speaker 2: the same about their bed. Forty eight percent said they
20:36
Speaker 2: would rather cut their own expenses than have their dog
20:41
Speaker 2: go without. Let's see how we break all this down.
20:48
Speaker 2: Main character in the family. I mean that almost seems
20:51
Speaker 2: like a playful thing, right. I don't think they literally
20:54
Speaker 2: mean to that. Do they think of the dog as
20:56
Speaker 2: a child? Yeah, I mean if you don't have actual children,
21:01
Speaker 2: or you don't have maybe you've got children and their
21:04
Speaker 2: adults now and you're kind of empty nesting it, maybe
21:06
Speaker 2: you start thinking of you don't I mean, our dog
21:08
Speaker 2: is still kind of like a kid, but not quite
21:11
Speaker 2: the same. We had another dog before we had kids,
21:13
Speaker 2: and it was just different. There's just something different about that.
21:17
Speaker 2: But on the couch and on the bed. Sure, why not.
21:20
Speaker 2: You're not gonna let them get up there and cuddle
21:22
Speaker 2: with you. Come on, you got to do that, you
21:25
Speaker 2: got to. I don't know about this thinking about them
21:28
Speaker 2: before you think about people. Do you have a rough day?
21:31
Speaker 2: I don't know about all that, all right. Another way
21:34
Speaker 2: gen Z is making old school cool again, I guess
21:38
Speaker 2: is with photo booths. They're bringing back photo booths. I mean,
21:45
Speaker 2: it's a selfie culture that we live in, right, But
21:50
Speaker 2: apparently there's something about the machine itself and you get that,
21:56
Speaker 2: you know, the lighting, the way the photos created. It's
21:59
Speaker 2: got that class feel to the actual pictures that come out.
22:03
Speaker 2: I guess, I don't know, but apparently, Yeah, people are
22:07
Speaker 2: like starting to put these photo booth machines up in
22:11
Speaker 2: places and they want it, they want it back. I
22:15
Speaker 2: haven't seen one, but I suppose if they're popping up,
22:18
Speaker 2: we're going to start seeing them at some point. How
22:20
Speaker 2: long can they last? I don't know. Is there still
22:23
Speaker 2: somebody to maintain those things? All right? Are you a
22:28
Speaker 2: super fan of something? Are you a fanatic? A true fanatic?
22:32
Speaker 2: That's where the term fan comes from, right, So maybe
22:37
Speaker 2: a sports team. I mean, we live in the Southeast.
22:40
Speaker 2: We know how people can get really passionate about their
22:42
Speaker 2: sports team, especially college. Maybe you know favorite music artist.
22:49
Speaker 2: The Taylor Swift people are really kind of out of control.
22:52
Speaker 2: They seem to have called out a little bit, I think,
22:55
Speaker 2: but they were really out of control for a while.
22:57
Speaker 2: And I don't mean necessarily in a bad way. I
22:59
Speaker 2: just mean, you know, passionate, diehard about Taylor Swift. Maybe
23:05
Speaker 2: it's a movie franchise you're into, maybe it's just you know,
23:11
Speaker 2: some weird, obscure thing that you're really a fanatic of.
23:15
Speaker 2: But they say that superfans have something that most everyone
23:19
Speaker 2: else doesn't, and that's a sense of community. They say
23:22
Speaker 2: that being really passionate about something helps connect you with
23:25
Speaker 2: others who are also passionate about that, and that brings
23:29
Speaker 2: those super fans that sense of community, purpose and excitement,
23:33
Speaker 2: and they say it boosts well being and happiness. So basically,
23:37
Speaker 2: in short, and I mean I've given a little flat
23:40
Speaker 2: to some of the like the Taylor Swift people. Basically,
23:44
Speaker 2: if it's you know, makes you more social, gives you
23:49
Speaker 2: an opportunity to be around more people, allows you to
23:52
Speaker 2: enjoy things when a time when a lot of people
23:56
Speaker 2: are struggling to enjoy things. Now, maybe you can't afford
23:59
Speaker 2: to go to a tailor shift concert. Those things are
24:01
Speaker 2: expensive and with this economy it's really nuts. But you know,
24:07
Speaker 2: good for you, So that's it. Enjoy it. Don't let
24:11
Speaker 2: anybody give you any grief about it. Hey, if you're
24:13
Speaker 2: starting a new job, there's some advice. According to at
24:20
Speaker 2: least one job strategy trainer named Julian Cole says, there's
24:23
Speaker 2: three types of people if you're starting at a new
24:26
Speaker 2: job that you should avoid in like an office environment,
24:30
Speaker 2: first and foremost. And this makes the most sense out
24:33
Speaker 2: of all. I mean, they all make sense, but this
24:37
Speaker 2: one really makes sense. You want to stay away from
24:39
Speaker 2: the gossips. If they gossip about other people to you,
24:43
Speaker 2: they're probably gossiping to other people about you, right, that's
24:48
Speaker 2: true of all gossips. I think you should avoid them
24:50
Speaker 2: in most circumstances. I understand sometimes you can't help it.
24:56
Speaker 2: Sometimes they got juicy stuff that you want to hear.
25:00
Speaker 2: I can remember a previous job where there was a
25:02
Speaker 2: gossip there and I would intentionally give her bad information
25:05
Speaker 2: and see how long it took to get back to me.
25:07
Speaker 2: That was fun. That's a fun. Game you can play.
25:09
Speaker 2: I advise that you know it can't be anything incriminating,
25:13
Speaker 2: it can't be anything too bad, But you want to
25:15
Speaker 2: get this a little bit of gossip out there that
25:17
Speaker 2: might circle back around to you and then someone's going
25:19
Speaker 2: to call and say, are you telling so and so
25:23
Speaker 2: that this happened. Yes, So that's what's fun. Also, the
25:28
Speaker 2: negative people, you want to stay away from those pessimists.
25:30
Speaker 2: Once you learn somebody is always negative and always a pessimist,
25:33
Speaker 2: stay away from them if you want to stay positive.
25:37
Speaker 2: You don't want to be lumped in with the negative people.
25:39
Speaker 2: And then finally the HR Department, they kind of come
25:42
Speaker 2: across as maybe they're on your side. There's maybe some
25:45
Speaker 2: of the first people that you meet when you get there,
25:48
Speaker 2: but they're really looking out for the company first and foremost.
25:51
Speaker 2: That's what their job is. So you probably don't want
25:53
Speaker 2: to go spill all your guts to the HR department.
25:56
Speaker 2: That's all That'll do it for this when day edition
