  Speaker 1: It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning, and today we
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: prank call a woman who just found out a juicy
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: piece of office gossip. Do we get to know it too?
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: I love. One of her co workers told her that
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the company had to let go of new hire because
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: corporate found out they'd lied on their resume. So wait,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: they actually find out that's not so how does that
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: affect her? She's worked at the company for almost a decade,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: so it shouldn't unless we pretend to be from HR.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Oh no, and say we found a discrepancy in her
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: files too. That's what happens in your phone tap right now? Hello?
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Hi is this Andrea? Yeah, Hi Andrew, This is Troy
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: mc stiff from HR. How you doing today? I'm all right?
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: How are you good? So you may have heard we
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: had an issue recently with an incoming employee who falsified
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: part of their resume. Yeah. I heard something about it.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah wow, And what did you think of that? Pretty scandalous? Huh,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: it's not great. I'm gonna put that in the company newsletter.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: That's a great quote. I write that down. You don't
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: need to write that down. I'm not being serious. So
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: that's fine. I'm just I'm gonna make a note of it.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: That was good. So because of that incident, management has
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: directed us to do a company wide records review and
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: your name actually got flagged. My name not flagged. So
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: what So when we cross reference your transcript from Valley
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: State University, everything looked great except one of the electives.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: You took music theory one oh eight, taught by a
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: professor Handleman. That was a long time ago, right, But
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the transcripts, I mean they stay forever, and it says
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: that you got a C minus in that class. Have
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: you done music theory? It's very hard. I mean, I'm
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: in HR, so I took classes that would actually make
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: me money in the real world. Excuse me anyway, Unfortunately,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: our internal education standards does require a C grade or
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: better in all general course works. What does that mean?
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: It means there's a chance that your time with us
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: could be over. And so you're calling me about a
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: chance because I got a C minu because it's over
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: a decade ago, right, But I mean, listen, I would
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: feel the exact same way that you would. So you
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: understand that this is absurd. Well, rules are rules, and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I went to a harder college than you did. But
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I'm not here to judge. I'm here to offer you
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: a solution because if you would like to stay with
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the company, and it sounds like you do, you're asking
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: me if I want to keep my job after all
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: of the time that I've put into this place. Yeah,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: what's your solution? That's a great attitude. So you can
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: fulfill the requirement by taking one approved course from our
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: local community college partner. You want me to go back
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to school to make up for a music theory c minus?
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: If you want to stay employed with our company, then yeah,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: this is ridiculous. Well, look, I have the course list
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: right in front of me and they've definitely updated the offerings.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: This is crazy. Here's the options that would count toward
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: fulfilling that credit. Oh okay. One option is advanced whistling
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: three oh one from folk Tunes to Fleetwood Mac. I
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: don't whistle? You don't whistle? No? Is it? Okay? If
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I mark that down in your personal file that you
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: can't whistle? Okay, got it. Let's go to another option here,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Emoji linguistics two A four what nonverbal rage and digital
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: sob cries? That can't be a real class All right,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna mark that as a no. And there's
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: another option here, a class called uku la rage, subversion
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and soft strings in protest music. You know, I've got
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of rage right now. Maybe that's the one. Okay, great,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: that one meets twice a week on beanbags, So can
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I mark you down for that? No, I don't understand
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: any of this. I'm not agreeing to anything over the phone.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: You call me out of the blue and tell me
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: that I could get fired because of a class years
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and years ago that has nothing to do with my job,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: which I'm very good at. No, I need all of
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: this in writing. I don't know you. I don't know
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: what this is about. Okay, by writing you mean emojis,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I mean a detailed letter. Okay, we're obviously not seeing
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: eye to eye on this, Andrea, So no, obviously not.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Maybe the reason for that could be because this is
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: a prank phone call. So what maybe not? Oh my god,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: who did this? Your friend Casey did it? Because this
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: is actually jeff from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm gonna kill her. I'm gonna kill it. Yeah,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: she told us that there was a person in your
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: company who lied on their resume and it caused a
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: huge problem and had to let them go. And so
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: that's why you knew that. Yeah, of course you had
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the lowdown, But honestly, I was hoping that you were
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: going to sign up for that ukulele rage class. That
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: sounds fun. I mean, it's not completely out of the question.
• 5:23
