In this episode, we dive into a candid conversation with Izzy, who is just six weeks shy of turning 16, about her experiences, hobbies, and thoughts on various topics. We begin by discussing her biggest pastimes, where Izzy shares that her interests have shifted over time from drawing to spending time with friends, playing online games like Minecraft and Among Us, and engaging in role-playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons. As we explore her current hobbies, it becomes clear that, while she once enjoyed drawing, her focus is now more on social interactions and team-based gaming.
We uncover Izzy's perspective on the online gaming community and her enjoyment of games that offer humorous social interactions, particularly within Roblox. She elaborates on how these games often devolve into comical scenarios with friends. Our talk shifts to her unique take on recent trends and her thoughts on online interactions, leading her to reflect on how friendships and gaming have evolved since 2020.
The conversation takes a deeper dive into her work experiences, specifically at an ice cream parlor, where she recounts an overwhelming early encounter with a new manager that altered her initially positive outlook on the job. Izzy describes her transition from excitement to frustration as the job became increasingly demanding with unclear expectations. She bravely discusses the challenges of juggling customer orders, training on new systems, stiff management, and her efforts to advocate for her coworkers. Notably, she shares an experience of being accused of stealing tips as she tried to ensure her shy co-worker was compensated fairly, which led to unjust repercussions in terms of her hours and treatment at work.
We further explore her ideas about future career aspirations, highlighting her ambition to open a café someday. Izzy mentions how her previous experiences in cafes provide her with insights into managing a business, learning from both positive and negative examples. The conversation wraps up with amusing anecdotes about her experiences in both the workplace and school, touching on the differences in learning styles and the value of education outside traditional systems.
Throughout the episode, Izzy's humor, resilience, and evolving perspective on life as a teenager are evident, creating a dynamic and relatable dialogue about the challenges and joys of growing up today.
[0:00] Okay, we got some questions. And we have a crow in the studio.
[0:07] Yes, this is going to be a great one for you to doze off to.
[0:10] Yeah, guys, I'm really quiet and you should trust me on that.
[0:13] So we got some questions for Izzy, who is, well, you are six weeks from 16.
[0:19] I'm basically at the legal drinking age.
[0:22] In where? Saudi Arabia.
[0:24] In wherever I feel like.
[0:25] Right, wherever the Quran holds sway, you're sure to have a drink.
[0:28] Literally.
[0:29] Okay, so what is your biggest past time?
[0:33] Like thing I do when I'm not like doing other stuff.
[0:36] Yeah, like hobbying and stuff, right?
[0:38] I like calling with friends. Yes. I like, I used to like drawing more, not as much anymore. I've kind of got the point where it's like, I'm not very good, but I'm not really getting better because I'm not putting the effort in or I don't have enough interest to put the effort in to do, to like actually get better. but i'm not naturally getting better the way i was when i was younger because when i was younger i was just getting older and like yeah.
[1:02] You develop skills no matter what right yeah like when you first start singing you open up your voice pretty quickly and then you you get diminishing returns over time right yeah
[1:10] Honestly i have not had a lot of free time recently well.
[1:14] You've got work and school and
[1:18] Yeah a lot of work not even not not not next week but a lot of work most weeks I had a lot of work, so I'm not actually 100% sure.
[1:26] And when we're not working, there's other stuff just going on. We did some D&D.
[1:29] You did a great dungeon.
[1:30] Oh, yeah. I do enjoy D&D.
[1:32] Yeah. Did a great dungeon. Okay. So biggest pastime, favorite pastime, I guess those
[1:36] Are- Kind of the same thing.
[1:37] What online games do you play? Not just with listeners, I would assume, but what are your online games these days?
[1:42] I only play online games with listeners.
[1:44] Friends?
[1:45] I mean, Minecraft would kind of be with both.
[1:47] Yes. True. True. Oh, I play
[1:49] Roblox with some friends. I've never been much of a Roblox person. but it's funny if you have the right people. There's like these tycoon kind of games, which are absolutely- Okay.
[1:59] You gotta explain Roblox is not a game. I'm explaining it right now. Okay, sorry.
[2:03] Anybody who doesn't know what Roblox is, that's on you. I'm sorry. It's been out for like 15 years and you should probably get with it. But there's a type of game on Roblox and it's like a whole genre and they're called the tycoon games. I have discovered them recently. Maybe I need to get with it. but they're basically like the dumbest most like non-brain usage games if that even makes sense like you don't do anything in them except like if you're playing with the right people they can be extremely funny because if they're multiplayer there's usually like a boss and then everyone else is the worker obviously descends into slavery jokes but it's funny it's quite or child labor is the big one child labor jokes those are those are funny, And then there's obviously like the more interesting Roblox games. But I play those with friends, listeners, honestly, games from 2020, because that's when the whole thing started. We still play Among Us. We just had an anniversary. Yeah, four-year anniversary on October 31st, also Halloween, of like the big gaming community in Freedomain.
[3:06] We had Old School Among Us. We used to play Goose Goose Duck. We've done some trivia.
[3:11] Minecraft, Unreal Tournament.
[3:13] Oh, that's the show. Worms, that's right.
[3:16] Words, Witchet, which is actually really fun.
[3:18] Witchet, that's right.
[3:20] Oh my gosh, I know there's a bunch more. Deep Rock Galactic, Battlestar, no, Starfield? Starcraft. Starcraft, yeah. Those were like the big ones. And obviously there were games, oh, Settlers of Catan. But then there were games that people played for like a couple months that didn't really get recorded or like have their own specific channel. They were just in the other games.
[3:39] All right. Do you have any preferred or disliked type of questions?
[3:42] I honestly don't care. Any questions are good. usually the ones that might go on for like five paragraphs it's like okay i don't mind those because they can be really really interesting but other times it's just like you could have put this into two sentences you are a yapper which i you know i mean i'm kind of doing friendly fire when i accuse someone of being a yapper but so.
[3:59] There's a couple of new phrases that you've really developed
[4:02] Over the last couple months yeah.
[4:04] Absolute yapper it's not it's literally not
[4:06] That literally not that serious.
[4:08] So unpack that for people what does that
[4:09] Mean okay so if we're like I don't even remember what was it yeah so I was gonna go to work or something I'll use this as an example let's say I'm going to work in an hour and you know I'm gonna use the example right now, And then you're like, let's do a show or let's do something. And mom would be like, well, you have to, you have work at four and like.
[4:30] Work backwards from there.
[4:31] Work backwards. Actually, if you guys do your show for 45 minutes, that means, let's say it's like 240 because it's like 20 minutes to work. So like, let's say you do your show for 45 minutes. That leaves you like 10 minutes to get ready. It's literally not that serious. I will get to work on time. If my hair is not in the perfect ponytail, it's not that serious.
[4:51] But mom has the hair commute. Like she's got to do the whole hair thing
[4:54] No she doesn't But.
[4:55] It's different for you She'll go like a week
[4:56] Without washing your hair bro No.
[4:58] But she has to When she's going someplace She's got to do the hair thing And that's like an hour Easy
[5:03] Maybe Okay look When I'm working at a coffee shop For a three hour A three and a half hour shift Of training I'm not I'm not putting that much effort into it It's not that serious Hair modeling It's not that serious That's what I mean Like if Or if she's like Oh your shirt doesn't match as much She's like I don't It's not that serious I'm wearing an apron I don't care Right right No one's seen my shirt. That's kind of, it's not that serious. I know I just made all of those examples about my mom, but I use it a lot.
[5:29] And I think she washes her hair more than once a week.
[5:31] Maybe twice.
[5:32] All right. You won $100,000 by sheer luck. What do you do with it?
[5:35] Oh, save it. Maybe put, I mean, I should put it in Bitcoin, but it doesn't even buy a whole Bitcoin anymore. So like, in Canadian money.
[5:44] Oh yeah, maybe this is US. No, this is 100,000 Bitcoins.
[5:48] Yeah.
[5:49] So.
[5:50] I would honestly just save it. I hate spending money maybe actually no I would buy a car because I am turning 16 soon yeah I have not the the driving in Canada it's like you can't drive till you're like almost 17 and that's if you get like extra training most people it's a 22 month process from when you take your like the G1 or whatever like the first thing to actually being able to drive without someone else in the car and on a highway and that kind of thing and even even then some people still have curfews like you can't be out past nine no highways all that dumb stuff like you can't be drunk but like no i'm kidding but man if i ever get whoever is training me to drive or given the license i pray they never listen to this show like ever no but i haven't done that yet but it'd be better to get a car now than later and i when i get a car look for my first car i don't want to be one of those kids who gets like a super fancy car i want a second hand like five thousand dollar car from like the 1980s maybe maybe the first one after like horse and carriage because who needs safety that's what the training's.
[7:00] For those cars were safe because there were all these mandates to reduce the amount of metal in the cars so those cars were just tanks oh yeah so you could basically run a train into them and they were like toy cars you just couldn't break them
[7:11] So yeah i would buy a car yeah, The other $100,000, I'd honestly, if I didn't have the option of saving it, I would buy land.
[7:20] I don't know where, somewhere, preferably near a city, because when I get older, if I ever plan to open a business, it would be useful to have some land to begin with.
[7:31] Yes, very good plan. People don't know also if you had the option of saving that you are a dictionary or technical definition of what's called a hoarder. With money. A hoarder.
[7:41] With money and nail polish.
[7:42] It's not just money. Like, what else? Okay, I'm going to give you an example here. This is just to the general audience. So yesterday I booted up a game that we used to play that we haven't played for quite a while.
[7:49] You were on my profile.
[7:50] Sorry, can I just finish my story?
[7:52] He was using my profile.
[7:54] Can I just finish for a moment here, please? So I get up on the game. Now, normally...
[7:58] Why do you have my coaster in here? What?
[8:00] This is yours? Yeah. Well, did you keep track of it? See, you weren't holding this.
[8:04] I never even had it. We got home and I didn't know where it went. Yeah.
[8:07] Okay, so let me just go back to Minecraft Dungeons. So I logged in. we have this confusing thing where we're backwards on minecraft dungeons so i'm playing now you haven't played minecraft dungeons in probably six months six months and before that we really hadn't played much for a year or so right yeah so however first there's two things to know about minecraft dungeons and izzy number one there's still a chest from level one that we have yet to open because you want to keep it there's a chest at the very opening area down
[8:34] Yeah it was the first chest it's the first.
[8:37] Chest number one number two you still keep the very first cool swords you got
[8:42] Sorry that i have sentimental value you do except.
[8:45] You haven't played in forever now i played and what was the first now normally is he comes in you know fairly pleasant but at this point you came
[8:51] In like you're depressed your neck your.
[8:53] Neck your neck was flamed out like flared out you had pointy sudden teeth and spitting venom and would you remember
[8:59] What you asked me first off i said no i came in i looked at.
[9:04] It's literally not that serious it is
[9:06] That serious i saw that the armor was a special event cauldron armor yeah and i was like that's my profile and then i looked at you and back it i have tons of weapons on there when i used to be into that game yes i would do the tower runs and get like the unique gilded swords yep and then the event items and i like really kept track of them and while i don't like care that much about the game anymore i don't want to just delete it because or like get rid of stuff because that was something i used to care about and actually pay a lot of effort into yeah yeah so that's why i go that's my profile and i know you delete stuff when you get it like i saw you doing it in your profile when we played yeah just 10 minutes later i saw something i keep things tidy you have a dog bone from level 86 that you keep forgetting about but if you get one that's one level higher like ooh that's one level no we're at like 180 because we like played the whole game yes but, All I'm saying is I keep very, I do not have duplicate items of anything. Each one is kept for sentimental purpose or because it's like, I don't have any sentimental value with that type of item. I keep the highest level or I have the gilded and event ones. So all I'm saying is I looked at you and I was like, you didn't delete anything. Did you?
[10:20] I think it was a little sharper than that.
[10:21] It was a lot sharper than that.
[10:23] What is this sound like?
[10:24] You didn't delete anything. Did you?
[10:25] Now I don't often play with a spear right through my hand, but you thought I might be reaching for the delete button. and you actually, I think you either coughed up the spear or it came out of your- Okay,
[10:34] You were in the, what are they called? Like the spells, not the spells, like the freaking- Oh, artifacts. The artifacts. You were in the artifacts and I know you delete tons of artifacts. So I was like, do not do that. Do not salvage my artifacts.
[10:47] You are telling facts, artifacts. All right, so yeah, just so the harder thing, you'd probably say that as much as you could. All right. If you had five children and were given more money in time, how much do you like both
[10:58] Increase.
[10:59] Your family's comfort and power in society or having more children okay
[11:03] Sorry what it's.
[11:05] Close to english
[11:05] Please proofread guys i think ai can do it all for you i.
[11:09] Think they're saying if you have would you have more than five children or would you work to increase your family's influence in society
[11:15] Yes i need power.
[11:16] Okay so go for the power
[11:18] Right no like how many children would.
[11:20] You sell of your five
[11:21] No kidding at least two at least two the least two favorites they're going right out the window yeah yeah actually no that wouldn't be profitable note.
[11:28] To future grandchildren be sure to please
[11:29] Mama yeah no look okay number one i'm never having i'm not having five children no.
[11:34] No not when you can have six or
[11:35] Seven no i'm not oh.
[11:37] You want twins right away
[11:38] Right yeah i prefer twins because like then they are like the same age and after the age of five they can figure it out but like no i'm kidding no.
[11:46] Let's not go into that for legal reasons like
[11:47] I don't think more than three i'm maybe like look okay if i if plans happen and i get married young and I start having kids like early 20s, maybe I'll have like three and then when they're all like 10, I can have another few. But I don't want to have, I see a lot of families with like.
[12:06] We know some families with like a good half dozen.
[12:08] Well, they have like five kids and they're all young. And it's so, so hectic.
[12:12] Yeah. No, but we'd be there. Your kids would draw mom and dad so that we could spend more.
[12:19] Then where's all the money coming from? I'm not kidding.
[12:21] Dad, get back to work.
[12:24] I mean, I'm not kidding. But I don't really think having more than three young kids at a time. Even if it's something like I have two And then when they're five and seven I have another one Or another two and then it goes to like Twelve and ten and like Eight and six and then another two like something like that But I would not have five.
[12:43] Kids But you also, seriously You're not balancing them alone because you'd have Your husband's parents, you'd have us And like we'd be there
[12:51] To help Even still I don't want to have Like You.
[12:55] Don't want to be a conveyor belt
[12:56] No I don't care about like that aspect It just doesn't, I don't think it'd be fair, on the kids I have if I have five, because they're each going to be getting so little of my time where it's not like, I don't think having only one kid's good, but maybe a little too much time spent on that one kid.
[13:13] Well, you should have been nicer to your siblings.
[13:14] Again, I feel like three is good. If one kid doesn't want to manage their parents for a day, the other two can take the burden.
[13:21] Now, I just wanted to point out just by the by that when you were younger, you didn't really seem to care about mom and i having quality time together alone outside of the house but i would say ever since about 14 and a half to
[13:33] 15 maybe 13.
[13:34] Yeah or 12 i just i just wanted to point 12 months i just wanted to point out how beautiful it is how much you care about mom and
[13:43] I have quality.
[13:43] Time you guys should go out for dinner you hey here's a here's a here's a singer you could go and see hey
[13:50] You guys it's beautiful i think that my parents relationship.
[13:55] Is so
[13:57] Important to me and i, So that they don't notice all the evidence of a party when they get home. Not kidding.
[14:06] Right, right, right.
[14:07] That's great. That's why I take the... You guys should go to this pub.
[14:11] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[14:12] To get back to the old days.
[14:13] It's karaoke dirty. All right. Now, this one could be a long or a short question.
[14:18] How's your job at the ice cream store going? Izzy, do you own the place yet?
[14:23] Izzy, I think it's fair to say that you might have had a slight run-in with authority.
[14:27] I might. There may have been a certain manager who wasn't around for the first two months who came back and decided to make work life something I would like to call living hell. It was not ideal.
[14:43] It was not.
[14:44] I really liked work for the first two months. The ice cream parlor was great. And then when they promoted me to the cafe, the training was really bad. but you know what it was the people were really nice and they explained things well when i asked it was just that people would be like oh here's how you make a cappuccino and i'm like no no i've been taught how to do that and then i'd be asking them like a minute later how do you make an americano so like it was just i was only trained on some things other things just didn't happen half the people you know no one ordered a cortado so when i had to ask what's a cortado nobody else even knew so we just made them a macchiato.
[15:20] And some of the documentation was not there for things you needed to do to
[15:24] Close and.
[15:24] Stuff like that well no
[15:25] That's when the manager came back so then i'm gonna go through this story because look no names no title of cafe so i can say whatever i want it's not it's not.
[15:35] The starbucks in downtown toronto
[15:37] I've never worked in a starbucks and i never will so basically this manager comes back and she seems a little cold but you know what i'm kind of excited because everybody raves about her um or at least the old co-workers like oh no she's amazing she's so productive they never said she was nice but they did say she was productive and i kind of mistook the two for being similar apparently she had never asked or nobody had ever told her that i was new because when i looked at the schedule for september this was in late august i realized that i would be closing by myself for five hours that's.
[16:11] A little confusing
[16:11] I'm not done closing entails number one baking prepping all of the food for the next day or at least a good majority of it. Taking customer orders, and that will mean making drinks, doing the grill, serving them food and pastries, all of that fun stuff, and cleaning. And then once the customers have actually left, finish up any prep, clean everything. So we do not do plastic plates, and we only did some cardboard cups because a lot of people ask for ceramic. So that means doing an entire five-hour shift worth of dirty dishes because when the customers are actually in there, you can't be in the back with the sink on because you can't hear them come in. And then you have to go clean everything Then you have to close I'd say it was a decent sized patio It wasn't like it was two chairs We had four chairs with umbrellas Four chairs and then one big one under a pergola That was like three tables combined, So decent job And then the inside you have to sweep everything In the back, in the front It was a big cafe too It wasn't like a little tiny nook somewhere Then you have to go and pull all the frozen goods Which we baked fresh every morning From the freezer next to the ice cream parlor.
[17:22] And brave the raccoons, take the garbage out.
[17:24] Oh, yeah, yeah. Not to mention all the raccoons. That would go terrifying everyone in the area. So it was a big job. Yeah. You're supposed to have it all done in an hour. Oh, and then there's till, which takes at least 25 minutes in and of itself. Not to mention, we got an entirely new system that nobody knew how to operate. So I had never been trained in it because we got it two days before I went. So anyways, yeah, they were like, oh, yeah, Izzy can close by herself.
[17:48] So that meant working for five hours and then the close, right?
[17:52] No, four hours plus the hour close. Four hours plus the close.
[17:54] Right.
[17:55] So I was in from four to eight by myself.
[17:57] Yeah.
[17:58] And I had genuinely never seen the cafe that busy.
[18:01] Yeah, it was crazy.
[18:02] Like genuinely. Yeah. Even on a weekend sometimes, like on Saturdays, which are Sundays are the busiest days, no matter what. You have noticed that in every cafe I've worked at. That's coming later. But it was busier than most Saturdays on a Wednesday evening. And it was like- Because you're popular. Genuinely- out the door. And it wasn't, you know what, when it's sometimes like lined up out the door, it's fine. Cause someone's like, Oh, I'll take a butter tart and what's it? The popular cappuccino. Super easy. I can get that order done in a minute and a half maybe. And then take the next one. No, it was 50 to $70 orders. If it means anything, the work, it was actually horrible. I was so stressed out because I'd only worked in the cafe like six or seven days. I'd barely been trained freaking out but i would say i think i made in four hours seventy dollars in tips because everyone was like why are you by yourself this is crazy like crazy on these giant orders and then there was a really nice guy i don't remember his name but i he always came in when it was busy and he'd always let me finish his orders before he went he was he was always like no no i'm deciding, and it was always when i was done that he happened to be done deciding he was really nice i remember his order it was an iced coffee with a shot of sugar-free vanilla yeah, Anyways, that was a yap.
[19:13] So smoke all kids,
[19:15] Customers are done. Basically, I could have probably, I'm talking about listeners not finishing their stories. Yeah, yeah. But that was a really long one. I was freaking out. Anyways, the manager had asked me, she said, text if it's really bad.
[19:25] Yeah.
[19:26] And I texted and she never responded. Yeah. And I ended up, we closed at eight. I ended up getting out of there 1130. Not to mention my mom actually came because she was like, you cannot be there alone at like after dark in this place with tons of money. So my mom came and did half the cleaning for me Yeah Which I appreciate like crazy You had a list But the list wasn't complete No, no And then I get a I think eight paragraph text In the morning of everything I did wrong Yeah.
[19:49] Yeah Which you didn't get trained on And that was not
[19:52] On the list I've only ever closed twice before And they just had me doing dishes and sweeping Yeah, yeah Not actually showing me what to do, Unrealistic expectation They also said just follow the list And you'll be fine I crossed off everything on the list Except for one thing That I could not get a clear answer on how to do Even though I was texting the manager Because she didn't respond She responded every 20 minutes later. And it's like, okay, you know what? There was like two things on there that I didn't do. And I got like eight paragraphs. Anyways, really bad. Let's just say, long story short, it got so much worse from there. So the next big, I'll say two more big things that happened. One was that she liked to update the schedule without telling anyone a few days before.
[20:28] So this is a shared document,
[20:30] Right? Yeah, it's a shared document. But you don't get.
[20:31] Notified of updates and you have to just keep checking. It's like Google
[20:33] Slides and she adds like some weird settings on it. Yeah. So it was like a Thursday that she updated the schedule for the following Saturday. I thought I was working 3 to 8 on Sunday and Saturday. Turns out Saturday I was working 1.30 to 8.
[20:46] Now, earlier it was 3 to 8. She updated it without telling you.
[20:49] Yeah, she updated it without telling me like two days before. And then... I was like, I got a text at 1.35. Where are you? You cannot keep being this late all the time.
[20:59] When you'd never been late before.
[21:01] I had been maybe at most like two or three minutes late because there's a ton of construction in our area. And also it's two or three minutes, okay? It's not that serious.
[21:09] Literally. It's literally not that serious. I was always punctual about being on time. And if I could, I'd always arrive 10 minutes early just to get set up for the shift. And look, I mean, it's just polite to show up early. And I also really liked working. So it wasn't like it was some big, Like, oh, I have to go to work, right? But every now and then stuff just happened. It was a mix up. I would show up a few minutes late, but not like never more than 10 minutes. So this was five minutes after I was supposed to be there. I get this text like, you cannot keep, you're supposed to start at 1.30. You seriously cannot keep being this late all the time. So I called her and I was like, what I thought started at three. And she's like, no, you start at 1.30. So I'm like, okay, I get to work, I think 1.45.
[21:47] Sorry to interrupt. Are you literally supposed to check every single morning and every afternoon whether your hours have changed, you can't plan a life.
[21:53] I know, it's ridiculous. Oh, and not to mention, if it was slow, I'd get texts 10 minutes before I was supposed to come in saying, oh, we don't need you until five. What? What do you mean? Or especially, it was so annoying in the morning when I got up at like 8.30, sorry, not up at 8.30, ready to go at 8.30. So you get up at like 7.45. And look, I'm not saying like, I don't get up super early, but it's like not ideal to get up. I don't like getting up that early, but you know what I'll do. You're a teenager, you like to sleep in a little bit. Yeah, I like to sleep in. I'll do it. I won't complain about it, but it's annoying when I get up early just to get a text saying we don't need you till 12.
[22:28] Yeah.
[22:28] At like 10 minutes before I'm supposed to be there. Remember that? You guys changed your, like mom changed your entire morning plans because she was like, I'm going to drive you. And then I get a text like, oh, we don't need you. And then the next big one. So we had a problem in ice cream and cafe. We had two separate till machines to keep track of tips. Cafe got their own tips. Ice cream got their own tips. For some reason, the ice cream machine till was not working, there were no tips to get in ice cream because anybody who tried to pay by a card had to be sent to the cafe to pay.
[22:54] So the cafe was getting all the tips for ice cream. Yeah.
[22:57] So except for a few cash tips, but usually a day in ice cream, when I worked, I could get like, I'll just be honest, 120 bucks in tips.
[23:04] Yep.
[23:05] They're my co-worker and people would put you at the till.
[23:07] Because you're really good
[23:08] Everybody in the cafe would put me on till because they wanted to get tips and to share it right so an.
[23:12] Ice cream but you sorry didn't drop you get the job that the mission is to be friendly to the customers yeah and whereas other people seem to be kind of sour negative distance
[23:20] Yeah they're like oh customer or i would literally be in the back and someone would come in like oh my god right and they trudge up to the front and i was always like okay sometimes i'd be really irritated if a customer came in but guess what that's not the customer's problem yeah that's because they It's not their fault they came in when I was halfway through making chicken pesto and had stuff all over my hand, right? So I come up, I smile. Hi, how's your day going? What can I get for you?
[23:42] Oh, you compliment the hair. Oh, nails.
[23:44] Women.
[23:44] Nails. Oh, my God.
[23:46] I found ways to get tips out of every single person. Every single type of person. Every stereotype. I found it. I found a way in. I'm sorry. It's just, you know, money.
[23:55] Please use this power for good.
[23:57] No. So I was like in ice cream. Then I get a text. This was another day. oh we don't need you at three come in at four and then half an hour later we need you at three, i'm like no i'm sorry i'm already out like you told me to come at four i can't come back at three and she's like that's fine when you do come in you have to stay at ice cream for an hour this is exactly how the girl talked by the way i'm not like mimicking right yeah exactly how she talked we.
[24:22] Finished a bit tips
[24:24] Going no this is this is the bit okay sorry sorry so i get into ice cream And this is when I'm like Oh my gosh the till is still broken, So my co-worker She's really sweet She usually like we did estimate She usually gets 80 a day just because she's kind of shy And tips, Sorry 80 a day and tips just because she's kind of shy But like she knew that so she always put me on till And she didn't like talking to customers She was really nice so I liked her a lot She was never one of those people who was like customer She was always like customer Like kind of scared, So she goes and like after the end of the day they're not giving her any tips from the cafe and i was also set to be an ice cream for an hour just.
[25:05] Remember so people who were paying wanted to pay by credit card in the ice cream go to cafe they had to go to cafe so all of the ice cream tips were being booked in cafe
[25:14] Yeah so at the end of the day i they were not going to give her any cafe tips and she was going to go home with like twenty dollars in an eight-hour shift right so i got pretty like snappy I was like, no, you cannot send her home with $20 of tips. At least give her like three hours of work in the cafe. Give her tips. Give some of our tips. They can come right out of my pocket. I just don't care who they come from. I think they should come from everyone, but I'm willing to do it myself. You are not like, she cannot go home with $20 worth of tips.
[25:42] Because if all of her tips were booked in the cafe and they wouldn't give her the tips.
[25:45] I'm like, yeah, it is not her fault that the machine was broken. If anyone, this should come out of the owner or the manager's pocket because they're the ones who aren't doing it right. And there was a whole thing. I was also put in as cafe for my whole shift just because there were no tips to get an ice cream. Yeah. I get a text saying, hey, be up front with the, whoever was doing till, right? Be up front with the girl doing till about when you worked, eh? You weren't in cafe this entire time. And I was like, yeah, there were no tips in ice cream for me to get. I was up front though. Anyway, this girl who texted me goes to the manager. I get texts from the manager and this girl saying like, you're stealing pretty much. And then there was one more time.
[26:24] And you were actually trying to make it fair for your coworker in ice cream.
[26:27] I was trying to make it. I literally said, I will take the tip out of my pocket and give it to her. Yeah. Because, like.
[26:33] It's not her fault the machine was broken.
[26:35] It's not my fault either, but I like this girl and I'm going to be nice. And it's not her fault. Like, I don't know. It's just, it was a mess. And there were so many other things. I could count, like, on my hand of five more big things that happened. But those were, like, the two biggest.
[26:45] Being accused of stealing. And nobody, when I kept explaining it, nobody would, like.
[26:50] Nobody would take your side?
[26:51] Not nobody would take my side. When I was trying to say, if you have a problem with what happened with Till, take it out with the girl doing Till. Because I was doing dishes. And then I said to the girl doing till I said by the way they have some issues With like what you did with the tips I'm just gonna let them know And she's like maybe don't say that, It's like okay number one I am the only 15 year old there everyone else Is in their 20s and you're gonna Put all of the blame on the teenager Who's like new to the workforce She's worked there like 8 months like oh my I can't this place is like so I feel like I've yapped about this so much No no it's.
[27:24] Look we've all had difficult Bosses and generally when you have jobs when you're young, you don't have the best bosses because good bosses deal with older workers.
[27:32] Yeah. Anyways, the last straw, I'll keep this one really quick.
[27:35] Don't bother. Keep it as long as you need.
[27:37] Okay. It was... Yes. Right, right, right. Sorry. So this one, this, this girl and I, it was your birthday actually. And I was thinking, okay, what if I get an evening shift instead of a full day shift so that we can at least go out for lunch or something like that. Right. And I saw a girl, the shifts go from 11 to five and then four to eight. This was the shift for that day. I was scheduled 11 to five. The other girl was scheduled four to eight. I said, Hey, do you think we could swap shifts? And she's like, yeah, sure. As long as it's good with like the owner.
[28:07] Or the manager. You said to the boss,
[28:09] Can we swap shit? No, no. I said to the other girl because I wanted to make sure. And she's like, yeah, whatever, as long as it's fine with the manager. So I asked the manager and I got kind of a noncommittal response, but it was like, yeah, as long as you can find someone to take your shift. And I'm like, that's what swapping shifts do. She takes mine. I take hers. I asked twice. I asked again and it was kind of the same response. So I was like, okay.
[28:30] You got the impression that it was okay.
[28:32] Well, she didn't say, no, you can't. She said, yeah, as long as you find someone to take your shift. And I was like that's kind of a weird response But like okay So anyways day comes and I get out a text Where are you? And I'm like I swapped with my co-worker You said it was fine She's like I did not say it was fine I said you have to find someone to take your shift And I'm like I did I found her And she found me to take hers We found each other to take each other's shifts.
[28:55] I used to swap shifts in restaurants all the time It literally
[28:57] Doesn't matter All that matters is that someone's working And then she's like 10 minutes later She said the whole thing like you can't be doing this without authorized permission from me because i set up the shifts to be certain it was a whole thing and she's like you better find someone else to take your shift tonight or to take take this girl's shift tonight and i'm like that person was supposed to be me yeah and she's like well that's not gonna happen and she's like you know what it's fine she's just gonna work the whole day you don't even need to come in and it's like okay crappy negative stuff and then i was literally we were sitting at lunch and i sent my text to the boss like hey thanks for everything i was like it's been it was it been a great experience for the first couple months but i'm gonna have to move on well there.
[29:37] Was one other thing what was
[29:38] The other thing the hours oh yeah so after you after.
[29:43] You tried to make things more fair with the distribution of tips it was
[29:47] That it was that night yeah that's when i started seeing all of my hours got cut wait let.
[29:52] Me just hear the sound of your ad
[29:53] So the october schedule hadn't been fully announced but you could see it as she was working on it and i had a decent chunk of hours and i was really happy because september i was working pretty much 40 hours a week like very very full time and october it wasn't quite as much because they hired some more people but it was like 30 hours 20 to 30 hours i was like this is pretty good my hours went from 20 to 30 hours a week after that night the next morning i checked just because she said it's going to be done in a couple days keep your just check your calendars make sure everything's good i checked, 15.5 hours for the entire month.
[30:26] Not for the week, for the month. For the month. So you had six times, or so eight times less work.
[30:31] Uh-huh.
[30:32] When you tried to, I mean, my view, and I think you're right, tried to make things fair. And stood up for a co-worker against something that was not right in terms of tips. So you go from 30 hours a week down to 15 hours a month.
[30:45] And not to mention it was the crappiest shifts. It was six, sorry, six times less. It was three or four Saturdays or something like that, from five to eight. and there was one day in ice cream in October, meaning no one's going to come in and it's going to be freezing. That was a six-hour shift.
[31:01] So then you're like, okay, so things not getting well, tense, mean texts, and no hours, and so pull the plug.
[31:09] Now I'm working at a new place. They're really nice. They're not super great on hours because I don't know if it's like anything. They did say they were hiring me full-time.
[31:17] Aiming for full-time.
[31:17] Sorry, not exactly full-time. They said like, we'll start you off not full-time, but we're aiming for full-time. like that's what we're looking for and i'm the only new person they've hired and i only got like two days next week i got three days this week and they were pretty long shifts which is fine i did fine it's not like i was yelling it messing up drinks and orders like i did fine right right i genuinely like i i think i'm a good worker yeah i know what the last because.
[31:39] You're so stressed about it at the beginning right it was like because everyone
[31:42] I take everything i take it really i take it it is that serious at the beginning but i know in the last place i worked at aside from that manager i got the older employees they would say oh my gosh you're the best worker we've had for three years you heard that you were literally at the patio when she said that i really want people would say you're amazing like they loved.
[31:57] You and the owner who said the owner of this
[31:59] Last cafe oh my gosh the owner the owner of the last place i worked at at the the cafe that they gave me less hours and everything where i'm really bad so she came in and nobody liked her because she was like no no no more free food no more free drink yeah right and then she comes to me and she brings me a bagel with butter and cream cheese what kind of diabolical combination is that, and i i was like oh that looks good and she's like for you yeah and i'm like what and she's like no it's for you yeah and i'm like i thought we couldn't eat and she's like no you can yeah.
[32:35] You can so so nobody's
[32:37] Allowed to touch the food.
[32:38] But she brings you the food i
[32:40] Said i can't she's like you can yeah yeah yeah she.
[32:43] Really likes you and she was quite shocked when you quit
[32:45] So yeah She was appalled. She's like, what happened? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[32:48] Well, we were. So you got a new job. You also were entombed in an ice cave for two days.
[32:56] At the grocery store. Oh, it was disgusting. It was disgusting. It smelled like mold. It looked like mold. We were giving people half moldy food. It was disgusting. I quit in two days. It was really bad.
[33:07] It's not ideal.
[33:08] I don't have very high standards because that first cafe I worked at was pretty bad. I mean, we failed the health code. Oh my gosh, that grocery store was really, really, really bad. And cold and unpleasant. I do not eat any food from a grocery store ever again. That was so bad. There was boxes and boxes of moldy strawberries. And she said, just take the ones that aren't moldy from the little box where there's only like five strawberries. It's things that.
[33:35] Customers shouldn't know.
[33:37] Genuinely, guys, seriously, I'm not saying every grocery store is like this.
[33:41] We were at a grocery store the other day and I wanted to get something from the deli. I was like, don't. Deli, and you're like, absolutely not. Nope.
[33:47] Guys, I'm just saying, please double check the food. It's really, really, really gross. And we don't wash it either.
[33:55] Right. All right. So she's not owned the place, but.
[33:58] Maybe a little bit opposite.
[34:00] Whatever happened with the tadpoles? Frog as a pet?
[34:03] Honestly, I grew out of that. I still like frogs.
[34:05] Now, you did tadpoles last summer for a little bit, right?
[34:08] No, not at all.
[34:09] In the big.
[34:10] Not in the slightest. That was like three summers ago. Right.
[34:13] Okay. Would you rather live your life with no arms or no legs?
[34:17] No legs. Because you'd rather.
[34:19] Be able to type brush your hair, do you make up stuff right?
[34:22] Yeah, like I like walking, bro. I walk a lot.
[34:25] Why is six afraid of seven?
[34:27] Seven, eight, nine.
[34:29] Oh, I thought this was a little nightmare reference.
[34:32] Or 78. 78, nine? 78, nine. I don't know. I don't remember this.
[34:36] Seven, eight, nine. Yeah, seven, eight, nine. What is it like interacting with the normies?
[34:40] I've got some really boring. I don't really get along with them. They don't really like me. I don't really like them. I'd say that's pretty much it, but I'm not going to get into the details because that's kind of, yeah.
[34:50] This one? Would you like to read this one?
[34:51] What steps would your father start taking to keep your family safe upon hearing a zombie apocalypse outbreak is occurring and he has around 24 hours until the zombies begin to reach your town?
[35:00] Ew, I'm going to go make a podcast. Quick, grab the Nespresso's. I need my caffeine. Don't forget my yogurt. I need my yoghurt and berries If I have yoghurt and caffeine The zombies won't touch me I will teach them about the NAP I will teach them UPB And they will stop Attacking.
[35:26] I'm on the ground dying.
[35:28] No, I think- I will give them kombucha!
[35:31] I will. I would hold up mom as a human shield. I think. It'd be beautiful. I'd like to hear her thoughts on the squirrel incident.
[35:40] The squirrel incident. Oh! Okay, like, I honestly couldn't care less. Yeah, it's stupid, but like, I mean, like, it's stupid. That's literally my thoughts. It's stupid. maybe he had a MAGA hat on his squirrel he should have had a gun ready to protect his squirrel that's oh no I'm kidding I'm kidding right right right I honestly I don't care I really I it's like drama like that I just don't care maybe I could just have some.
[36:11] Kids instead if I
[36:11] Knew him in person and if I knew the squirrel I'd be like wow that's really really sad because we had to get rid of the ducks so like obviously they probably didn't get shot and killed because we gave him to a farm that was pretty nice yeah but with a situation like that unless i know it personally it's like that's sad or that's stupid or whatever like i can't believe the government did that but hey they're the government i mean.
[36:34] If you're gonna have an illegal animal at least don't parade it around on video
[36:36] Yeah so it's just like again i don't think it should have happened i think the government was wrong for that but i think maybe if they ever got any word that the government was going to come to them then like maybe they could have given it to a there's so many sanctuaries that would have taken that squirrel there's like a lot of ways to have prevented getting killed my.
[36:59] Friend and i have been collecting data on a very important issue and if you and or your daughter would like to add to it what is your favorite ice cream flavor y'all are gonna hate
[37:06] On me for this oh vanilla salted caramel oh.
[37:12] That's even snarkier than i was able to
[37:14] Achieve Yeah, it's vanilla. Look, I just feel like what I'm... Sorry, I eat the entire ocean whenever. You know, my dad would be like, do you have salted caramel? Every time I went to work. And you know what I did? Remember that time I did have it?
[37:32] Yeah.
[37:33] Yeah, so I got the pralines and cream and I put salt on it.
[37:37] That's painful to eat.
[37:38] You know how we made salted caramel lattes at the last place? Caramel in the cup. Shake some salt. Literally freaking table salt. Yeah. A double shot of espresso if it was a large, single, if it was a regular, and steamed milk. Right. There's your salted caramel latte, folks. I liked the Algonquin Lamar.
[37:58] That was pretty good.
[37:59] Algonquin Canoe. Yeah, yeah.
[38:01] All right. Do you want to read this one? It's a valley girl.
[38:03] What do you think about current Zoomer fashion trends? How do you dress? As a previous fashionista, I hate current fashion. Dude, I don't even know really what current fashion is. There's like so many different levels. There's what you see when you go to the mall Which is these ugly These freaking ugly Baby blue track pants And baby blue sweater top Get rid of.
[38:25] It No that's what
[38:27] You see on social media Is crop tops and leggings Because all of the social media women Are the women that are like kind of thick Not thick like overweight but like thick And who like go to the gym And be thick and that kind of thing And then there's like What is considered, like gothic and emo which is not actually gothic and emo i like the online consideration of gothic and emo although i do not dress like that i dress like a normal human being who's not trying to, dress skimpy or with some weird aesthetic like i don't dress cottagecore i don't dress goth i don't dress emo like no.
[39:03] You do dress a bit different
[39:04] Sometimes when we go to.
[39:06] Renaissance fair that's That's what I'm talking
[39:08] About. I have my whole like corset dress. I have my app jacket. Do you remember that? Okay, guys, I have this story. I used to be like, okay, if this had happened a year ago, I think I actually would have rather died. It happened this summer and I didn't really, I stopped caring about like what people thought a lot more than I used to. So anyways, this is what happened. We were supposed to go to a Red Fair. I was like 100% convinced it opened at 10. It opened at 11. So we get there like an hour early. Yeah. And we're just like, why don't we get breakfast instead? So we go, I have a, number one, a dress. So it has a white puffy top that's like off the shoulders. A black, it's like one of the small corsets. It's like $10. That's not actually even a corset really around the stomach. And then I forget what it's called, but it's those things that make the dresses super poofy. Like that goes underneath.
[40:00] The hoop thing. Yeah. Yeah.
[40:03] And then a black and red tattered dress skirt thing over one of those. I used to know exactly what it was called. Those big like hoop things that make that go out that make the dress poofy. Yeah. I managed to change into relatively normal clothes in the back. But the thing I couldn't get rid of was the flower headband that was braided into my hair. Yes. And I had to go and eat brunch with it. Beautiful. Everybody was looking at me. I swear, bro. Everybody was like, what is that girl doing? Frankly, I think it was a fire look and we need to make it accepted into society. Flower garlands and crowns need to become a thing, guys. I might not be the one to like promote them, but they need to become a thing. And I will get behind anybody who does. well.
[40:44] You'd have to get behind it if i got behind it because i can only do it in the back
[40:47] I would make you a sunflower okay nice all right so sorry i think fashion trends i prefer slightly more old fashion clothing i'm not one of these women who's wearing like floor length skirts and like five layers of coats but i'm also not one to really wear like crop tops i'll wear like tight shirts and i'll wear relatively short shorts but i'm not like my butt's not hanging out and stuff like that.
[41:10] So I would say I
[41:12] Take current fashion trends and make them a little less skimpy.
[41:15] Yep. Good, good. I think that one's too open. This one's interesting.
[41:19] Do you ever push the envelope to see where the limits are of peaceful parenting?
[41:23] I'm not risking that. So my dad's method of peaceful parenting is, so we're not going to do anything like physically bad and we aren't going to yell, but we will lecture for like four hours, which I honestly, I would prefer Chinese waterboarding.
[41:37] Well, so the general theory is if I take enough oxygen out of the room, it's like a physical punishment except you wanted to end however you could right
[41:45] Uh-huh i mean sometimes it would just be easier to get like hit like i'm not i'm kidding um but yeah that's no i don't do that all.
[41:55] Right oh dear
[41:56] Oh queen oh no what's.
[41:58] Your favorite female leader of all
[42:00] Time queen isabella go.
[42:03] On but it's not lilith is it
[42:06] No we don't talk about that okay got it okay guys diablo 4 look okay she was really cool she was really when we.
[42:14] First met nillis what was
[42:15] That no it wasn't it was when we found a statue and i said how do i bow what's the key combo so look okay look she's just she's cool guys she's very cool she's got like horns and like and like and like oh.
[42:28] And the voice actress
[42:29] Was great the voice actress is and like you know like she's like cool yeah look i'm not like you know a satanist but like if i was that's who i peaceful.
[42:39] Parenting is going beautifully By
[42:41] The way No Favorite female leader Of all times I don't know Mary Antoinette She's kind of funny No I'm kidding I don't care about her I don't really know any Trump Here's.
[42:52] An interesting What's the difference Between being manipulative And just convincing I think
[42:58] Manipulative Is a little more On the gaslighting side And a little bit more Willing to use lying Convincing is more like You're not gonna say You'd do this If you loved me But More like, You'd say, I have some really good evidence and reasons as to why you should do this. Here's my reason why. Maybe throw in like a smile and a wink or whatever. Maybe don't do that because that kind of sounds stupid. But manipulative is, I think, when you more take their feelings and use it against them. Convincing is like actually having evidence and reason.
[43:30] I think convincing too,
[43:31] You try to show the benefit. Why are you asking me? This is like Merriam Dictionary.
[43:36] Yeah, I think manipulative is when you are... convincing is when you try to show someone the positives manipulative is when you kind of threaten them
[43:43] Yeah here's the problem so now that I made a joke out of this the next time we do this everyone's gonna be like what is the word tree means, Because that's how the internet works.
[43:55] Okay, we can skip this one, right?
[43:56] Does your father ever stop talking? No, guys, this entire thing, it's all been him talking. He's just such a yapper. Like, he would not shut up about that cafe. Wow, what a yapper.
[44:06] Yes, early teenagers who with one word answers, that's the challenge. All right. Have you encountered a scenario wherein something you enjoyed immensely when you were much younger, then later grew out of or lost interest in, has now come back into your life or came back into your life with renewed zeal or enthusiasm?
[44:20] No, I'm a teenager. We don't get enthusiastic about anything. no i'm kidding i honestly i don't think so maybe like that online server i was talking about earlier we didn't play on it for quite a while but we i think we're starting to get back into it a bit yes that's probably a big thing because that was a huge part of my life over two years.
[44:37] Two years like
[44:38] Huge and three years even.
[44:39] Actually yeah yeah that was great all right should teenagers even pay taxes
[44:44] No yeah what.
[44:46] Genre of music do you like wait
[44:48] Actually wait now now that what i'm I'm assuming is your first tax return next year. What are your thoughts on taxes? Should teenagers even... No, actually, we don't get taxed till we're like 18. Right. Yeah.
[44:57] What genre of music do you like? I'm not...
[44:59] We're skipping this. I'm not getting into this. Okay, I quite like something called... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We are not getting into this. We are not getting into this. Why? Okay, because I like my music taste, and people I tell about it just don't get in. They're like, this is stupid. So I don't want to talk about...
[45:13] I like your music taste. No, you don't. Okay.
[45:16] No, you don't.
[45:16] I do like your music taste.
[45:17] No, you don't. You like like the three songs that I think I can play to you. Right. Even then, I see like your face. If I ever play it in the car, you're like, what is this? You should be listening to the good old Edie's music where people going, yo, and like jazz. No, like literally everything is synth, bro. Okay. We don't like each other's music taste and that is what it is. We say we do because we're nice, but we don't.
[45:41] What was I going to say about music? No, no, no. Okay. There's one song that you like that I also like. Guaranteed. Do you want to bet?
[45:50] What's the Taco Bell song? How does it go?
[45:52] Taco Bell? Burger King?
[45:54] Burger King song. Whopper, whopper, whopper, whopper.
[45:57] I don't like that song.
[45:58] Junior double, triple whopper.
[46:00] No, that makes me want to ice pick my own music.
[46:02] Oh, the caucus race?
[46:03] Yes. Oh, I should have taken the bet. I should have taken the bet. Do you want to give it a try?
[46:10] Okay, so I'm in a play.
[46:12] No, not just a play. A musical. A musical.
[46:16] And I, with much fighting, got a role that... It's a good enough for my first play. I don't want a bigger role. Yeah. But I have a song and it's called Caucus Race. And all my friends are making fun of it because I have to say gay. But like gay isn't jolly.
[46:30] See, I thought it was Caucasian Race. But I could be wrong. I'm a bird. Okay. But a pig bird.
[46:36] I'm a Madonna bird. I'm like blue and brown.
[46:40] Oh, I thought it was doo-doo.
[46:42] Well, that would explain the brown.
[46:43] Right, right. Okay.
[46:45] Okay. everybody take your place before we start the caucus race doesn't matter who will win soon the race begins, And then there's like, you know, I'm imagining the music in my head, but it's like trumpets. I'm like an announcer. Yeah. And the play is Alice in Wonderland. Did I say that? No. Alice in Wonderland Junior Musical. But it's like the updated and revised version with like the crappy songs and the crappy script.
[47:13] Sadly.
[47:14] They killed the Caterpillar. That Caterpillar was like such a good character in the other ones. And in this one, it's like, it's bad. I don't know why we did the script. It was really, it's bad, but it's okay. I got to roll.
[47:25] Was there more in the song?
[47:27] Yeah, there's a lot more in the song.
[47:28] Anyway.
[47:29] My voice doesn't go there. All right. That's for the ensemble. My voice ain't doing that. No, it's like really high. It's like this later. It's like, some may stare and some may scoff. And like, I can only do it in like that falsetto, like whatever. I have the voice. I'm not going to get into it. I'm not going to get into it.
[47:47] Where do you feel the culture is regarding parenting practices in your age group? But they don't really talk about it.
[47:53] There is this little parent in my age group. Guys, I met actual like public school teenagers.
[47:58] Oh yes, she did meet public school teenagers Their
[48:01] Parents don't give a crap.
[48:03] Should I get into it? I think it's worth mentioning that Izzy did say Oh father, I feel my childhood has been all of a twist deprived By a lack of time in government schooling
[48:16] I have tried public school.
[48:18] She tried public school Yeah,
[48:22] For a month, a great month, yeah That's the worst experience of my life.
[48:26] Towards the end, let's say. Guys, I feel so bad for y'all. So towards the end, I wouldn't say it was a full month. It kind of petered out. We get these phone calls. Someone in your household.
[48:35] No, someone. Automated. Sorry. Literally every day. A member of your household in grade 11 has missed the following period.
[48:49] The following nine classes.
[48:51] Period four. Yeah. Period three. No, I usually mind for period three. Period two. Right. Period one. Yeah.
[48:59] So you gave it a good honest shot.
[49:02] I gave it a good honest shot for two weeks and I was like, let me drop out. And you guys are like, no. So I was like, if you aren't letting me drop out, I am simply going to drop out myself and skip every class except for manufacturing because guys, I'm going to be so honest. Manufacturing was the only class I had with a male teacher and it was the only good class in the entire like four classes I took. Yeah.
[49:22] Yeah.
[49:22] I had a drama teacher. I don't think- You're begging for feedback. I literally was like, how do I make this better? And she's like, you'll figure it out. Y'all like figure it out. No, no. She's like, you'll figure it out. And she always shut her eyes and shrugged whenever she talked to me. Yeah.
[49:35] What is your freaking problem?
[49:36] Teach me. You're getting paid and you got like the whole summer off. You're getting paid ridiculous amounts of tax money. Use the money and your brain where you went to college for like four years and teach me. I wanted to get better at acting. I'm in a play. I would like to learn how to act better. And she's like, you'll figure it out. and then my fitness teacher had us sitting in a freaking classroom all day.
[50:00] Well no because you did also get to make motivational posters
[50:03] I made a no pain no gain get up and train and it was supposed to be like a feminine like and there was like some picture of like a dingy it was like that, you ever seen that meme where it's like if we had men only gyms and it's like basically a sewer with like lifting weights that was the metal around in a That was the picture I used with like a half, like a 50% opacity Chad plastered over top of it. So like, look, it was, it was really bad, but it was, it was kind of funny. It went up on the screen. I would, I've not heard the guys ever laughed that hard in that class. It was really funny, but we were in that classroom and she was like motivational. And I, she's like, is there anything more you'd like to focus on in this class? What would you find motivating and inspiring for your fitness journey? I raised my hand. And she's like, yes, Isabella. And I'm like, I like to actually work out. And she's like, I'm sorry. And I was like.
[51:00] Can we actually exercise?
[51:01] Because like, you're talking about all this motivational. You know what I'd find motivating? Playing some dodgeball, lifting some weights, doing some cardio. I mean, we do have an entire fitness room, but we've kind of been up here. Like, it's not even on the same floor. Yeah, she got pretty mad at that one.
[51:15] Can I just ask you a tiny quick question, though? This may sound like I'm taking it personally, and you can judge for yourself. why do you think that your female gym teacher sounds more masculine than your imitation of me
[51:25] Why do you think that your female gym teacher has more masculine than your imitation of me oh.
[51:32] Good squeak all right last one do you have any entrepreneurial ideas or aspirations
[51:38] Aspirations yeah i mean look i know last year i wanted to start a farm yep this year i wanted to start a cafe two years ago i wanted to start, a farm. A few years before that, I wanted to start a restaurant. A few years before that, I wanted to be a YouTuber. So it changes a lot. Right now, I'm kind of vibing with the whole cafe life. I think I could run it really well. I've worked in two places and I'm using the best of both. So I think when I'm older, I'm probably going to open up a cafe.
[52:04] Beautiful.
[52:05] All right. All the training and now leeching it off of my boss. I will literally, I'm trying to be so nondescript about it.
[52:10] I'm like, so where do you guys order your food from? And how do you decide what's like good and and bad like do you do you do a lot of taste testing with customers or do you just kind of guess at it and he gives me the weirdest looks he's like why are you asking that the.
[52:25] Enemy has sent you other cafes have sent you to pick my brain and no
[52:29] No but it's in the job interview and i'm telling him about the last cafe i worked at because he was asking like are you trained in barista and i'm like yeah i know i can do a lot of that and he's like so so what did they do and i'm like oh he's like did they bake it fresh and i'm like well baked fresh was freshly out of the freezer yeah i didn't say that i was quite proud of myself and he's like not pathetic.
[52:56] He literally go
[52:57] He goes whenever i tell him about the last place i worked he was pathetic pathetic he's.
[53:02] A good boss right pretty good
[53:03] He's good he's good he's interesting he's kind of intense but not mean yeah but just like he.
[53:10] Cares a lot he cares a
[53:11] Little okay look obviously it's his business, I would be really concerned if he didn't care about it, but a little too much sometimes. Sir, you've taught me how to steam the milk three times this shift. Right. I know how to do it. Just because I made a mistake the first time this week does not mean I've lost my capability as of how to steam the milk without getting crazy amounts of bubbles in it. Yeah. Maybe you should look up the difference between a cappuccino and a latte because you have us making them the exact same.
[53:43] Right.
[53:44] Good. When I talked, he was talking today, he was asking about me being homeschooled. He was like, so you just don't do school? And I'm like, no, I do. And he's like, oh, like I said, just like mostly online classes and I'm pretty much homeschooled. And he's like, oh, that's good because schools, they don't teach you crap. And I'm like.
[53:58] No, they do teach you crap. Yeah. So I guess you could
[54:01] Go both ways. Yeah. And I was like, no, that's true. And he's like, you learn so much more by, by living. That's what he said. I'm like, yeah, that's true.
[54:09] Certainly a lot more than dying. All right.
[54:11] Yeah. All right.
