Speaker 2: 1:15

You know our schedules have been really weird lately.

Speaker 1: 1:19

I didn't know. Yes, I know who told you I didn't know, you knew.

Speaker 2: 1:28

I didn't want to tell you, because this is so weird we're recording in the middle of the day again. Yeah, it's a Tuesday again.

Speaker 1: 1:36

Again.

Speaker 2: 1:36

This is not how it's supposed to be, no, and this is not how we're going to continue doing this.

Speaker 1: 1:43

No, I think this is the last Tuesday for a while.

Speaker 2: 1:46

Yeah, until next week.

Speaker 1: 1:49

Until next Tuesday.

Speaker 2: 1:50

Until next Tuesday, we'll see no Friday, I guess. Okay, you're good and I'm good, and it's weird because it's Tuesday. Last Tuesday we recorded an episode.

Speaker 2: 2:04

We did last tuesday we recorded an episode. We did and um also last tuesday, which is today tuesday, because this is coming out on a friday yeah, so if I say last tuesday, then it was april 1st and we wait, this is not coming out on a friday it's not. It's coming out on tuesday right not this tuesday, next tuesday next tuesday. This is coming up, we're not recording on a friday and we're not releasing on a friday no I'm so confused yeah, well, we're releasing the episode on tuesday

Speaker 2: 2:38

yeah and uh, the leftovers from friday, yeah so this will be released in exactly a week yeah, that's how it works, that's a lot of pressure. I don't think I'll have time you have a week I don't think I can. No, okay, so I don't know where I was going with that no anyway no wonder it's no, I guess not. So let's talk about our week from last Tuesday. Yeah, Because that was the last time we recorded.

Speaker 1: 3:08

Yeah, that's true. So this Tuesday, yeah, so we have a week to go through.

Speaker 2: 3:12

We already talked about Tuesday because we recorded so Wednesday.

Speaker 1: 3:15

What did we do on Wednesday? We went for a walk.

Speaker 2: 3:18

We did.

Speaker 1: 3:19

At my place.

Speaker 2: 3:20

Yeah, we both had the day off.

Speaker 1: 3:22

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 3:25

And we went for a walk and it was really nice If you hear voices in the background it's ghosties, it's ghosties. It's the middle of the day, my daughter and my oldest are here. My daughter found some friends and they're going to play with the bunny, so they're making a lot of noise. Yeah so yeah. Wednesday we went for a walk. We did and it was really nice.

Speaker 1: 3:43

It was.

Speaker 2: 3:43

It was the first time I went for that walk with you this year.

Speaker 1: 3:46

Yeah, it's true and it went well. Yeah, I thought it was really nice.

Speaker 2: 3:51

It was, and then Thursday.

Speaker 1: 3:54

We started working again.

Speaker 2: 3:56

It was less nice. You start because you started work first.

Speaker 1: 4:01

Yeah, I started working an hour earlier than I usually do, but I also, you know, ended one hour earlier, so that was nice. It was such a weird week. We had other tasks at work and I mean I kind of liked it, the new things we did. But the first thing I did was a huge mistake. I was scanning the articles into the system and sending them in boxes. I was scanning a whole palette of articles and tie them to one box one empty box and just send it out into the system, and I shouldn't have done that.

Speaker 2: 4:53

You're supposed to put the articles into the box first. Yes, it went quick though, oh yeah.

Speaker 1: 5:01

When the system was working as it should. But yeah, I liked doing that. It was kind of fun. That was pretty much what I did the entire day. I didn't do the mistakes it was just once.

Speaker 2: 5:15

I was making mistakes all day yeah, all day every single box yep, empty.

Speaker 1: 5:20

I sent all the pallets in empty boxes. Yeah, so that was my work day on Thursday.

Speaker 2: 5:29

And I went into work at three and I worked until midnight and I was doing the same thing, except I was doing smaller amounts. And I was really nervous about working evening shift, because I'm not a night person Not really. No, I wake up really early and I go to bed fairly early, and that's just how I function. So I wasn't really that sure how I was going to survive the night, but once I got into the flow of everything everything it felt fine. The breaks were the difficult part.

Speaker 1: 6:06

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 6:08

But we were given quite a bit of Fika during the week.

Speaker 1: 6:12

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 6:12

I mean that first night we got oh yeah, we got boxes of chocolate.

Speaker 1: 6:18

Yeah, because I didn't take any.

Speaker 2: 6:20

Yeah, I took a lot. Okay, I had like I took a lot. Okay, I had like a I took a box every break.

Speaker 1: 6:27

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 6:28

So I had the chocolate and I was having like chives and hot chocolate and I was pretty much trying to keep myself awake with sugar, okay. But yeah, the breaks were the hardest part because I really felt myself falling asleep until I got up and started working again. Then I was like, oh, this feels pretty good, I can keep going. The last 20 minutes of the night the system got really slow and the system was getting really tired.

Speaker 1: 6:56

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 6:57

So that wasn't very fun because it was just taking forever to get to the next step and everything.

Speaker 1: 7:04

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 7:04

So then I was like I give up. If you're giving up, I'm also giving up.

Speaker 1: 7:09

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 7:10

But yeah, that's basically what happened. Then I went home and I brought my pallet home and I went. No, I didn't go straight to bed that first night. I went home and I ate everything because all that chocolate made me want more food when I got home.

Speaker 1: 7:25

Okay.

Speaker 2: 7:25

I had like three sandwiches and then I tried going to bed but I can't really fall asleep because I have so much sugar in me and food. But yeah. And then I woke up. Like the entire week that I was working night shift. Every morning I woke up I felt like I was hungover and that wasn't something I was prepared for.

Speaker 1: 7:49

No.

Speaker 2: 7:49

My body was so sore on what was it Friday morning? Yeah, I had a headache and I was so tired.

Speaker 1: 7:57

I didn't want to do anything. Speaking of Friday morning, that was when the system was really slow for us when we started, but uh, yeah, it got worse. I feel that our schedules would have been good if I got the night shift and you got my day shift yeah definitely because I'm more of a night person. But the only problem is that I don't have a driver's license and I don't have a car.

Speaker 2: 8:28

No.

Speaker 1: 8:28

So that's the only problem with that, and I don't live that close to the work either.

Speaker 2: 8:35

No.

Speaker 1: 8:35

On Thursday, by the way, we high-fived.

Speaker 2: 8:39

We did.

Speaker 1: 8:40

Just did the really hard high-five. Oh yeah, I hurt myself and I think I hurt you yeah yeah, and then I felt bad yeah, then I think on friday we did the hug too yeah, I missed you yeah I missed you so much throughout the week. I mean, I, that was all we saw of each other yeah everything else was just text and then, uh, on saturday it was the stairs where you were really. You were late for oh my.

Speaker 2: 9:08

God, I had a moment there. I came into work I've worked at this place for at least eight years now and this was the first time I showed up to work with the wrong shoes. We have steel-toed shoes and I just came in with my regular shoes and I realized that while I was in the parking lot when I got to work. I was like oh no.

Speaker 1: 9:34

That's a problem.

Speaker 2: 9:35

Yeah, it worked out for me in the end because I ended up getting moved to a non-truck zone, so it was okay, but but still it was kind of embarrassing.

Speaker 1: 9:47

It was the first time in eight years and like towards the end of my time yeah, um, and by truck we mean like forklifts, forklifts right.

Speaker 2: 9:57

Um, also on saturday, when I came into work, there was a line of people to clock in and I was so tired, I was so out of it at this point because you would think, oh, I will get used to evening shift. No, every single day got a little bit worse and I was more tired and I was more sore and I was still feeling super hungover. So I was standing in line to clock in and I was thinking this line is so long, I'm going to be so late for work. And I stopped to talk to one of the girls in line and I was laughing about my shoes and thinking I'm going to be late and she's like why don't you just clock in? Then Just go to the front of the line and clock in, you don't have to wait.

Speaker 1: 10:47

No.

Speaker 2: 10:47

And I felt so dumb. I was like I'm so tired.

Speaker 1: 10:52

Yeah, help, yeah, that's what happens when you're so tired.

Speaker 2: 10:57

Yeah, but I think that one of the other girls I was working with said that she did the same thing.

Speaker 1: 11:02

Okay, so I didn't feel that bad. No, that feels better.

Speaker 2: 11:06

Still, oh my God, yeah, it was awful.

Speaker 1: 11:09

Yeah, and I mean I talked to people about like making mistakes, you know, while doing the scanning things, and I got everyone feeling so much better about themselves when I told them about my mistake. When I told them about my mistake.

Speaker 2: 11:28

Okay, good.

Speaker 1: 11:30

Everyone were like oh, that feels so much better for me yeah perfect.

Speaker 2: 11:36

I know that I definitely made at least a couple mistakes. The mistakes that I made, I tried to fix them. I did get help with a lot of them, but there were a couple I just I might have just let slip by Like ah, okay, whatever, yeah, the box is long gone by now. Yeah, I mean, the longer I wait, the further it goes. Yeah, and if I call for someone now, it's going to take like 10 minutes.

Speaker 1: 12:01

Yeah, and no one will notice until you're out of the system anyways. Right, so it's not like you're gonna get crap for that.

Speaker 2: 12:10

No one's gonna call me. And be like you made a mistake. Be like that was a long time ago.

Speaker 1: 12:15

Who are you? I don't even work there anymore. No, yeah, oh, by the way, this was your last week.

Speaker 2: 12:26

It was my last week. On Saturday I emptied out one of the departments that I had worked in that I had started up or helped start up. Yeah, I was a part of that group and, yeah, I helped set it up and then I made sure it was empty at the end and then I closed it down for the last time and then I cried because it was emotional yeah, and I was exhausted.

Speaker 1: 12:49

Yeah, and I feel like were the other people that also started it up with you when you closed it down no, I was the only one you were the only one who started it and closed it.

Speaker 2: 13:01

I closed it that, that's cool. It was full circle for me, and that department really I don't know, it's kind of a big deal for me. I loved working in that department.

Speaker 1: 13:14

Yeah, but you got transferred from that.

Speaker 2: 13:17

Right To something that ended up fitting me a lot better.

Speaker 1: 13:22

But you still would have preferred to work both.

Speaker 2: 13:25

If I could work both, that would be great. And I kind of did in a way, because I got transferred to returns and then I was still doing the returns for this department.

Speaker 1: 13:34

Yeah, and when they needed you in that department.

Speaker 2: 13:38

They just called for me.

Speaker 1: 13:39

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 13:39

So I kind of was still going back and forth.

Speaker 1: 13:42

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2: 13:43

Yeah, so yeah, it was a big deal for me. I was also really tired.

Speaker 1: 13:47

Yeah, and then Sunday happened, and that was chaotic. For me.

Speaker 2: 13:53

And me.

Speaker 1: 13:54

For you too.

Speaker 2: 13:55

Yeah, but you start.

Speaker 1: 13:56

Yeah, okay. Oh yeah, it was the last day of scanning things into the system. I did that and then at the end of the day, I just did the inventory. Yeah, that's it we had a lot of problems, though the boxes were supposed to be like divided in 10, but those boxes were running out, so we had to fold new dividers that same day fold new dividers that same day, so it was a lot of extra work. Yeah, other than that, it went well.

Speaker 2: 14:30

Yeah, and you guys must have done a lot because I didn't have to go into work. Apparently, I went grocery shopping during the day and you and one of the other girls was messaging me saying that night shift didn't have to come in. Well, the thing is that apparently they had let everyone know during night shift, like towards the end of that shift on Saturday, that we didn't have to come in on Sunday. But I was dealing with the chaos in my old department and we like finished up in there like pretty much the minute we were supposed to clock out. So I didn't get the information. So I spent Sunday like wondering do I even need to go into work today?

Speaker 2: 15:20

I didn't know if I had to go or not, and you and this other girl were saying that I, yes, you told me that I didn't know if I had to go or not. Yeah, and you and this other girl were saying that I yes, you told me that.

Speaker 1: 15:27

I didn't Just say me.

Speaker 2: 15:28

You were telling me that I didn't have to come in, but I wanted to hear it from like a boss.

Speaker 1: 15:34

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 15:34

Not just rumors. No, so it can be confirmed. Not that I think that you're lying to me, but because I want my actual boss to talk to me.

Speaker 1: 15:43

Yeah, Because she doesn't do that. I mean rumors. That was what I got it from.

Speaker 2: 15:48

Yeah. So I texted my boss and I was like do I even have to go into work today? She was like I don't know, I'll get back to you, which is my usual answer from her, but she actually did get back to me, yeah.

Speaker 1: 16:00

But I also asked who knows things like that, and he told me that there were no evening shifts.

Speaker 2: 16:07

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 16:07

So I texted you that yeah, so you got it confirmed.

Speaker 2: 16:11

Yeah, but again it would have been nice to know from my actual boss. Yeah, then I didn't have to go to work and I'm sorry that you were working.

Speaker 2: 16:21

But, it was so nice to not go into work after the three days of nights Sorry, the three days of nights, that could be a title. It was awful. I hated it. Well, I didn't really hate it while I was there, but I hated how it affected my body. I don't like when my body is super sore. So, yeah, I just I got to stay home and I watched TV, yeah, and I hung out with sick child and it was nice. So yeah. And then yesterday happened. Wait, what day is it?

Speaker 1: 16:57

Today's Tuesday. Yeah, we talked about Sunday.

Speaker 2: 16:59

Oh my God, I still don't know what day it is Yesterday's Tuesday.

Speaker 1: 17:02

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:02

We talked about Sunday. Oh my God, I still don't know what day it is. Yesterday was Monday.

Speaker 1: 17:07

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:07

And we worked together.

Speaker 1: 17:10

Again, again.

Speaker 2: 17:11

Oh my God, we worked at the same hours and we actually got to work together.

Speaker 1: 17:16

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:16

Which is so rare. Oh yeah, and it was my last day of work.

Speaker 1: 17:21

Yeah, it feels like that almost never happened my last day of work.

Speaker 2: 17:27

Yeah, it feels like that almost never happened, yeah.

Speaker 1: 17:28

No, it was very rare for us to get to work together. Yeah, and on the last day it was perfect, yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:32

We only got to work together for a couple hours.

Speaker 1: 17:34

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:35

And then you got taken from me, you got ripped from my hands. Yeah, we were just clearing boxes off of shelves.

Speaker 1: 17:43

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:44

And it was going really well. But then you got taken and I had to do it by myself and I mean I lost a little bit of motivation for a bit there.

Speaker 1: 17:53

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:54

I mean it came back and I did get to throw boxes over the edge, over the fence. Yeah Down to the lower floor which was fun and I had pretty good aim for that and I think that one of the guys who was watching me, he was like you get the boxes into the cage, like every time. I was like, yeah, he's like you should be a soldier, like I don't think so okay yeah, I feel like there's enough of those in my family I don't want to join in that.

Speaker 1: 18:23

No yeah.

Speaker 2: 18:25

It was a weird comment, that was all.

Speaker 1: 18:28

Yeah, it was. At the end of the day I came back to you.

Speaker 2: 18:32

You did.

Speaker 1: 18:33

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 18:33

We had lunch together and we got to go out onto the balcony the new balcony together. And that was really nice, and we got candy. Yeah, you did come back to me at the end of the day.

Speaker 1: 18:51

And we talked and walked around and looked at the birds that were flying around in the warehouse and we didn't work that much the last half hour.

Speaker 2: 18:55

No, I don't think a lot of people did. A lot of people had a last day yesterday and I was one of them, and I was also one of the people who didn't do that much towards the end of the day, but it was a good day, I enjoyed it and I didn't cry until after I left the building.

Speaker 1: 19:14

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:15

I did say I was going to cry. I don't know if I was specific as to when.

Speaker 1: 19:20

No.

Speaker 2: 19:20

I think I said all day.

Speaker 1: 19:22

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:22

Or something.

Speaker 1: 19:23

But you did, you know, during the day at least. So I mean after.

Speaker 2: 19:30

The sun was out.

Speaker 1: 19:31

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:32

Yeah, I cried when I left the building.

Speaker 1: 19:36

Was the last time with the girls around the table.

Speaker 2: 19:40

Yeah, and I hugged them, and usually hugging is my weak point, that's when I start crying. So yeah, that's a trigger.

Speaker 1: 19:48

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 19:48

And that was the end of that.

Speaker 1: 19:51

No more work there for you.

Speaker 2: 19:53

It's been a really long time working there. It was like just routine you go to work and then you go home.

Speaker 1: 23:26

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 23:27

Okay, then I'm a little less upset.

Speaker 1: 23:30

Okay, no, this movie. I felt like this movie would be a good opportunity to see this movie because I've been thinking about that before but I never came around to it until now, and since we have Charlie Sheen.

Speaker 2: 23:50

Every other night.

Speaker 1: 23:51

Yeah, every other night.

Speaker 2: 23:53

No, not night. Every other movie night.

Speaker 1: 23:56

Almost Okay. Then I thought, yeah, why not this one? I mean it gets really dark at some points in the movie, Most points of the movie. Actually, it's a war movie. Yeah, I feel like it doesn't really put the Americans as the heroes in this movie. It doesn't really put anyone in as the heroes, or yeah, I mean Charlie Sheen is kind of a hero, but he does bad things too for his character, but you know, he learns.

Speaker 2: 24:33

Do you regret your decision?

Speaker 1: 24:35

In a way, I regret showing it to you.

Speaker 2: 24:40

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 24:40

I don't regret watching the movie myself.

Speaker 2: 24:43

Okay.

Speaker 1: 24:43

And now I've seen it and yeah, it is what it is.

Speaker 2: 24:47

This was very similar to Tears of the Sun. I didn't like that movie.

Speaker 1: 24:53

No.

Speaker 2: 24:54

I did not like this movie.

Speaker 1: 24:56

At all.

Speaker 2: 24:56

No, no, I'm sorry, but it makes me feel better knowing that you did not know you hadn't seen the movie before either.

Speaker 1: 25:05

Had you already seen the movie, knowing what was in the movie, and then thinking I'm gonna show this to lauren yeah because maybe she'll like it yeah that would make me upset I mean, I knew it was a war movie but maybe not that it was this bad, no, okay I didn't know what they were doing, what they were going to do or anything like that.

Speaker 2: 25:25

No, I mean, what was the plot? Even they went through? What was it? Cambodia? They killed a bunch of people, they tortured people. Yeah, the lieutenant was a bad guy, and then Charlie Sheen was a bad guy, and then they were in Vietnam. They were in Vietnam. Cambodia Well, they were mentioning Cambodia, though. Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1: 25:47

It doesn't matter no.

Speaker 2: 25:48

They were somewhere.

Speaker 1: 25:50

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 25:51

During the Vietnam War. And then it ended. Charlie Sheen flew away and that was the end. I mean A bunch of people died.

Speaker 1: 25:58

Yeah, he went in as a very naive person, thinking it wouldn't be as bad as it was character arc for him. You know, showing what maybe some people think about war, that it won't be as bad as it actually is. Yeah, and I think this movie is also showing that war is a bad thing. It's not just guns blazing and yeah, I don't know. It feels I don't know how to explain it really, but some movies kind of romanticize war, war yeah and makes it look cool and better than it is.

Speaker 1: 26:43

This movie shows the bad sides of war, yeah, and he really got peer pressured into doing bad things. So you didn't like this movie. No, no.

Speaker 2: 26:55

This was.

Speaker 1: 26:56

The worst movie ever.

Speaker 2: 26:58

Bottom Charlie Sheen movie ever.

Speaker 1: 27:01

Yeah, it was fairly well made though.

Speaker 2: 27:04

Okay, I was trying to sleep to not watch this movie, because I had already decided I didn't like the movie, but you kept waking me up.

Speaker 1: 27:14

it's like I don't want to if I have to watch movies I don't want to, you should watch movies you don't want to fine, I watched most of it I mean I don't see what the big deal is. We both know it's just a movie. Though yeah, I don't like the torture. No, I don't see what the big deal is. We both know it's just a movie though.

Speaker 2: 27:33

Yeah, I don't like the torture. No, I don't like the torturing of these people who seem innocent.

Speaker 1: 27:41

No, one is tortured. For real, though, no, but Rambo movies were fine.

Speaker 2: 27:47

That was Rambo.

Speaker 1: 27:48

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 27:48

That's different.

Speaker 1: 27:50

Okay, so you want the romanticizing war movies.

Speaker 2: 27:56

If it's Stallone, then sure, okay, yeah, I'll watch that. But yeah, a lot of them like even I don't know like Predator even was kind of a war-ish movie for one alien thing.

Speaker 1: 28:11

Yeah, you felt sorry for the alien predator thing.

Speaker 2: 28:15

Yeah, probably no, but no, I'm, I'm thinking it's like a war movie, it's like military that you liked yeah, yeah, but in general I don't really like the war military.

Speaker 1: 28:26

Okay it's. I don't get it. It's more like the war dramas you don't like. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2: 28:31

Yeah, I don't like the torture. No, yeah, I wasn't into the movie.

Speaker 1: 28:37

No, no, and that's fine.

Speaker 2: 28:39

Okay, good, please don't get mad at me for not liking torture. What do you mean? I just don't, that's just yeah.

Speaker 1: 28:49

I hate you now.

Speaker 2: 28:50

Okay, fine, hate me then.

Speaker 1: 28:52

Torture is my favorite thing ever.

Speaker 2: 28:55

I believe it. Okay, let's move on.

Speaker 1: 28:57

Let's move on to Göta Kanal. Eller Vem drog ju proppen?

Speaker 2: 29:01

Can you be more? Yes, I can Thank you, can, you just be more.

Speaker 1: 29:07

I can be more. You want me to say uh more.

Speaker 2: 29:12

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 29:13

Yeah, okay Now, this movie is a war drama, no it's not. It's not at all.

Speaker 2: 29:19

Well, it's a kind of war.

Speaker 1: 29:21

Yeah, it's a competition, it's a boat competition. It's about a race, a race with boats, boat race.

Speaker 2: 29:30

It's a competition with boats. It's also a boat race, okay.

Speaker 1: 29:36

How would you explain it?

Speaker 2: 29:38

You're right in both ways.

Speaker 1: 29:40

I mean you can take a pick Two rivaling companies making boats.

Speaker 2: 29:46

I don't know if they were, were they companies?

Speaker 1: 29:49

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 29:49

I just thought they were people.

Speaker 1: 29:51

No well, yes, there are two rivaling boat companies. Who wants to sell their boats to an oil billionaire? Yeah, they have a race to impress a rich guy who wants to buy boats yeah, that's what the movie is about them racing and trying to reach the goal first. This is like a Swedish cannonball run.

Speaker 2: 30:22

Oh yeah, I guess. So yeah, on boats.

Speaker 1: 30:24

Yeah, but only two competitors.

Speaker 2: 30:27

Right.

Speaker 1: 30:27

So this movie is a bit lighter in tone.

Speaker 2: 30:31

Than Platoon yeah.

Speaker 1: 30:37

Uh, yeah, movie is a bit lighter in tone than platoon. Yeah, uh, yeah, I feel like this is a more more like a funny movie and also magnus is. It is in this. Yeah, magnus harenstam. Yeah, was that good it's good, good. What did you think about this movie I like before I say what I think about. I'm so angry, I'm so mad.

Speaker 2: 30:53

Why are you always making fun of me? I like the movie a lot more than the first movie we watched.

Speaker 1: 31:01

Okay, the one you hated.

Speaker 2: 31:03

Right.

Speaker 1: 31:04

Yeah, okay, yeah, that tells me a lot.

Speaker 2: 31:08

I hated this one a lot less than the first movie.

Speaker 1: 31:12

Okay.

Speaker 2: 31:12

It was funny, I might have fallen asleep a little bit on and off, okay. But I also had coffee yesterday and was really tired today.

Speaker 1: 31:23

Yeah, I let you sleep this time.

Speaker 2: 31:26

Just a little bit.

Speaker 1: 31:27

No, I try to wake you up. I try to keep an eye on you, if you're sleeping or not.

Speaker 2: 31:34

Yeah, but I feel like I fell asleep a lot more to this one, like actual falling asleep and not forcing myself to sleep.

Speaker 1: 31:42

Okay.

Speaker 2: 31:43

I didn't mean to do that I was trying to stay awake, but it just kind of happened. I did like the movie, I did find it funny.

Speaker 1: 31:50

Good.

Speaker 2: 31:51

I don't think it was a top movie for me, though, Okay. There were other Swedish movies I liked a lot more. Okay, it was still good yeah.

Speaker 1: 32:01

I think this is a funny movie. I really like this one. This is a movie I've grown up with. I always thought it was funny. It's more of my style, like slapstick and you know the guy who's in the canoe, mm-hmm. I always liked that.

Speaker 2: 32:19

The poor guy.

Speaker 1: 32:20

Yeah, he's so unlucky.

Speaker 2: 32:22

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 32:22

I'm always like in the way.

Speaker 2: 32:25

He wasn't in the race though.

Speaker 1: 32:28

No, he wasn't in the race, he just happened to be in the same areas as the people racing yeah.

Speaker 2: 32:33

Poor guy. It was really funny. Yeah, I'm trying to convince you that I thought it was really funny yeah, because I did think it was really funny, good yeah.

Speaker 1: 32:42

So I really liked this movie and thought that we should absolutely watch this and it has Magnus in it.

Speaker 2: 32:50

Yes, that's important.

Speaker 1: 32:52

He's funny in this.

Speaker 2: 32:53

He is. He's a debt collector.

Speaker 1: 32:56

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 32:56

It was funny, anything else.

Speaker 1: 32:59

No, I don't think so.

Speaker 2: 33:00

Speaker 2: 44:16

Behind your back For a date.

Speaker 1: 44:20

Oh for a date.

Speaker 2: 44:21

Okay, yeah, you pull them close and you put your arm around their shoulder or around their waist.

Speaker 1: 44:26

And then I squeeze.

Speaker 2: 44:27

Yeah, squeeze the life out of them. Yeah, like you're trying to get like jelly out of them.

Speaker 1: 44:34

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 44:34

Yeah or no? Like a toothpaste, just start at the bottom and start squeezing all the way up, and then all of their organs come out of their face and I open my mouth. Go for a kiss.

Speaker 1: 44:53

Rat organs.

Speaker 2: 44:55

And then you kill Jackie.

Speaker 1: 44:59

Sorry, Ratty.

Speaker 2: 45:02

But before you kill your date.

Speaker 1: 45:06

So the Interview, your date, it's the employer date and a rat.

Speaker 2: 45:15

Also a rat All in one. But number five is you should ask thoughtful questions. So at the end they'll be like, okay, but do you have any questions for me? And you should show your interest by asking things like what does success look like in this role?

Speaker 1: 45:33

Okay.

Speaker 2: 45:35

And what are the biggest challenges the team is facing?

Speaker 1: 45:39

The turtles, I'm guessing, yeah.

Speaker 2: 45:41

I guess that would be bad guys yeah.

Speaker 1: 45:43

Shredder Okay Is I'm guessing? Yeah, I guess that would be bad guys. Yeah, shredder Okay Is a bad guy, a paper shredder, or Well, yeah, maybe.

Speaker 2: 45:50

Okay.

Speaker 1: 45:51

I know that there's a bad guy called Shredder.

Speaker 2: 45:54

Okay, also, can you describe the team culture?

Speaker 1: 45:58

Teenagers.

Speaker 2: 46:00

I guess.

Speaker 1: 46:00

Yeah, they want me to describe the turtles.

Speaker 2: 46:04

You're supposed to ask these questions. Oh, okay, so Jackie is supposed to answer them for you.

Speaker 1: 46:12

Ask Jackie about the turtles.

Speaker 2: 46:15

About the turtles, yeah.

Speaker 1: 46:16

Okay, yeah, because that's the team.

Speaker 2: 46:19

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 46:19

And I'm their mom, oh, because the rat is like a father figure, right. Yeah, and I'm. He needs a maid.

Speaker 2: 46:23

Yeah, and I'm their mom, oh, because the rat is like a father figure, right, yeah, and he needs a maid, yeah. So I don't know if you're just like a spy next door kind of situation.

Speaker 1: 46:34

Yeah, maybe.

Speaker 2: 46:35

Yeah. Makes sense, just take out their trash and Jackie will be like yeah, I like you, yeah.

Speaker 1: 46:41

So am I.

Speaker 2: 46:42

Jackie, you're Jackie in that situation. Okay, so am I, jackie, you're Jackie in that situation.

Speaker 1: 46:44

Okay, so I'm like Jackie dating Jackie.

Speaker 2: 46:48

Right the human Jackie dating the rat form Jackie.

Speaker 1: 46:53

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 46:54

He's very self-centered because he named his child after himself. So, yeah, it makes sense. He would date himself I think Number six handle difficult questions gracefully, so if you get asked a question that you don't know an answer, to stay calm and think aloud.

Speaker 1: 47:13

Okay, oh yeah, I do that, and then I can like do the shoulder ruck.

Speaker 2: 47:25

Shrugging.

Speaker 1: 47:26

Shrugging and do a creepy smile.

Speaker 2: 48:16

If you get anything at all.

Yeah, you're just a maid. Yeah, I'm the mom.

Speaker 2: 48:20

Speaker 1: 48:32

Yeah, so thanks for last night. Yeah, that kind of a mail.

Speaker 2: 48:37

And then you personalize it by mentioning a specific part of the conversation.

Speaker 1: 48:42

Oh yeah, I'll be mentioning a special part of the conversation. Yeah, I'll be mentioning a special part.

Speaker 2: 48:46

His tail. Yeah, in a way I mean he's dead at this point so, or a body part, you know. I liked your liver yeah.

Speaker 1: 48:58

It was the best part. It was red Brownish. It was a brownish. Red Brownish. Red Brownish. It was a brownish red. Brownish red.

Speaker 2: 49:05

Liver red. So here are some things not to do at an interview. Snot, snot to do at an interview.

Speaker 1: 49:12

Okay.

Speaker 2: 49:13

Do not arrive late or too early.

Speaker 1: 49:17

Okay, you have to be exactly on time. Yeah, Wouldn't it be good to arrive a little bit early though?

Speaker 2: 49:27

Not too early.

Speaker 1: 49:29

No, not like five hours early or so.

Speaker 2: 49:31

Yeah, because that could be disruptive. Do not dress inappropriately. Being too casual or too formal can signal that you don't understand the company culture. So if you don't dress up as a turtle, they're not going to let you be a turtle.

Speaker 1: 49:47

Okay, but should I have like an apron on?

Speaker 2: 49:51

Maybe yeah. To really sell that you want to be a mom or a maid.

Speaker 1: 49:57

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 49:57

A maid that becomes a mom.

Speaker 1: 49:59

Yeah, turtle maid, turtle maid.

Speaker 2: 50:01

Turtle maid, do not speak negatively about past employers. Okay, focus on what you learned from past challenges.

Speaker 1: 50:14

Other jobs yeah.

Speaker 2: 50:16

Yeah, Like I can pack.

Speaker 1: 50:18

I can pack, I can pack, I can pack yeah.

Speaker 2: 50:23

Don't ramble or go off topic.

Speaker 1: 50:25

Don't ramble.

Speaker 2: 50:27

No, ramble, keep, ramble out of it. I don't think they'd like that.

Speaker 1: 50:31

No, so I should just go like straight to the point.

Speaker 2: 50:36

Right.

Speaker 1: 50:37

I want to be a mom.

Speaker 2: 50:40

I want to be your mom.

Speaker 1: 50:44

Let's do it rat, wink, wink.

Speaker 2: 50:51

Do not lie or exaggerate.

Speaker 1: 50:53

Okay.

Speaker 2: 50:55

Be honest about your skills and experiences.

Speaker 1: 50:58

Okay, so how do I do that?

Speaker 2: 51:04

Not lie. Okay, if you have to ask that question. That's a whole other problem. How do I not lie?

Speaker 1: 51:11

Yeah, I don't. What did it tell the truth?

Speaker 2: 51:16

What's that?

Speaker 1: 51:17

Weird word Truth, truth, truth.

Speaker 2: 51:21

Truth. Do not be too passive. Failing to show enthusiasm makes you seem uninterested. Do not interrupt or talk over the interviewer. Okay, let them finish their question before responding.

Speaker 1: 51:36

To be honest for a bit, I really don't like to hear myself when we're talking, because I interrupt you all the time.

Speaker 2: 51:43

Oh, I interrupt you.

Speaker 1: 51:44

Oh.

Speaker 2: 51:45

All the time as well.

Speaker 1: 51:46

Okay, I don't notice that as much as me interrupting you. I'm like, can you let her talk?

Speaker 2: 51:54

Well, it's always been a problem that I interrupt you or at least fill in your words. Oh, that kind of annoys me about myself is I try to help you, just to keep things going when maybe I should just let you finish your thought.

Speaker 1: 52:10

Yeah, I mean I don't have that much of a problem with that.

Speaker 2: 52:16

Okay.

Speaker 1: 52:18

And I mean mostly when I interrupt, it's not.

Speaker 2: 52:25

Again. Okay, you want to just take it in Swedish? Yeah.

Speaker 1: 52:29

Okay, no, it's when See.

Speaker 2: 52:32

You can say the word yeah, good job, can we move?

Speaker 1: 52:35

on End of the sentence. No, I'm kidding.

Speaker 2: 52:38

Oh yeah.

Speaker 1: 52:38

Wisp, wisp. It's when we're talking about movies. That's when I interrupt you the most.

Speaker 2: 52:46

You get so excited though.

Speaker 1: 52:48

I do and it annoys me when you're trying to talk about the movie and I'm like and you start eating me yeah. I'm like the Cookie Monster, but with movies, that movie's for me. No, no, no, nom, nom.

Speaker 2: 53:06

I'm like the Cookie Monster but with movies, that movie's for me Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom Anyway. So don't do that.

Speaker 1: 53:14

Okay.

Speaker 2: 53:15

Don't go in not knowing anything about the company. So do your research. Make sure you watch all the episodes of Turtles.

Speaker 1: 53:24

Yeah, and all the movies.

Speaker 2: 53:25

All the movies. Don't not ask questions. Have at least a couple thoughtful questions prepared. Saying I have no questions makes it seem like you're not interested.

Speaker 1: 53:42

Yeah, I can see that yeah, like nope, I'm good yeah everything's clear here.

Speaker 2: 53:49

So do you have any questions for jackie when you go out on the date with him before you squeeze his brains out?

Speaker 1: 53:56

how long is your tail?

Speaker 2: 53:59

like you can't see.

Speaker 1: 54:02

That's it.

Speaker 2: 54:05

I expected longer.

Speaker 1: 54:06

Yeah, it's a disappointment.

Speaker 2: 54:09

Do not check your phone.

Speaker 1: 54:11

Okay. What if I written down questions on my phone?

Speaker 2: 54:15

You better memorize those questions.

Speaker 1: 54:17

But I'm nervous.

Speaker 2: 54:19

Yeah, no, don't be overly focused on the salary too soon.

Speaker 1: 54:26

Okay, so don't talk about pizza too soon.

Speaker 2: 54:30

Right. You might attract unexpected or unwanted guests.

Speaker 1: 54:34

Oh.

Speaker 2: 54:35

Um, while salary is important, bringing it up too early makes it seem like that's all you care about.

Speaker 1: 54:42

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: 54:43

Um, so wait for them to bring it up.

Speaker 1: 54:45

Yeah, what if they don't?

Speaker 2: 54:47

Then that could be one of your prepared questions at the end. Ah yeah, pizza yeah.

Speaker 1: 54:55

Yeah, that's what I'm going to ask you.

Speaker 2: 54:58

Don't show poor body language Like. I said don't show your poor body.

Speaker 1: 55:06

Make sure you work out before.

Speaker 2: 55:07

Yeah, do that 50 get that 50 done, so that you can say I also did that 50 once today yeah, not just two years ago no, uh, don't sound too rehearsed or robotic, which is a problem for you.

Speaker 1: 55:23

You are a robot. That's very much a problem for me.

Speaker 2: 55:28

So speak naturally and adjust your responses based on the conversation. Adjust your voice or program it to not be on robot mode.

Speaker 1: 55:40

Human mode. Okay, I can try that, I can try that, I can try that.

Speaker 2: 55:44

I can try that.

Speaker 1: 55:47

Is this okay? Do I sound less robotic now?

Speaker 2: 55:52

No, no Okay.

Speaker 1: 55:54

Darn it.

Speaker 2: 55:59

Here are some incredibly inappropriate things to do at at an interview. Yeah, uh, five. Number one is, uh, answering a phone call or texting. Okay, checking your phone, texting or answering a call mid interview shows a complete lack of respect and professionalism okay, I just have to take this no, hello, do not do that.

Speaker 1: 56:24

Okay, I'll text instead Do not, do not?

Speaker 2: 56:32

Who said something about interrupting? Do not bring food and eat at your interview.

Speaker 1: 56:40

Okay, no pizza.

Speaker 2: 56:42

No, okay, unless the interviewer offers you something. Pizza Eating or chewing gum during an interview is unprofessional and distracting.

Speaker 1: 56:51

Okay, blah.

Speaker 2: 56:53

Do not make inappropriate jokes or comments.

Speaker 1: 56:57

That's a problem. That's my biggest problem.

Speaker 2: 57:01

That can instantly ruin your chances.

Speaker 1: 57:03

Yeah, I would probably say like you rat bastard. Okay, Wink, wink.

Speaker 2: 57:10

Do not overshare your personal problems.

Speaker 1: 57:14

My other dates.

Speaker 2: 57:17

My past experiences.

Speaker 1: 57:20

Other rats I dated.

Speaker 2: 57:23

They were the real rats. Yeah, um discussing family drama, relationship issues or financial struggles makes the interview awkward oh yeah and the last one, which is really going to complicate things for you do not flirt with the interviewer. Making suggestive comments or inappropriate compliments is highly unprofessional and will likely get you immediately disqualified.

Speaker 1: 57:54

I love that.

Speaker 2: 57:55

That was the first thing I said, I think maybe you shouldn't be winking or touching or squeezing your interviewer like a toothpaste tube.

Speaker 1: 58:09

No, maybe not, or touching. Asking about the tail.

Speaker 2: 58:13

Yeah, don't ask about his tail. It might be sensitive, and that's all I got, yeah, so good luck to you.

Speaker 1: 58:22

Yeah, I really yeah. So good luck to you.

Speaker 2: 58:24

Yeah, I really need it. Yeah, I hope you get your sewage cleaning.

Speaker 1: 58:28

Turtle made rat wife Pipe and wipe. Mom, Was it pipe and wipe or something like that? Yeah.

Speaker 2: 58:35

Yeah, pipe and wipe services and company or something. I hope you get the job.

Speaker 1: 58:45

Yeah, I want to meet the turtles.

Speaker 2: 58:47

Yeah, that would be cool.

Speaker 1: 58:48

Yeah, and the rat.

Speaker 2: 58:50

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 58:50

I like the rat, jackie Rat.

Speaker 2: 58:52

Jackie Rat All right. Well, that's all I've got for today.

Speaker 1: 58:55

Awesome.

Speaker 2: 58:57

As we wrap this up, it is April now, so back to being good. Would you like to do a weight update since giving up?

Speaker 1: 59:09

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 59:10

First day weighing ourselves since we took a break with our weight journey.

Speaker 1: 59:15

Yeah, so do you want me to start?

Speaker 2: 59:18

You can start.

Speaker 1: 59:19

Okay, I gained 1.3 kilograms.

Speaker 2: 59:23

Okay, that's all right, I gained 1.3 kilograms. Okay, that's all right. I gained 8 kilos. Yeah, that was expected, because I really let go and I have been consuming a lot of sugar lately and so coming back from that is going to be difficult.

Speaker 1: 59:40

Yeah, but I feel like you got this.

Speaker 2: 59:43

You usually lose a lot of weight, though I don't expect to lose that much tonight no, maybe not tonight, but um, yeah, I mean, I don't want to say anything because, the last time I said something, it went. It blew up in my face yeah but uh, yeah, I should have some progress by the next time we record in over a week we're not recording for another. It's gonna be over a week, week and a half we're gonna have a lot to say next week, yeah, so, matias, what is currently ruining your life? Um what is current there's not much that's ruining your life, right now?

Speaker 1: 1:00:24

No, you seem to have it pretty good. Yeah, I'm pretty good, I feel good, everything is good, I guess I. I mean it's the confusing day shifts, or like last week's days, since we had like a weekend in the middle of the week yeah, and that's oh the the day confusion, yeah yeah, that's, that's the thing, other than that. Oh yeah, I didn't even tell the people about me not me oversleeping saturday and sunday.

Speaker 1: 1:01:01

Yeah, because it was weekend, because it was weekend and my alarm didn't go off and I didn't know why it didn't go off and I realized that on Sunday night.

Speaker 2: 1:01:11

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 1:01:12

That was annoying.

Speaker 2: 1:01:14

But yeah, I'm gonna have to agree that the whole day confusion and the weird scheduling and everything is out of control, it feels like.

Speaker 2: 1:01:23

But give it a couple couple weeks and we'll be back on track yeah because that night shift thing, it really messed me up because I was waking up in the morning thinking, oh, it's sunday, and then by the evening it's like, oh, it's monday. And then I'd wake up again it's sunday, and then it's monday again, suddenly in the middle of the day and then yesterday was monday but it felt like friday and today feels like friday because we're recording.

Speaker 1: 1:01:53

So I've had two fridays in a row yeah, last week you said it was friday because we had a movie night.

Speaker 2: 1:02:01

Yeah, oh, my God, I've been so confused.

Speaker 1: 1:02:05

Friday, all week.

Speaker 2: 1:02:07

The rest of this week's going to be weird. Next week is probably going to be weird, but the week after that, hopefully, I'll be back on a good schedule.

Speaker 1: 1:02:15

So yeah, Day confusion.

Speaker 2: 1:02:17

Yes, I'm all out of sips.

Speaker 1: 1:02:20
