We were just talking about this a second ago, and

Past simple

I thought it was worth turning on those mics and having this conversation.

It's occurred to me a bunch that if I was turned out into the real workforce now, as I am, with my.

Whatever I'm gonna call them, skills, just to be generous to myself, I would not be able to get any job.

If you could wave a magic wand and people, first of all, if they didn't know who I was, that might be an advantage.

But if I was thrown out into the world and I don't have the ability to go, hey, maybe you've seen some of my videos on YouTube or whatever.

You watch me in the old days, come on, let me work here at this bar.

If I didn't have that to work with and I just had to go by my skills, I think I would starve to death.

I mean, history teacher, I think, you know, you could do it.

Yeah, but they have to know I don't have a. I'm not disciplined about it.

I have a lot of weird knowledge, but I can't teach a class, and

Except if a kid was really dumb, I'd really go after him.

No, I mean, after school, I'd, like, follow him and then.

I thought you meant instead, like, I'm gonna kill you.

I'd put a bag over my, you know, letting me get you.

Gee, Mr. O', Brien, why you have that bag on your head?

And then I forget that, oh, the McDonald's wrote my name on the bag as they passed it.

You think that's the only thing that would conceal you is a bag?

I'd be wearing a original Late Night with Conan o' Brien shirt.

And I'd have written on it, this is mine.

Gee, Mr. O', Brien, why do you have that bag on your head?

Before you were known, did you have any, like, entry level regular jobs that weren't in the industry or anything like that?

As we know, I worked at Wilson's House of suede and leather.

I don't have real skills in the world, and this.

Look, I'm gonna say that about myself, but I'm questioning, like, Sona.

When I met you, you were a very hardworking, efficient, knowledgeable person.

Because suddenly, oh, there's lots of free white wine around in network events and.

And suddenly you're just getting paid to be on camera and tell me to fuck off.

And what I'm doing with this exercise is saying you cannot.

You cannot go into entertainment or anything like that.

You have to get a job where they don't know who you are.

You can't trade on the fact that you might be a known person.

And for you, you can't do anything podcast related.

There's a reason you're bringing this up.

Also the fact that you took no responsibility in what happened to me and how I've devolved as a person.

And so no part of my job is ever serious.

And I realized early on my job was to be fodder for your bits.

And so everything else just fell by the wayside.

You always have to see your own hand in things.
