0:00 yeah but like Twitter itself was bloated with employees as it was yeah that's already like I think so yeah they let off a lot of people and it seems to be working okay yeah [Music] what do you guys think about work from home you think it's whack you think it's a hoax you think it's ████ nonsense I kind of feel like we've been work from home like before work from home I think it depends on what the company does anything what's so funny huh from home it's ████ silly huh yeah yeah you think it's so ████ silly huh yeah aren't you one of the biggest supporters of work from home I'm rarely home when I'm doing my actual work I'm like all over the ████ world I hate on work from home because I'm just envious so I like to ████ on it I
0:50 think it depends on the work and the company that you're in is what I think so what about Twitter what about Twitter so Elon Musk sent a notice to staff at 2 30 in the morning on Wednesday this past week if you're watching this uh next November he was on East Coast time that's March um to remind them that working from home is not acceptable so uh this has been a problem for for that Elon says for Twitter since he's taken over the company he's like hey work from home is Wackadoo ████ we're we're phasing this out please everyone start showing up the ████ work I don't know anyone that's more productive from working at home than working like as a team together I agree in a person unless you're like an extremely high performer self-motivated but even then that's a lot to expect those guys in a team environment have
1:41 Synergy but Bart don't you think that a physical trainer could be great if he's working from home with someone who's at Parkville but if his office is the gym wouldn't the gym be more effective open your mind a little bit ████ Jesus a little bit so like yeah a personal trainer who works at barbell okay he's working at home but your person is in like the person that they're working with is at the gym he's at the gym he's coaching them through Facebook yes yes way more productive that way right he's a real Hustler yeah I would also like to note that I don't think that it's uh important information or a fact that Elon sent this message at 2 30 in the morning that just proves that elon's working late that has nothing to do with like you have to come in as an employee at 2 30 in the morning
2:31 he just happens to send that out it's done isn't that fine yeah like if it's programmers and do they and then also like how distracted do they get so Elon was noting that half of the San Francisco headquarters of Twitter was empty the day before so at 2 30 in the morning he's like yo what the ████ is going on you have to show up unless you have some kind of crazy reason why you you can't be here you need to be here yeah but like Twitter itself was bloated with employees as it was yeah that's already like I think so yeah they let off a lot of people and it seems to be working okay yeah hmm I don't know about that I could tell you one thing from personal experience with like barbell stuff when during covid everyone's working remote and some of the biggest miscommunications we had was because we worked remote like weather like oh like what this Swatch or what Swatch we're talking about this
3:21 this material whatever and even if you FaceTime and you zoom or whatever and then they'll be like oh man this is ████ taking two weeks this deadline is coming up I'm like let's just meet each other at each other's house we literally go there we put the materials on the table five minutes done wow and I'm like if this is happening in this part of the company how many other things could have been squashed or done in like five minutes but it's dragged out every time there's been some ████ that I've ever been part of it was because everyone was in the same place at the same time yes it's like remote ████ it's like playing telephones it's like I'm sniping at you remotely because of whatever because I'm just I'm supposing something about you instead of like let's just talk about it accumulate figure it all out right then and now everyone that was involved work it out boom don't bring a better touch right but what if it's not necessarily creative work what if it's just boring data entry ████ that you don't even need people don't even have a say like 100 people don't even have opinion they just have to do it I mean they do customer
4:11 service from work from home like sometimes I'd be calling in they're like helping me out there's a baby crying and like you know there's like that's true there's certain things I feel like you can do work from home but if it if your job relies on other people down the pipeline and you might bottleneck a project I think that's where it could mess it up coding somewhere yeah if you're debugging Croatia yeah like who cares but if you're part of a team it's different if you're doing only fans if you're Elon Musk and your track record includes things like being the richest man in the world or like building some of the biggest companies ever I think you should listen to the guy as a business owner a little bit yeah I agree with that it's kind of crazy you made a little torch sure and it's sold out within seconds that's awesome you know what I mean it's like I just you know we recently saw this other article it's like Twitter was bought for 44 billion dollars now worth 20 billion granted
5:01 there's a recession all that stuff it's like there's flaws so he's obviously so he's got to fix him if I was running Twitter dude it would be all okay what no one would be allowed to share personal thoughts and feelings keep that ████ to yourself my dad would have never bought something for 60 mil if it's only worth 20 mil no way yeah yeah but that's why I think it depends on what the company is what what you're doing what culture you're trying to build in that company if he's trying to build a culture where everybody works together then yeah like a lot of tech companies the reason why they have so many employees is because like most tech companies don't make money like they don't make profit they don't ████ sell anything they just evaluate it and then they get a lot of funding from Venture capitalists that throw money in
5:51 it and then you got to spend it you can't just let the money sit so what do you do you go to Silicon Valley Bank you ████ open up an account and they hold your money and lose it I was so with you until that last part damn but also same with the invisible damn it but the way that they do that's how they run their hustle is that hey look look at our company it's growing right you got to hire more people you got to have all these ████ redundant jobs you grow bigger bigger bigger we need three cities to come in look at this we're ████ in 10 cities now we got whatever right and then they're like oh my God this s███'s blown up like crazy let's throw more money exactly from all your shares it's like modern day ████ multi-level marketing it's a pyramid scam ████ I got a buddy who's an Aeronautics engineer and he has a team of people that work under him and they
6:43 all work from home and it makes perfect sense because somebody at a wind tunnel is doing a test and they all get the data to wherever their homes are and then they just crunch the numbers and they send back data immediately they don't they wouldn't need to be in the same place yeah like it totally makes sense that like they're working from home there's like things like that that I'm like okay that makes sense they're basically just looking at the screen the whole time just going click click click send it back send it back and they're just like processing yeah and then from like a business point of view maybe they're not spending money on like a per hour salary or like an office space and desks and like furniture and all this stuff and then when you measure those numbers against like what they're actually doing for the type of work that could make sense but the second there's actual decision making and like team building and like other things that like Joe said like you're relying on another person to make a decision in order for you to make a decision and communication has to be in flow it's like that that's
7:33 different of course there's to be way more effective when people are in the same space together yeah yeah so according to the labor department um 72.5 of business establishments said their employees teleworked rarely or not at all last year um The Wall Street Journal reported that figure was an increase from 60.1 percent in 2021. yeah so in 2021 the amount of people who were teleworking rarely or not at all was 16.1 percent so like a 12 12.5 came back in the workforce that's a lot though yeah it's a lot wow but there's still like you know 20 almost 20 or almost 30 we're out I don't know I'm extroverted so I like working with people I like the idea of going I'm introverted and I like working with people I think it depends make it more productive that way like for example way more productive 100 I can't imagine a
8:24 creative brainstorm session just like on email even through Zoom is hard yeah you're not feeling the emails I don't know maybe the whole experience but what I do not like and this can happen on Zoom too are those stupid pointless long meetings with No Agenda that wastes a lot of time and that I think can happen in like the water cooler conversation there's a lot of like redundancies and like she feels yeah there's also sometimes you're in a writer's room with somebody who say maybe burned our SNL because of a sexual harassment charge and like I'm just talking like maybe like maybe this happened generalities and like yeah maybe their name was like let's say shimmerys and you're in a writer's room with them and you're pitching stuff but it's almost like they're working from home because they're not even really there if
9:15 they're kind of on their iPad the whole time but then you're oh the whole room's pitching stuff but then he's just kind of like looking at his iPad going like that's cool you know that is that is that productive I guess is my question I don't think so or would you guys do you guys think that um do you guys think that government or city employees uh do you think we should have a say if they have to go to work or work from home oh ████ you know what's crazy I was just up in Sacramento and So Silent Mike is from there which is a big you know like government type City he was saying so originally like their Capitol building is so full that they lease like almost quarter mile blocks outside all of those Office Buildings are all for government workers yeah but now since everyone works remote all of those buildings are now empty but
10:07 the tax dollars are still paying for all the leases they got to go to work I was like that's a ████ conundrum I'm like holy ████ like if your tax dollars are paying for these people to work do you think that's like kind of a cop-out if they all get to stay home and because it's already bad enough when city employees are not monitored they end up ████ around like we see that so much on these specials you know yeah like it's a little bit weird when they can't be they can't be fired yeah we don't know what the ████ they're doing they can be caught on ████ Chris Hansen's like getting pizza to some 12 year old and they're still employed yeah like the animal Control Department got a like a big bus because they were all just like writing fake invoices for all this work they were doing but they would just go to the gym chill in their car yeah and they would just ride all these huge ass like for tons of money they're like oh I
10:57 handled this today I had eight 18 calls so many opossums today yeah I had 13 raccoons this week how do you even audit the government though because if the government's supposed to like audit themselves that's like the cop going through an internal investigation of their own Department with their own homies which doesn't happen thank God even in that in that case they went to all the like 18 dudes that were doing that and then they go who's their supervisor they go to that lady she's doing it too they go to the person above her she's doing it too so it's like when does it stop yeah I would too not the president DMV got just shut down because the corruption was too deep it was a great DMV that's where I got my license from if the government is able to audit themselves businesses should be able to say how much taxes they have to pay thank you we do do that but then they go Julie you
11:47 might be wrong yeah I think I owe a dollar imagine lying about work and you're not even working from home you're going out and working and you're still lying so if you're just not leaving your house in that way isn't there a judge who was like yeah did build all these hours against the city like I've been judging all the time that girl yeah I've been judging and judging and judging it was that woman that said she'd done all these cases and did all these things I'm like hey we have you on video like not judging what is she doing eating lunch yeah dude she's going to Sbarro and ████ and she's like find the bar real New York Pizza ████ that's the biggest crime of all that's what got her actually dead or rights it's a Subaru camera and maybe uncovered the other not judging stuff they were pissed about that like that's not authentic New York I saw that too that was crazy authentic Italy pizza dude she was robbing the city it was
12:37 nuts so borrow check it out [Music] thank you [Music]
