00:00So there's this new thing called hot desking at work.
00:03Have you heard about, have you heard of hot desking?
00:05So I didn't know that there was a term for it until you told me, but this happened to us.
00:11So yeah, there's YouTube videos.
00:12I mean, listen, hot desking is an office organization system, which involves multiple
00:17workers using a single physical workstation or surface during different time periods.
00:22That sounds like some space alien government sending a message to us.
00:26Don't worry, humans.
00:27We are your friends.
00:28No, you're not.
00:29I've seen V.
00:30I know what's going to happen.
00:32You're going to rip your lizard face off and eat us.
00:34I know what's going to happen.
00:35But so hot desking is this new thing.
00:38And it sounds really annoying to me.
00:41So it's super annoying where no one really has their area or their desk.
00:44Anybody can just jump on a desk or an area.
00:47Even if your stuff's there, it's not yours.
00:49And the whole idea is it's like, you know, we share with everybody.
00:53There's no one has their own space.
00:56No one's confined to a specific spot or area.
00:58And by default, working in radio, we deal with hot desking on the regular.
01:02All the time.
01:03Because there's other day parts that come in and do their shows.
01:06So we come in.
01:07There'll be crumbs all over the place.
01:09Chairs have been moved around.
01:11Clothes.
01:11I mean, people leave their sweatshirt.
01:13And it's like a...
01:13It smelled like booze this morning.
01:15It did smell like booze on the radio station this morning, which is becoming more and more
01:19common.
01:19I don't know what that says going on around here.
01:21I don't know.
01:21But it really is.
01:23But so the other day we came in, we were on vacation and we came in and somebody had
01:27just basically the office squatted us.
01:29Yeah.
01:29In our actual office.
01:30This is not the studio.
01:32This is a place where we actually have desks.
01:34We got stuff.
01:35There's stuff in there, you know, computers and everything like that.
01:37Kevin has the most stuff.
01:38So we got office...
01:39I know.
01:40Mine.
01:40We got office squatted and hot desked at the same time.
01:45And it's really annoying.
01:46But this is a new thing.
01:48But I thought maybe people should text us.
01:49Like, if you work in a place where you get hot desks, where people just come in and set
01:52up stuff in your area.
01:54And you're like, but I need to work here.
01:56Like, I need my area to get stuff done.
01:58Whoever hot desked us took stuff out of Kevin's desk to use.
02:02So found a notebook and a pen and stuff, went in his drawers, then went to my desk, moved
02:07stuff around, and then even adjusted the chair.
02:10You know how you can adjust the suspension?
02:12Right.
02:13Tightened it up so when I...
02:15Chair suspension.
02:15The suspension.
02:16Yeah.
02:17Right?
02:17Is that what it's called?
02:18It is.
02:18We'll go with it.
02:19It sounds tough.
02:19I like it, man.
02:20I went to sit in it, and it was so stiff.
02:22So this person just made themselves at home.
02:25Well, let me tell you...
02:27It was annoying.
02:27Let me bust it down for y'all who hot desk at your work and you bother other people.
02:31If you're a parent, you can understand this.
02:33Because I didn't realize this could be the term, but your kids sometimes will hot bed you
02:37at one o'clock in the morning.
02:39They'll just...
02:40It happened to me last night, Trey.
02:41Did it.
02:42Oh, my gosh.
02:42I was so mad.
02:44It was like five different times.
02:45I mean, they'll just come and jump in your bed.
02:47And it's like, but this is in your bed.
02:49Right.
02:49And by the way, this is less comfortable than your bed because there's two adults and sometimes
02:53two dogs in this bed.
02:55Go stay in your bed.
02:56Right.
02:57You know what I'm saying?
02:57Yep.
02:58So, parents, if you hate that at home with your kids when they hot bed you, then don't
03:02go to work and hot desk your coworkers.
03:04Yeah.
03:04You just can't get away from it.
03:05No.
03:06People are hot desking you here, hot desking you at home.
03:09That'd be frustrating.
03:11It is a little frustrating.
03:12Can't wait to have kids.
