Hello and welcome to episode 177 of what most people think and what a what a week we're in here

what a ways exactly what you want in the run up to Christmas isn't it it strikes as snow

you know that bit where you have to do loads of shit the real like absolute pressure point

of December and it's been it's being fucked hard and what we get is this phenomenon of people

it's always happens on snow days as people saying that they can't get into work and some people

have legitimate reasons that you know if your train is not going you can't get there but it did

remind me actually of when I did office work a long a long time ago now and there was there was

medium-level snow one day and this girl who always loved throwing a sickie anyway she rang in

and said to a line manager I can't I can't get in you know obviously she has to do the voice

of when you're when you're not coming in to work I can't get in and he was like Kelly you know

we live two streets down from each other this is a legendary tough yeah can you get on the

central line and get in stop being ridiculous I mean I I one thing I do remember from that

was occasionally having to field those calls and do people still do the sickie voice you know

when people bring up go oh yeah yeah just something about being here was made me need to whisper

yeah I'm sick but I'm also in a fucking library um yeah I mean there was there were several

clichés weren't they which is uh I'll be up in a half the night being sick oh half exactly

half the night was it half the night being sick that's a conveniently round number isn't it

or if it was half the night which half because if it was the first half I think you're in recovery

get yourself in this is what most people think this is a broadcast you know you know comedy can

be a bit like oh yeah don't victim blame you know what I'm saying that there are a lot of fucking

sugars out there in Britain there are be honest with yourself post covid there's a lot of people

that are still lingering with the idea that that work is an occasional favor that they do
