It's Ticked Off Tuesday! Jared dives into the wildest, most frustrating complaints from listeners. First up, one listener vents about mandatory attendance meetings at work—because there’s nothing more infuriating than fighting LA traffic for hours only to find out the meeting has been canceled last minute. Jared breaks down why these pointless meetings are a universal workplace scourge!

Next, we’re heading to Thanksgiving, where a listener shares the anxiety-inducing experience of being the “new person” at their boyfriend’s family dinner. With limited seating options, they were stuck choosing between balancing a plate on their lap, waiting for a dining table spot to free up, or awkwardly standing in the kitchen. Jared unpacks the unwritten rules of hosting!

Finally, we hear about a workplace drama straight out of the future: a listener’s new coworker accused them of using AI to write their reports because their grammar was “too perfect.” Jared hilariously breaks down why this coworker might need to calm down with the AI paranoia and why being too good at your job shouldn’t lead to workplace drama.
