00:00Team, I just quickly want to reiterate, cell phones are not permitted to be out at your desk.
00:05Okay, let me say that again.
00:06Cell phones are not permitted to be out at your desk.
00:09We deal with a lot of sensitive information.
00:11We don't want to compromise a client's account.
00:13So cell phones are not permitted at your desk.
00:15It's in the guidelines.
00:16We explained it to you when you were hired and you agreed to it.
00:19So I've been seeing cell phones out.
00:20I just want to make sure that we're all on the same page.
00:22Okay, Veronica, can I see you before you leave the meeting?
00:27Thank you for staying behind, Veronica.
00:28Um, I, I just need to talk to you about something.
00:31Um, we've tried to contact you a couple of times at home about some, uh, time sensitive matters.
00:37And it looks like you're not responding.
00:39You never respond.
00:40Um, when we try to communicate with you, I've tried email texting.
00:43I've even tried calling a few times and it's just impossible to get ahold of you.
00:48Can you shed some light on why?
00:51No problem.
00:52Yeah, I'm happy to shed some light on it.
00:53I'm providing my family the same courtesy that I'm providing you while I'm here at work.
00:57So when I'm at work, as you just mentioned in the meeting, I'm not allowed to have my
01:00phone.
01:01I'm not allowed to check in on my family and make sure that they're okay, which I understand
01:04we, we do deal with sensitive information.
01:06Um, so when I'm at home with them, I'm not doing anything that's work related.
01:10Um, my contract, as you mentioned, says nine to five.
01:13So after five, I'm unavailable.
01:16Did you, did you want to see the contract?
01:18No, I don't need you to show me your contract.
01:20Um, how do we fix this?
01:22Because I, we need to be able to contact you.
01:25There's always a solution.
01:26So you can provide me a company cell phone and pay me from five to midnight.
01:31I don't assume that you're going to have to contact me after midnight.
01:34Um, and I will be more than happy to be available, but I will need my same salary from five to
01:38midnight as well as the company cell phone.
01:40We can't do that.
01:41We can't pay you indefinitely and we can't provide a cell phone.
01:45Um, it's more of sort of being a team player, if that makes sense.
01:49I'm sure it makes sense to someone, but I'm available nine to five.
01:53You can pay me for my time after that if you need me to be available, but no, I'm not giving
01:56up time with my family, my alone time.
01:58I'm not giving up my time outside of this office to you for any, for anything.
02:03So, um, I am a team player from nine to five Monday through Friday.
02:07Okay.
